This week Joe is joined by Andrew, Mark & Luke as they tackle one of the giants of Doctor Who literature - a book that redefined what the EDAs could do and informed much of what was to come. What are their favourite characters, concepts and moments? Is this a bold new era or a ambitious mistake?
Joe & Ken; 'why is a mouse when it spins?' Two podcasts collide with spectacular results as we enter an alternative Hamsterverse where Ken Moss edits each episode and it sounds thoroughly professional. Plus loads of laughter.
Joe & James; with Joe in the position of defending the era! CONTENT WARNING: This is not a celebration of series six. Much discussion of complexities, ambition and dissatisfaction thereof.
Joe & Frazer; ‘No Charles!’ ‘Yes, Mother!’ Hang time is out, plot is in. Potential racism, ableism and classicism is in too! Hops in the TARDIS that make no sense get Joe in a spin. But it’s still pretty.
Joe & Frazer; ‘Smutty!’ It’s hang time with the crew; cricket, cocktails & costumes! We’re beguiled by the lavish finery, delicious buffet and decorative dancing!
Joe & Craig; ‘Naww let’s get this heap inside…’ The politeness between bitter enemies, Delgado turning off Dudley, overspending, prison tales, quotes, and lots of shooting!
Joe & Craig; ‘even if we have to use force!’ Stories about Levene, scandal about Joe, revelations about Blu-Rays, sexy impressions, facts that shock and huge hardons for Delgado!
Joe & Craig; ‘quite a dolly!’ Why does this story always get described as ‘gritty’? What is a Mackem? Why is Jo so competent? And can Joe sing the Keller machine music of Death?
