- 191: Kill the Sun (42)
Perhaps we need to rethink our goals for this podcast…
This week we remind everyone that Nokia totally collapsed. That’s right, that really big phone manufacturer totally ruined themselves. It was no one’s fault but their own. It’s 42, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on May 19, 2007.
Show-notes:

Kind of like bring your kids to work day: bring your kids to cult day!
This is a classic 80’s trilogy, and if you’re wondering why we did it now, well Steven Spielberg has that movie coming out. You know, Ready Player One. And that was the only thing we could come up with in March to capitalize on. The only thing we wanted to capitalize on really. It’s Indiana Jones, released in 1981, 1984, and 1989.
Show-notes:
3:11 Raiders must have been an interesting movie to make.7:11 Here’s the full transcript of the discussion. This thing is 90 pages long.8:46 That would be Nevada Smith.10:27 Check out some of the stuff they cut out of Raiders in this 1979 draft.13:36 Read more about Raiders casting.14:41 Patrick Wilson.18:36 Yeah I guess I do know this theme.18:53 All the Peru scenes in Raiders were done in Hawaii.26:24 More about the “dark” times Spielberg and Lucas were going through before Temple of Doom.27:48 And some people didn’t really like it.40:20 This interview.51:22 Pryde of the X-Men. I always forget about that Spider-Man voting thing at the beginning.Also check out theraider.net, pretty good site for IJ info, and we used a lot of the info from here. Not sure if it’s all true though.

As opposed to a limited cosmic Gan?
Gan is the focus of this week’s episode. Get ready, because that basically means for the next 13 he probably won’t even get a speaking line. That’s how it goes, there’s 13 episodes in a season, one focusing on each crew member (that makes 7 if you include Zen) plus then like 5 more for Avon (for obvious reasons) plus an extra for Blake. It’s Breakdown, written by Terry Nation and aired on March 6th, 1978.
Show-notes:
0:52 Before this Vere Lorrimer directed Cygnus Alpha and Seek, Loacate, Destroy1:00 Making Blake’s 7 is a twitter account about the making of Blake’s 7.3:14 Check out our world famous and highly renowned Doctor Who podcast, Trust Your Doctor.13:42 The X-29 was a plane NASA made in the 80s. Looks pretty cool I guess.28:57 Here’s Julian Glover’s filmography.32:53 Benedict Cumberbatch is the world’s greatest surgeon … until a freak accident with a renegade blender shreds his hands into a million pieces.33:33 This trailer really makes me not want to watch Thor Ragnarok.34:01 Black Panther could be one of the highest grossing superhero movies ever, or even the highest by the time it’s through in theaters.46:26 Turns out we should have been saying Keating cause Michael Keaton is actually the other famous actor guy.

Only on Doctor Who will you hear “wet” bone cracking. Ew.
You might say that the man who wrote this story is a greenhorn. You know, like a guy who is new or inexperienced at the task at hand. No? Never mind. It’s The Lazarus Experiment, written by Stephen Greenhorn, and aired on May 5, 2007.
Show-notes:
11:34 Obviously they’re called nibblies.7:52 The BBC actually only runs ads now. No more content.9:52 Series 11 is actually 50 minutes, not 60.16:30 Mark Gatiss plays Sherlock’s brother Minecraft.14:47 The League of Gentlemen. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is a comic.20:49 Hypersonic is a speed.28:27 Yeah, they’re still together.32:26 Think you combined The Mummy Returns and The Scorpion King there.44:17 Season 18, not 17.Doctor Who © The BBC

And that’s how we got the newest hit superhero movie.
Why would anyone in their right mind name their secret government project after the person who is absolutely key to the project working? It’s supposed to be a secret project. Maybe I’m reading too deep into this. It’s Project Avalon, written by Terry Nation, and aired on February 27, 2018.
Show-notes:
1:20 Trust Your Doctor is our other podcast. Check it out and stuff.3:28 The New Mutants looks terrible like basically every superhero movie.19:04 Our newest episode of Trust Your Doctor is on Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks.28:51 Occam’s razor states that the simplest shaving solution is always the best. Guess I’ll start shaving dry with just a straight razor now.31:36 I don’t think you want to watch this Big Bang Theory without a laugh track video. I did. Now I see it in my nightmares.46:33 Space Fall is another recent Blake’s 7 podcast. They know a lot more than us so check them out. They don’t have a website as far as I can tell so here’s their twitter. Down & Safe is probably the first Blake’s 7 podcast ever. They’re pretty irregular.Blake’s 7 © The BBC

So many hoovers, so little time.
And now, Martha Jones in her first two parter. Featuring the Daleks, because bloody hell do the Daleks ever not appear? Can you imagine if they named an episode “Mystery of the Daleks” and then didn’t have the Daleks appear at all? The mystery is, where are they? It’s Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks, written by Helen Raynor and aired on April 21 and 28, 2007.
Show-notes:
14:47 More about the building of the Empire State Building here.18:36 They should start using man o’ wars in actual wars.19:18 They should bring these back to actual warfare too.25:09 This was all I could find about the “Daleks have to appear every season” rumor.39:51 Our movie trilogy podcast Triple Play has conditioned me to think of Star Wars whenever anyone says “Do it”Doctor Who © The BBC

The best Jane Austen rewrite is the one that features Kerr Avon.
This episode is pretty beloved. Not this episode of Blake’s 7, this episode of Zenith. It’s basically all down hill from here is what I’m saying. It’s Duel, written by Terry Nation and aired on February 20, 1978.
Show-notes:
0:40 Check out our long-running, award-winning, Doctor Who podcast Trust Your Doctor, which has been called a groundbreaking landmark in the Doctor Who podcasting world and hailed by millions as the greatest audio experience of the 21st century.6:43 Eureka Seven is a Japanese animated series and one of my favorite tv series of all time. It’s heavily inspired by Blake’s 7.20:44 War has changed.25:22 I’ve never seen Darmok, but that alien looks pretty dumb. Just saying.26:18 Martian Odyssey is a short story. Tweel for president.26:40 The Martian is a 2015 comedy movie starring Matt Damon.27:37 Check out our movie trilogy podcast Triple Play, which has been called a monumental achievement in the podcasting genre and gained internationally-recognized status as the official podcast of all 195 countries.28:07 The Diamond Lens was actually written in 1858, but it’s still pretty insane and good.32:04 This song from The Life of David Gale is used in a bunch of movie trailers.32:42 Johan Johansson. RIP in pieces. Also, it’s called Sun’s Gone Dim.43:05 Couldn’t find one for Crime and Punishment, but there’s always Abraham Lincoln Vampire Slayer.Blake’s 7 © The BBC

Forget being angry, I’m all about being sad now.
Gridlock is unfairly maligned. I’m putting that opinion here in writing, so you can never argue that I’ve said it, even if the audio for this episode gets garbled and never released. Or corrupted by the forces that be (looking at you Russell T.) It’s Gridlock, written by Russell T. Davies and aired on April 14, 2007.
Show-notes:
17:51 Couldn’t have been Christmas Invasion since Janis Joplin died in 1970.18:22 STEED21:02 I guess Old Rugged Cross is a southern song because this and all other versions of it that I could find sound pretty southern.21:06 Stand by m- I mean Abide with Me.27:06 Last of the Gadarene is a Third Doctor book by Mark Gatiss. If you’re watched or read anything else by Mark Gatiss, then you already know the story of this book. We’re onto you Mark.37:18 Check out our Blake’s 7 podcast Zenith.Doctor Who © The BBC

I think I might have used this as a title before…
I think Terry Nation is out of ideas. Just flat out, like, I’m sure he just kind of read the back of his orange juice in the morning and tore the label off to give to Chris Boucher. It’s Mission to Destiny, written by Terry Nation, and aired on February 13, 1978.
Show-notes:
1:33 I wonder how bad this 2017 version is. Then again I wonder how bad the original is.3:04 Guerrilla I guess. Not exactly but oh well.11:52 It’s his last name. His first name is Olag, which I would make me think twice, double take, and spit out my drink.13:18 Children of the Stones has Gareth Thomas playing a geologist who moves to a rural village when weird things start happening. It;s pretty good and only 7 episodes, so just watch it. Try this version edited together into a 2 and half hour movie, cause the original series feels like a chopped up movie anyway.33:41 Not that I can find. Perfect opportunity for anyone who wants to break into the adding laugh tracks to shows without laugh tracks field.34:08 Fresh Off the Boat is an example of a garbage American sitcom. Surprisingly based off of a book.34:17 Oh god.Blake’s 7 © The BBC

Inn-keeping is a very old and difficult profession.
This week Trust Your Doctor gets super spooky… in February. Why not, I guess, why not just release scary things in February? Nothing says you have to release them in October. It’s The Shakespeare Code, written by Gareth Roberts, and aired on April 7, 2007.
Show-notes:
0:38 Gareth Roberts didn’t write anything for series 1. The only things by him that we’ve covered are Bang-Bang-a-Boom, The Romance of Crime, The English Way of Death, and now this.2:51 Yeah, Lilith is a demon or something.20:49 The last time California carried out the death penalty was in 2006.26:27 This Animaniacs reboot is the most necessary thing in years. Totally 100% needed and I’m sure it will be amazing and won’t even come close to sucking.27:40 Yeah, it was Arthur C. Clarke.41:54 This one.43:16 This trailer for the 1993 Much Ado About Nothing movie kind of feels like it was a VHS preview rather than a theatrical trailer.Doctor Who © The BBC
