Lanterns: on Gotham TV Podcast

This week on Gotham it was time to be very very afraid as we were introduced to the Crane family in Episode 14 of Gotham The Fearsome Doctor Crane which aired in the UK on Monday 30th March 2015.

We also introduce another Doctor from Gotham in the shape of the (former) G.C.P.D. Medical Examiner, as Philip Hernandez who plays Doctor Guerra left a very special message for our listeners. In the message he explains his scenes in the episode and provides some extra little bits that he brought to the character of Doctor Guerra. He also vows to return to exact his revenge on Ed Nygma! You can follow Philip Hernadez on Twitter and check out his website and blog for all those interested in acting and learning the profession.

In this episode of Gotham the G.C.P.D. investigate a series of murders that surround an anonymous support group for people with debilitating phobias. The perpetrator seemingly is extracting their adrenal gland for no obvious reason. As Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock investigate these crimes, Jim is released from his involvement in the investigation of Thomas and Martha Wayne's murder by the young Bruce Wayne, seemingly frustrated at the lack of progress in the official case. All the while a romantic air falls over the G.C.P.D as Harvey finds his soft centre for the leader of the support group, Ms. Mullens, and Jim's relationship with Leslie Thompkins evolves through an unexpected dinner date. Meanwhile at the Precinct a professional spat between the Medical Examiner, Dr. Guerra and Ed Nygma leads to the suspension of Ed from the Forensics Unit before he implicates Guerra in the collection of spare body parts from the morgue. Is Guerra Ed Nyma's (aka The Riddler) first victim? As Jim and Harvey narrow down their list of suspects, they race to an abandoned swimming pool where Mullens is in danger as a Doctor Gerald Crane is revealed as the murderer at large. With his actions are driven by a longing to release him and his son, Jonathon Crane from their debilitating F.E.A.R. We discuss all these top five case points surrounding Episode 14 of Gotham.

Feedback

We discuss all the feedback that has come in from our listeners on everything from Welcome Back Jim Gordon to our thoughts about whether Gotham should have a time jump. Make sure to send your thoughts to [email protected]

We also give a big shout out to Victoria Cartagena (Detective Renee Montoya on Gotham) who celebrated her birthday on the 31st of March. If you haven't had the chance you can hear our interviews with Victoria and of course her partner Detective Crispus Allen (played by Andrew Stewart-Jones) at the links below. We want to wish Victoria a great birthday and another great year on Gotham.

The music at the end of this weeks episode is Nouvelle Vague's cover song of Love will Tear Us Apart (feat. Eloisia) from their self-titled album Nouvelle Vague. This song was playing in the background of the restaurant where Jim Gordon met Leslie Thompkins for what she thought was another date but turned out to be some professional consultation.

Join us again next week as we discuss Episode 15 of Gotham The Scarecrow. We're excited to see how the beginnings of Jonathon Crane's fear leads to his journey towards becoming the Scarecrow. Thanks as always for listening.

This week it was time to "Welcome Back, Jim Gordon" to the Gotham City Police Department as we discuss Episode 13 of Gotham which aired in the UK on Monday 23rd March 2015.

In this episode of Gotham Jim Gordon returns to the G.C.P.D. and carries on exactly where he left off before his demotion to Arkham Asylum. He starts an internal investigation among his fellow officers and detectives following a killing of a low-level and seemingly insignificant drug gang member. Oswald Cobblepott's dreams come true, for a moment as he takes ownership of Fish's old club; and we really get a taste of Gabe, Oswald's right-hand man, as he acts on a favour for Jim Gordon by The Penguin. Whilst at Wayne Manor Cat has some bad news for Master Bruce.

We discuss our top five case points for Episode 13 of Gotham including the emergence of the right hand men (Butch Gilzean, Victor Zsasz and Harvey Bullock), the reshuffle of the gangster elements in Gotham, Jim Gordon's support group, Edward Nygma and Kristine Kringle's blossoming relationship and of course that final showdown in Fish Mooney's club.

Feedback

As was pointed out by Detective Dillon The Electocutioner/Jack Gruber really reminds us of some versions of Hugo Strange from the comics.

HUGO STRANGE - JACK GRUBER

We also had some great twitter feedback from Channel 5 viewers, listeners and some of the actors on Gotham during our live tweet of Gotham Welcome Back Jim Gordon including Zabrena Guevara, Erin Richards, Drew Powell, J.W. Cortez and Tom Calderone.

The music at the end of this weeks episode is Hanni El Khatib's song Family from his album Heatseekers. This song was used in Fish Mooney's club in Welcome Back Jim Gordon when Oswald has had a bit too much champagne.

Join us again next week as we discuss episode 14 of Gotham The Fearsome Dr. Crane. Directed by John Behring and written by John Stephens who also wrote The Baloonman and The Mask. We're excited to see the back story of one of our favourite Batman villains. Thanks as always for listening.

After a long break from Gotham we get two episodes in very quick succession as "What the Little Bird told Him" followed on back-to-back from Rogues' Gallery on Channel 5. It is just like buses no episode of Gotham shows up for 3-months and then two come along at once! Episode 12 of Gotham What the Little Bird told Him, was written by Ben Edlund (Supernatural, The Tick, Angel) and directed by Eagle Egilsson.

In an attempt to return to the GCPD as Detective, Jim Gordon makes a deal with Commissioner Loeb to track down and apprehend Jack Gruber - aka Jack Buchinsky and now known by the press as the Electrocutioner - within twenty-four hours. Unbeknownst to Jim, Gruber has his sights fixed on revenge against Sal Maroni and tracks him down as he makes an audacious second attempt on Maroni's life whilst he is held at the GCPD Precinct for his safety and protection. As Jim arrests Gruber, other events in Gotham begin to develop as Fish seizes her opportunity to act against Falcone for control of "The Family" with the kidnap of Liza - but Falcone must never know the real truth about Liza. With the hostage situation unfolding a deal is made that will see Falcone leave Gotham for good and Fish take over the crime empire. But other schemes come in to play as Oswald informs Falcone of the extent of Fish's betrayal. Join us as we discuss the episode in full detail on Gotham TV Podcast.

Welcome back everyone! After 3-months off-air Gotham is back on Channel 5, which means we're back too...and it feels good to be podcasting again about Gotham after so long!

This weeks episode of Gotham Rogues Gallery, released as a back-to-back feature episode on Channel 5 with Episode 12 of Gotham ("What the Little Bird told Him"), was written by Sue Chung and directed by Oz Scott.

Jim Gordon begins life as a prison guard at Arkham Asylum after his very public demotion by the Mayor, but trouble never seems too far away as bodies with troubling scars either side of their forehead begin to show up within Arkham. Jim calls in his former partner Harvey Bullock to help investigate the murders, which appear to have been experimented on using electro-therapy. A mass breakout from Arkham orchestrated by the culprit, an inmate by the name of Jack Gruber, sees him escape along with his most promising experiment to date. In the meantime, Fish begins to contemplate her most audacious move against the Don Falcone just as questions are raised over the loyalty of her right-hand man - Butch Gilzean. Despite everything going on in the Arkham and Gotham a new romance develops as a spark ignites between the now single Jim Gordon and the Arkham's physician, Doctor Leslie Thompkins.
