111: Papier-Mâché Shia LaBeouf Head (The Horns of Nimon)

Running through the night… It’s the Nimon! Actual cannibal Nimon!

Watch out, it’s the Space Minotaur! He’s chasing us down! Well, may as well take a quick break here and listen to Trust Your Doctor, I’m sure the minotaur will wait. I mean, Kiyan and Dylan are discussing The Horns of Nimon, written by Anthony Read, and aired in December of 1979 and January of 1980. Unfortunately for us, this serial was released 2 years before Rambo. Pity.

110: The Real Radiation Experience (Nightmare of Eden)

Please fasten your seat belts and put on your radiation helmets.

This week, the question at large is, does the serial make a political point? Well actually the question is, as usual, can Kiyan and Dylan summarize a serial without totally failing? Listen in and find out if Nightmare of Eden can answer both of these questions. It was written by Bob Baker and aired in November and December of 1979.

109: Long Chain of Life Threatening (The Creature From the Pit)

I did a play once that ended in a long chain of people holding guns to peoples heads.

This week Kiyan and Dylan secretly record in yet another undisclosed location. Luckily when they ventured out, the Lady of the realm didn’t chuck them into a pit filled with some generic creature of destruction. So instead they sat down and discussed The Creature from the Pit, written by David Fisher and aired in October and November of 1979.

108: He Wipes his Ancestors on his Pants (City of Death)

Just gonna wipe this off. Don’t need this primordial soup.

A, la cité de l’amour. Er… I mean, la cité de la mort. Only fitting that this episode features a lovely birdsong in the background, truly solidifying the love in the air. And what better way to write a serial set in the city of love than to have three writers (David Fisher, Douglas Adams, and Graham Williams) collaborate in writing a serial. Yes, it’s the City of Death, aired in September and October 1979.

Check out our crossover with Flight Through Entirety, where we talk about English Way of Death!

Book 2: It’s Fun to Have Fun (The English Way of Death) Ft. Flight Through Entirety

I’ve been told that having fun is pretty great.

This is a very special episode of Trust Your Doctor. Before I get into that, can I mention how difficult titling this is? “Ft. Flight Through Entirety” is the most space saving way to credit the crossover, but it’s not entirely accurate. We only got two hosts (again) of Flight Through Entirety, although this time it’s Nathan and Richard rather than Nathan and Brendan. It’ll do as a title though, as it is rather representative of the episode anyway. Didn’t I make this same point last time?

Well anyway, this crossover we talk (yet again) about a Doctor Who novel from the wilderness years. Let me stop you again, and rephrase that a bit more accurately. The hosts attempt to talk about a Doctor Who novel, with…. varying degrees of success. This time it’s The English Way of Death, written by Gareth Roberts and published on the 21st of March, 1996. It was recently republished (in 2015) as part of the Doctor Who History Collection, and you can find that republish on Amazon. The English Way of Death takes place immediately after The Romance of Crime (another Gareth Roberts novel), which takes place between Creature From the Pit and Nightmare of Eden.

If you want more Flight Through Entirety (let’s be honest, who wouldn’t?), be sure to check them out at their wonderful internet locales below.

107: Do You Dream of Davros? (Destiny of the Daleks)

Does Davros count Daleks to fall asleep?

This week’s episode is brought to you by the color pink. And by pink, I mean PINK, because that frock that Romana wears is straight up bright pink. It contrasts nicely with the cold grey of the Dalek casings. Yes, this week it’s Destiny of the Daleks, written by Terry Nation and aired in September of 1979.

And don’t forget to check out Flight Through Entirety ahead of our crossover which goes out this coming Wednesday.

106: You Wish Your Name Was Lalla (The Armageddon Factor)

Apparently Lalla is derived from a Persian word that means “tulip”.

This is it, ladies and gentleman, the end of the search for the Key to Time. And what better way to end it than with the most divisive serial since The Mutants? Is it good? Is it bad? Well. That’s for you to decide. It’s The Armageddon Factor, written by Bob Baker and David Martin and aired in January and February of 1979.

Seamless Verity! plug.

Special 3: The Two Year Anniversary!

There’s been an awakening. Have you felt it? It’s in our sanity. As in, we’re losing it.

We know. Two Years. Some of you have been here for all two of them. Some of you weren’t. That’s ok, we love* you all. No but actually, thank you for listening. We really do appreciate that there are people who sit/stand/walk while listening to two random guys babble on about Doctor Who, or movie trilogies, or whatever we fancy really. We know this episode is a bit “thrown together” you might say, but it’s a nice representation of the years behind and ahead of us. Below I’ve dropped links to all the friends we’ve made this past year, as well as anything else of note. Here’s to another year of laughs!

*Love is subjective.

Flight Through Entirety
A wonderful group of guys from glorious Australia. Last year we discussed Last of the Gadarene with two of their hosts, Brendan and Nathan. You can find that episode here. Not long from now we’ll be discussing The English Way of Death. You can find Flight Through Entirety at the following locations:

The Krynoid Podcast
Another wonderful group of guys, this time from jolly old England. In the past year we were joined by the hosts, Jim and Martin, to discuss Revenge of the Cybermen. You can find that here. You can find The Krynoid Podcast at the following locations:

105: Funny for All the Wrong Reasons (The Power of Kroll)

Is anything ever funny for the right reasons?

This week Kiyan and Dylan face the roughly 4×21 minute ritual of Kroll. It’s really rather simple, you sit through the 4 episode The Power of Kroll serial, take a few notes, and then record a podcast about it. The serial was written by Robert Holmes and aired in December of 1978 and January of 1979.

This is the kind of alarm clock/timer that Kiyan and Dylan were referring to, in case you were wondering.

104: Romana and the Chocolate Factory (The Androids of Tara)

Willy Wonka is a Time Lord right?

This week Kiyan and Dylan got through David Fisher’s second serial for the show, an arguably much better piece of work. It’s called The Androids of Tara, and it aired in November and December of 1978.

Dylan is not in the fabric business. Here’s some information on tweed because he doesn’t know how tweed works.
