83: Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle (Terror of the Zygons)

And then like magic, it works! Guaranteed, every time.

This week Kiyan and Dylan return to their regularly scheduled host set-up with just the two of them attempting to explain a serial once again. This week the serial at hand is Terror of the Zygons, which was written by Robert Banks Stewart and aired in August and September of 1975. Harry Sullivan leaves in this episode, so there’s a retrospective at the end of the episode.

This was the base Dylan was referring to. Apparently it appeared in The Spy Who Loved Me, and not the one with the lotus (You Only Live Twice). The Bond Films all kind of blend together at some point.

82: Cyber Action Man (Revenge of the Cybermen) Ft. The Krynoid Podcast

Yes, it’s another collaboration.

You’ve heard Kiyan and Dylan, you’ve heard Jim and Martin (maybe), now hear them together in all of their glory! Listen in and find out if the crossover is as exciting as that previous sentence makes it out to be. I don’t see why it wouldn’t be that exciting. Together the four discuss Revenge of the Cybermen, written by Gerry Davis and aired in April and May of 1975. After finishing the story, stick around for a few more discussions on various Doctor Who related ideas.

Here’s a link to the Shannon Sullivan page on Revenge of the Cybermen.

81: On Screen On Screen (Genesis of the Daleks)

Son Screen’s sun screen is on screen sun screen.

This week Kiyan and Dylan explore one of the juggernauts of classic Doctor Who (See what I did there? The Juggernauts is an audio drama featuring Davros, the Daleks, and the Mechonoids [from The Chase]). If the previous sentence didn’t give it away, this week the topic at hand is Genesis of the Daleks, which was written by Terry Nation and aired in March and April in 1975. It famously introduces the character of Davros, creator of the Daleks.

For the curious: Spare Parts, The First Sontarans, Lords of the Red Planet

80: Too Dead To Accept It (The Sontaran Experiment)

See, there’s a very fine line between dead… and almost dead.

In this episode, Kiyan and Dylan take about 30 minutes to cover about 50 minutes of serial content, giving them approximately a 3:5 time compression rate or something. Dylan has an honorary degree in technobabble and he approves this completely made up measurement. The serial at hand this week was The Sontaran Experiment, written by Bob Baker and David Martin and aired in February and March of 1975.

79: Stationed Outside the Station (The Ark in Space)

The guards just hang out in space.

This week Kiyan and Dylan venture into what is supposedly one of the best classic who stories and then create what is supposedly our most recent episode. I’m not actually sure if it is, I mean, it will be until Episode 80 comes out. Anyway this week they watched The Ark in Space, which aired in January and February of 1975.

78: Interstellar Intergalactic Interpol Interloper (Robot)

Interspaced into interpretive intermissions?

This week Kiyan and Dylan… take a few jabs at Pertwee (who hasn’t quite left us yet apparently) and the move forward into Tom Baker’s era with Robot. Robot was written by the previous script editor, Terrance Dicks, and was aired in December of 1974 and January of 1975.

77: The Brig is Azaxyr! (Planet of the Spiders)

This revelation changed Monster of Peladon for me.

This week Kiyan and Dylan wrap up the Third Doctor’s era with the final serial of his era, Planet of the Spiders. This episode features the Trust Your Doctor exclusive Pertwee Retrospective, so stick around to the end to listen to Kiyan and Dylan discuss his era as a whole. Planet of the Spiders was written by Robert Sloman and aired in May and June of 1974.

76: A Genetic Coincidence Pass (The Monster of Peladon)

It’s like a free pass, but not really because it kind of doesn’t exist.

This week Kiyan and Dylan approach the end of the Third Doctor’s era, and for some reason he decides (somewhat poorly) to revisit Peladon. It’s not a very good serial, as you will find out soon enough. On the bright side, there’s lots of Alpha Centuri  and Ice Warrior voice imitations from both Kiyan and Dylan! The name of this week’s serial is The Monster of Peladon, and it was written by Brian Hayles and it aired in March and April of 1974.

Here is the history of printing wikipedia page. Apparently inkjet and dot matrix printers both existed by 1974.

Back to the Future

I suppose it’s a hoverboard rampage in the future, right?

For the very first actual episode of Triple Play, Kiyan and Dylan did their second one day marathon of Back to the Future! Back to the Future is one of Dylan’s favorite movies, so it’s a good thing they started with it… It also happens to have it’s 30th anniversary this year! Today, July 3rd, happens to be exactly 30 years to the day that the first film premiered.

This was our first episode in this slightly more freeform style, and as such there are some minor errors committed throughout the episode. Below are some corrections, as well as some further information for anyone who is curious enough to want to know more about the Back to the Future trilogy.

Information on the genesis of Back to the Future and the origin of the movie can be found on the Making of Back to the Future Part 1 Documentary that is part of the DVD extras for the 25th anniversary edition of the film.

Here is some information on the earlier drafts of Back to the Future. The fourth revision of the script, which features a more brooding Marty and a different opening scene (which Dylan mistakenly identifies as the refrigerator script) can be read online over here.

A list of Alan Silvestri’s scores, including notes on all of his 15 collaborations with Robert Zemeckis can be found at wikipedia. It’s also worth it to note that while Zemeckis did ask for the more bombastic score, it was Spielberg who disliked the Romancing the Stone score, and not Zemeckis.

A discussion on the casting of Eric Stoltz, and some brief footage of him as Marty can be found, once again, in the DVD extras from the 25th anniversary edition of the film. However, the New York Times has the short clip from the making of documentary hosted on their website.

Kiyan was correct, Christopher Lloyd was an actor in Star Trek III, on the recommendation of Leonard Nimoy. On the other hand, Skinhead turns out not to be the one who wears 3-d glasses.

Thomas F. Wilson did, in fact, play the 2015 version of Biff Tannen, according to IMDB.

Quite a bit of our information on the creation of the second and third films can be seen and expanded upon in Empire’s oral history of the franchise, which can be found over here.

For clarification the original theme is the one that is one of the most recognizable movie themes, not the westernized one in the third film. To hear the “westernized” version of the theme tune used in the third movie, you can click over to a youtube video over here. For comparison here is a link to the pretty recognizable regular version of the theme.

Very recently, Robert Zemeckis has stated that there will only be a reboot of Back to the Future… over his dead body. Thank goodness for that.

For anyone with a love of point and clicks, or TellTale games, or just Back to the Future in general, you can find the Back to the Future video game at TellTale’s official website here.

The Back to the Future musical was announced back in 2014, (you can read a press release here on the BBC website) and was (and probably still is) planned to premiere on London’s West End this year, for the 30th anniversary of the film.

For an extension of what we’ve discussed in this podcast, and an obviously far more in-depth look at the making of Back to the Future , be sure to check out We Don’t Need Roads: The Making of the Back to the Future Trilogy, which you can purchase on Amazon. Neither Kiyan nor Dylan have read it, but it’s definitely probably on one of their “to-read” lists.

Introduction

It’s been a long time coming, evidently.

Here, finally, in the flesh and bone, is the very first episode of our new show, Triple Play. We’ve been hinting and mentioning this show all the way back since Trust Your Doctor hit its 5th episode, which you can find over here.

Like we mention in the episode, we’re shooting to put out an episode every 2 months. What we didn’t mention is that after about a year we’ll probably step back and evaluate if the show is successful or not to move to a monthly release schedule, and if it is, well, then we’ll do that obviously. Until then, enjoy the current flow of episodes, and please recommend the show to your friends, as we think this podcast has a far wider reach than the obviously more specific Trust Your Doctor.

The intro and outro music is the Italian Girl in Algiers Overture, which was composed by Rossini.
