Special 6: Doctor Who was a Mistake (Dimensions in Time)

Unfortunately you all know it’s true.

This week we’ve made the biggest mistake we’ve ever made. But even our biggest mistake (watching this special) can’t compare to how big of a mistake it was for the show to make Dimensions in Time. It was written by John Nathan-Turner and David Roden, and it was aired on the 26th and 27th of November, 1993.

Show-notes:

6:08 Pulfrich Effect.
10:32 Apparently the Pet Shop Boys are a musical duo. They’ve been around since 1981, so that must mean their music is bad enough for people to like it.
11:30 It’s kind of a Big Deal.
26:00 Check out our other podcast, Triple Dip.

Audio 8: Hyper Ancient (Ghost in the Machine)

Everybody knows that the hyper ancient >>>> regular ancient.

This week we’ve reached the companion chronicles section of the podcast. Which means we’re at the non full cast audio section of the 16 week adventure. Which also means our episodes might be slightly shorter for a few weeks. Never fear, we’ll return to full 2 and a half hour length glory soon. It’s Ghost in the Machine, written by Jonathon Morris and released October 11, 2013. Ghost in the Machine can be purchased for $8 (or your local equivalent) on Big Finish’s website.

Show-notes:

10:03 10 seconds on Youtube told me that this recording is actually the very first.
27:02 It’s actually from a critique of Descartes by some dude name Gilbert Ryle. I heard it really ryled Descartes up. Ha.

133: Napkin of Doom (The Five Doctors)

Eating dinner with the napkin of doom makes your meal much more exciting.

This week Kiyan and Dylan watch a special that appears between seasons and has already caused undue confusion as to how to place this into the episode index. At least it has to Dylan. Yes, it’s the Children in Need special The Five Doctors, which unsurprisingly aired on the 23rd of November, 1983. It was written by Terrance Dicks.

Show-notes:

2:32 “Future versions of ourselves” played by Jim and Martin of Krynoid Podcast. Be sure to check them out.
15:38 So about how much he makes per year.
15:55 Nope!

Audio 1: I Thought it Was Like… MEOW (Find and Replace)

Fun fact: Incursion is spelt with an I.

This was originally recorded as part of a potential (but at the time unconfirmed) December/January hiatus. Since then it’s been confirmed that the hiatus will not be necessary. And now it’s being released as a “thanksgiving” special. If you needed something to be thankful for, you can now be thankful for more Trust Your Doctor. You’re welcome.

Anyway, in this episode Kiyan and Dylan ventured into the world of audio dramas with a Third Doctor and Jo grant adventure named Find and Replace. If you want to pick up the story you can at Big Finish’s website for $8 on download, and ~$14 on CD. It was written by Paul Magrs and released in September of 2010.
