Book 4: Embrace Lung Cancer (Mad Dogs and Englishmen)

That’s how we all end I guess.

Here we reach the end of our run through the Doctors from 8 down to 1 and back up again. Two weeks of random other TV things, then we finally reach Rose. Finally. Thank god. It’s Mad Dogs and Englishmen, written by Paul Magrs and released on January 7, 2002.

Show-notes:

3:45 The 99th BBC Doctor Who novel is apparently The Adventuress of Henrietta Street, if this site is to be believed.
19:54 Here’s a picture of arctic char for your enjoyment.
5:59 Check out our other podcast, Triple Flip. We recently covered the Aladding “trilogy.”
51:50 List of movie that took a long time to make.
51:54 Looks bad.
53:48 System Shock? No, just Bioshock.

Audio 4: I Shot the Sheriff (Storm Warning)

But I did not shoot the vortisaur.

This is the start of our crazy little romp through Big Finish/Virgin Missing Adventures/questionable quality. It’s Storm Warning, written by Alan Barnes and released in January of 2001. Storm Warning can be purchased for $3 (or your local equivalent) on Big Finish’s website.

Show-notes:

10:56 Room 217 in the book and 237 in the movie.
22:55 Ok, if you like pretty great stories that only take like a minute to read and are also literal trash, here’s Franz Kafka’s Before the Law (one translation of it).
34:43 The de-mat gun, as seen in Invasion of Time. That’s right Rassilon. Yeah. Get out of here. And get your name off this stupid gun. Oh, it’s not on it. Well still get out. Jerk.

163: Explosions and Motorcycles (the tv movie)

Hey look, kaboom and vroom rhyme.

This week we start a new era, and then immediately end it. It’s a single episode long, albeit a much longer than usual episode. It’s a bit weird, you may not have heard of it. It’s called The TV Movie, written by Matthew Jacobs and aired in May of 1996.

Show-notes:

22:55 He should have worn it cause he’s not a crook.
39:53 They mentioned it again in Invasion of Time.
48:06 I don’t know if it’s a reference but the guy was Kevin Briggs.
