Podcasts about classic doctor

It's delightful how many listeners have said how conforting they find this story - and episode two is definitely comfiort viewing for the sci-fi aficionado. The introduction of a classic monster, pretty much the last hurrah of a Classic Doctor and much to recommend it in terms of action, design and production. Whatever will guest Martin Holmes choose as the episode's best biot though? Will you agree, or will you be thinking "That was really most unfortunate, he should not have done that." #doctorwho #doctorwhoreaction #doctorwhocommentary #doctorwhocomedian #tobyhadoke #doctorwhofacts #positivedoctorwho #classicdoctorwho Please support these podcasts on Patreon, where you will get advance releases, exclusive content (including a patron-only podcast - Far Too Much Information), regular AMAs and more.

This week, before we change topic gears, let's take one more look back at Classic Doctor Who Season 6! This season ended up being monumental, with many highs (The Invasion!), a few lows (The Space Pirates!), and the ending of several eras. What were our favorite moments? Who was the best guest star?

This week, we continue our coverage of the monumental Classic Doctor Who story, THE WAR GAMES! We break down our best and worst moments of episodes 4 through 10 before previewing what lies ahead.

This week, the Pop Culture Historians hit a major milestone in their Classic Doctor Who coverage with THE WAR GAMES! It's the end of several eras all at once: the end of black and white episodes, the end of Jamie and Zoe's tenure and, of course, the end of Patrick Troughton's run on the show. There's so much to cover that we had to split this episode in two! This week, we provide initial thoughts, behind the scenes notes and best and worst of the first three episodes.

This week, we need a bottle of rum to get through THE SPACE PIRATES! A difficult Classic Doctor Who Season Six serial to get through, are there any positives to be gleaned from this mostly-missing story? Kind of! But not really. Arrrr!

This week, the Pop Culture Historians find themselves in the middle of THE INVASION! The Cybermen make their dramatic return to the show, as does the recently promoted Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart.

This week, the Pop Culture Historians watch as Classic Doctor Who Season Five ends not with a bang, but with a whimper. Is THE WHEEL IN SPACE as bad as its reputation? Why do the Cybermen hatch from eggs now? Why don't people just drop-kick those Cybermats? All these questions and more will be explored in this episode!

This week, the Pop Culture Historians find themselves underwater with FURY FROM THE DEEP! Topics include: the relatively recent animation and how the serial loses something in the translation, the departure of a companion and Jimmy's 2012 Halloween costume.

This week, the Yeti return in THE WEB OF FEAR! Topics include: the awful animation of the missing Episode 3, the joy of seeing Deborah Watling reunite with her father, and the emotionally complicated resolution. Plus…Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart enters the chat!

This week…no, you're not seeing double. That's TWO Patrick Troughtons in the six-part THE ENEMY OF THE WORLD. Topics discussed include: Troughton's double role as the Doctor and the villainous Ramon Salamander, the chilling ending, and the serial's overall re-evaluation since its episode recovery.

This week, the Pop Culture Historians keep their snow suits on to review THE ICE WARRIORS! Topics include: Peter Barkworth's incredible guest role, the thematic pull between man and machine, and the serial's weird cliffhangers.

This week, bundle up because we're breaking down THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMEN! Is this mostly-missing six-part story better or worse in animation form? How many ways can we mispronounce the name Padmasambhava? Also, can some great stuff at the end mask the fact that much of this serial is…kind of boring? Listen along and find out!

When your show goes on hiatus for 15 years, the result is a literal generation gap of fandom. If you happen to be one of the many fans who have grown up on the series “Doctor Who” that began in 2005, you're certainly aware of the Classic series but you may also be intimidated by just how much of it there is. Twenty-six seasons comprises a whole hell of a lot of television, so it's difficult to know where to start. Well, we've got you covered: Chris and Pete have picked out the five stories from the Classic era that are essential for NuWho fans.

This week, let's take a look back at the season that was with another round of awards all about Classic Doctor Who Season Four! Best moments from each serial are chosen. We also determine the Best Guest Star, Best Villain, Best and Worst Serial and, as always, we crown an MVP. Bonus: we rank the first six Dalek stories.

This week, it's a series wrap on the Daleks…for now. Ryan (a Doctor Who novice) and Jimmy (a Doctor Who expert) break down THE EVIL OF THE DALEKS, the mostly incredible (and mostly missing) seven-part serial that closed out Classic Doctor Who Season Four AND was meant to spin off the Daleks permanently. Would this have sufficed as a finale? Listen along and decide for yourself!

Welcome back to The Pop Culture Historians and their Classic Doctor Who Watch/Rewatch! Ryan is a Who novice and watching for the first time, and Jimmy is the expert, and rewatching once again! This week, they meet THE FACELESS ONES and are impressed that this six part story set in Gatwick Airport could be so effective. And, of course, we discuss Ben and Polly taking a departing flight off the show. You can find the Anneke Wills interview referenced here: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3rqmfl

This week, the Pop Culture Historians face THE MACRA TERROR! This four-part, completely missing story all about denying the evil that lives below is potent, timely, and contains just enough goofiness to make this a Season Four highlight. Plus, it's the first story to genuinely give Jamie something to do! What's not to like? Check this episode out…it's a gas!

This week…you want the moon? The Pop Culture Historians will give you the moon! This time, we're on THE MOONBASE, a four-part, partly missing Classic Doctor Who story. It marks the return of a popular villain, it's tight and to the point, the animation's pretty good. Yet, did it leave one of us a little wanting? We also discuss the Second Doctor era's penchant for “base under siege” stories. Reminder: Jimmy is a Doctor Who expert, while Ryan's never seen the show. Between the two of them, you're bound to find someone at your level of Doctor Who fandom.

Welcome back to our watch-through of Classic Doctor Who Season Four! Ryan has never seen the show, while Jimmy has seen it all, making this a perfect show for both Who novices and experts alike! This week, we go under the sea to meet THE UNDERWATER MENACE! Not an especially beloved serial, do the camp elements, paired with Joseph Furst going completely off the rails, enough to salvage some of it? Listen along and find out! You can also find the Furst interview mentioned in the episode here: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3n5lz6

This week, we're grabbing our passports and heading to Scotland to hang with THE HIGHLANDERS! This completely missing four-part story both marks an ending (of the purely historical Doctor Who stories, at least for some time) and a beginning (of the Jamie McCrimmon era). Does the utilizing of Patrick Troughton's physical comedy skills get neutered in the present due to the fact that we can't see it? Listen along and decide for yourself!

This week, a new era begins. We break down the very first Second Doctor story, THE POWER OF THE DALEKS! How do our companions deal with this massive change? Heck, how do we? Also, do the Daleks seem a little…docile to you? What's going on there? Listen and find out! Plus, we formally introduce Patrick Troughton to the history of Doctor Who.

This week…perhaps the most important serial in terms of DOCTOR WHO's history. It's THE TENTH PLANET, and with it comes the end of an era. We both gain a new recurring villain (the Cybermen), but we also lose our main star for the first time. We discuss the Doctor's first regeneration, the history behind the decision to recast William Hartnell and the weird lucky breaks that recoded the show's DNA forever.

This week, the Pop Culture Historians return to the TARDIS to kick off our coverage of Classic Doctor Who Season Four! Ryan has never seen Doctor Who, while Jimmy has seen it all. Together, they'll tackle THE SMUGGLERS! The Ben and Polly era begins in earnest, but does the completely missing status of this four-part story hurt its quality? Listen and find out!

This week, it's movie time! We return once again to the Peter Cushing movie Who universe with the second (and final) Hammer Dr. Who movie. Glory at the very strange title, revel at the Technicolor, then decide for yourself whether this was an improvement over either the original TV serial, or the first movie. As far as we're concerned…well, it's complicated. You can watch the movie on BritBox right now!

This week, Season Three of Classic Doctor Who winds down with a visit from THE WAR MACHINES. 60's London! A cool AI villain! ANOTHER companion departure! What's not to love (besides that last one)? The best part: it's all available on BritBox! How does this season closer stack up to the rest of this up-and-down season? Listen along and find out with us!

This week, Doctor Who meets THE SAVAGES! In this completely missing four part serial, we say goodbye once again to a companion. How does this exit stack up against the increasing number of past departures? Also, how good is Frederick Jaeger's impression of William Hartnell? All this and more on this week's POP CULTURE HISTORIANS!

This week, the Pop Culture Historians go to the Old West to hang out with THE GUNFIGHTERS! Classic Doctor Who does its first American Western story and allows for William Hartnell to do a little broad comedy. However, do the bad accents and atrocious song do enough to hang the serial entirely? The entire serial can be found on BritBox!

This week, just in time for the day after Christmas….it's THE CELESTIAL TOYMAKER! Michael Gough puts in a bravura performance as the titular villain, but does the behind-the-scenes turmoil compromise the story beyond all hope? Also, why are all the characters really annoying? Also, also, Ryan has beef with Dodo. All this and more is explored on this episode of POP CULTURE HISTORIANS!

This week, the Pop Culture Historians enter THE ARK! The good news: this serial has been completely preserved and is available on BritBox! The bad news: does this four-part story told in two parts fall apart halfway through? Listen as Ryan and Jimmy work their way through a serial that seems to suffer from behind-the-scenes chaos. We also formally introduce Dodo Chaplet as the Doctor's new companion! Check it out!

This week, Season Three of Classic Doctor Who goes even further into somber territory with THE MASSACRE! This austere four-part story features Steven basically on his own, and a dual role for William Hartnell. But is the fact that the episodes are completely missing mean something is lost in the translation? Find out for yourself this week with The Pop Culture Historians!
