Gustav Danielsson, FSF got the job by text message. "Do you wanna shoot a sequel to Game of Thrones?" arrived from director Owen Harris, who had made San Junipero with him, and it landed while Danielsson was at home rewatching the original series with his kids and buying them the board games. He cut short a show in Sweden to take it. The result, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is HBO's return to Westeros at a fraction of the usual scale, and it earned him a 2026 Emmy nomination for cinematography.He and host Jared Levy work through how you make a two-hander feel as large as a war on a budget that rules out burning cities. Night scenes pushed into the half hour of real dusk, the same trick he used on San Junipero because South African nights go completely black. An Alexa Mini LF shot at 3:2 and squeezed to 2:1 on Panavision Ultra Panatars, whose 1.3x squeeze fills almost the whole sensor, with faster Panavision VA spherical primes held back for the scenes a single double-wick candle had to carry on its own. Every flashback on one de-tuned Panavision T Series lens built for Super 35 and run on a larger sensor, so the image falls apart at the edges on purpose. Firelight from a bank of up to 48 photo flood bulbs that gaffer Seamus Lynch built and named the Dalek, programmed against video of a real fire. And the afternoon an oven on set caught fire for real, which Danielsson spent a few seconds trying to dim.CREDITSGustav Danielsson, FSFInstagram · Website · IMDbJared Levy, hostInstagram · Website · IMDbDavid Kruta, producerInstagram · Website · IMDbTopher Hammond, producerInstagramMUSICOriginal music by One Wave.THE SALONEpisode page and full gallery: https://cinematographysalon.com/podcast/gustav-danielsson-fsf-a-knight-of-the-seven-kingdomsNewsletter and events: cinematographysalon.comInstagram: @cinematographysalonPRESENTING SPONSORThis episode is made possible by Fujifilm — home of GFX ETERNA 55, the large format, IMAX®-Certified digital camera, and FUJINON cinema lenses. https://fujifilm-x.comSUPPORT THE SALONThe podcast, the writing, and both Resources tools are free.

This week, Dave chats with author David Crichton about his new novel, ‘The Avengers: Death in Downing Street', which returns John Steed and Emma Peel to the wonderfully stylish and eccentric world of the classic 1960s television series.And, just to avoid any confusion following the latest ‘Avengers: Doomsday' trailer, we are talking bowler hats and leather catsuits here, not Marvel superheroes.David and Dave also have a little history together, having worked at the same design agency in a previous life. They discuss David's journey from account handler to published author, and how a lockdown writing project eventually became the first completely original Steed and Peel adventure in decades.The conversation explores the surprisingly complicated road to getting a new ‘Avengers' story approved, the challenge of capturing the unmistakable voices and chemistry of Patrick Macnee and Diana Rigg, and translating such a visually distinctive television series onto the page.They also chat about weaving real history into the wonderfully peculiar world of ‘The Avengers', whether the series could ever be successfully revived for television, and what David would like to do next.Plus, there are detours into ‘Doctor Who', Korean television, ‘Reacher', tie-in novels and the full-size Dalek occupying David's office.‘The Avengers: Death in Downing Street' is available now in paperback and ebook, published by Titan Books.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/geektown.

"Don't cry for us KEIR STARMER: TRUTH IS WE NEVER LOVED YOU!" #KeirStarmer #JonGaunt #AnnWiddecombe # ReformUK #NigelFarage #BrokenBritain #KillList #UKPolitics With apologies to Elaine Paige and Andrew Lloyd Webber, but as England faces our old enemy Argentina in the World Cup today, it seems the perfect time to reflect on the fall of Keir Starmer. The truth is, the British people never truly warmed to this man. Between the "Dalek" delivery and the charisma of a paper bag, he has remained fundamentally out of touch. It was sickening to witness him today, still in total denial, actually claiming he has left the UK in a better place than he found it! While the Commons engaged in a sick pantomime of back-slapping and "in-jokes," they ignored the dreadful reality of the country. In a week where Ann Widdecombe has been assassinated, our nation has never been more divided. Now, chilling details are emerging from a Zia Yusuf emergency press conference about a "kill list" targeting other Reform politicians. How have we reached a state where there is such visceral hate toward politicians on the right? Starmer, his party, and their supporters in the mainstream press have spent years fuelling this fire. Today should not have been a celebratory swan song. Starmer should have proposed that the Commons sit for another week to address the consequences of Ann's murder and demand answers on how the "broken Britain" he leaves behind will actually be fixed. With Nigel Farage now facing ten death threats a day, democracy itself is under attack. It's time for the truth. Join in and give me your views. #KeirStarmer #JonGaunt #AnnWiddecombe #ZiaYusuf #ReformUK #NigelFarage #BrokenBritain #KillList #UKPolitics #PoliticalViolence #DemocracyUnderAttack #MainstreamMediaHate #EnglandVsArgentina #WorldCup #DalekStarmer Keir Starmer, Jon Gaunt, Ann Widdecombe, Zia Yusuf, Reform UK, Nigel Farage, Broken Britain, Kill List, UK Politics, Political Violence, Democracy Under Attack, Mainstream Media Hate, England vs Argentina, World Cup, Dalek Starmer This is political blogging and hard-hitting social commentary from Triple Sony Gold Award-winning talk radio legend, Jon Gaunt — former host on BBC, Talk Radio, and Sky News. On Jon Gaunt TV, we cut through the noise and say what others won't. No political correctness. No censorship. Just real conversations that matter.
The Fugitive Doctor faces the Daleks for the very first time — and it goes about as well as you'd expect. In Titan's Circuit Breaker: Adversary of the Daleks, bright, vibrant art meets a sharp, friction‑filled story as Osgood's hero worship crashes head‑on into a Doctor who refuses to play the part. Ancient Greece, false gods, alien refugees, and a Dalek scout on the hunt — it's a messy, chaotic, character‑driven entry in the cross‑media event, and we're breaking it all down. Join us as we dive into the Fugitive Doctor's most explosive mission yet.

[Special Release: This episode is being released simultaneously on the main feed and Patreon for immediacy.] BREAKING NEWS: The Future of Doctor Who Takes a Dramatic Turn Just hours before recording, the BBC made a major announcement that affects Doctor Who's direction for years to come. RTD and Bad Wolf are parting ways with the BBC. The Christmas special is canceled. New production arrangements are being sought. John and Jim process what this means for fandom, for the show's creative identity, and for the possibility of a true fresh start. One host sees this as inevitable reckoning; the other worries about what gets lost in transition. Both discuss how long the darkness might last—and whether that's actually a bad thing. Season 25: Taking Stock of Four Stories After racing through Remembrance of the Daleks, Silver Nemesis, Happiness Patrol, and The Greatest Show in the Galaxy, Jim and John pause to rank what they've just watched. Best episode? That's clear. Worst episode? They disagree—and don't let ratings alone settle it. Best villain, best companion, best guest star, best monster, funniest moment, best overall moment—each category sparks different reactions. What makes a story work, even when individual elements fail? When does spectacle overwhelm character? Why does one host adore a story the other found painful? Nemesis of the Daleks: The First Dalek Comic in Ages A four-part comic strip featuring the Doctor's oldest enemies—and a character that may or may not have survived. The art improves significantly from recent strips. The scope feels genuinely cinematic with the Dalek Death Wheel. But here's the question: did the ending rush a story that deserved more room to breathe? John appreciates the scale; Jim wishes the narrative had time to match it. Both wonder if this Dalek adversary will return. Music & Memory TARDIS "The Psychic Circus" by Christopher Guard (who played Bellboy) is a curiosity—an actual song written specifically about an episode, not the show itself. Peter Davison's final story, "The Caves of Androzani," offers stunning supporting characters and a presidency subplot that overshadows the main narrative. One host loves it unreservedly; the other would only revisit select scenes. What Doctor Who Needs Now With RTD out and the show facing a complete reset, Jim and John discuss what a new showrunner should do. Forget continuity complications? Embrace them? How long should the silence last? Should the next Doctor arrive on screen with no explanation, like Eccleston did? Can a complete reboot work? Should there even be a TARDIS anymore? These aren't answered so much as explored—and the conversation suggests the wilderness years ahead might be exactly what the franchise needs.

The Marrieds are back to review one of the lesser loved Dalek stories. As usual, Jake finds a way to make most of them admit that it's actually awesome.

Jim experiences a breakthrough moment that surprises everyone—after struggling through Season 24, "Remembrance of the Daleks" finally answers the question: who is the Seventh Doctor? Special guest Alan J. Porter joins to celebrate this landmark story as the 25th Anniversary season begins with what may be one of the finest Dalek stories ever produced. What Changed? Everything came together—writing, acting, production values, and most critically, McCoy's characterization. The switch has been thrown. Jim identifies the Seventh Doctor as something unexpected: the anti-human Doctor, more realistic and pointed about humanity's flaws than previous incarnations. The umbrella becomes his signature prop. The chemistry with Ace finally clicks. Ace Equals Ripley Sophie Aldred's companion proves to be exactly what this TARDIS team needed. The hosts discuss how the show has shifted from Star Wars obsession to Alien inspiration, and why Ace works when so many companions before her didn't. Alan reveals this is his favorite Doctor/companion pairing across all of Who. Behind the Scenes Revelations Ben Aaronovitch was 24 years old when he wrote this—his first TV script ever. The dinner between McCoy, Aldred, Cartmel and the writers that changed the creative dynamic. The full-size Dalek shuttle that required a crane. McCoy's script page system in his coat pockets. Mark Ayers' rejected score that would have ruined everything. The IRA bomb scare during filming. Production Details & Cast Connections The only time Keff McCullough's music works. Michael Sheard's final Doctor Who appearance. George Sewell from UFO. Pamela Salem's James Bond connection. Dursley McLinden's tragic story. How Sophie Aldred still has Ace's jacket. The misspelled junkyard sign. John Leeson's voice work. 1963 Setting Perfection Alan praises the period-accurate set dressing that transported him back to his childhood. The TV detector van reference. Why Ace was confused by pre-decimal money. Elvis and Beatles music dating the story. Returning to Coal Hill School and Totter's Lane without requiring viewers to remember "An Unearthly Child." The Special Weapons Dalek Instant fan-favorite design that demonstrates Dalek civil war escalation. Why it works as a one-story deployment. Its weathered appearance compared to pristine white Imperial Daleks. Confirmation it returns in the Matt Smith era. Davros and Mythology The Emperor Dalek reveal subverts expectations. Imperial versus Renegade factions fighting for supremacy. The Hand of Omega as stellar manipulator. Century 21 comic design influence. Terry Molloy's final televised appearance as Davros (though Big Finish continues). Terry Nation's reluctant approval. The Skaro Problem Jim identifies the massive continuity issue everyone must discuss: the Doctor destroyed Skaro—but what about the Thals? How does this work with the Eighth Doctor movie? Why does Skaro appear in New Who? The paradox of destroying Skaro before first encountering Daleks. Alan's response: fandom generally brushes it under the carpet, but it doesn't stop this being a great story. Social Commentary The "no colours" sign that McCoy and Aldred fought to keep. How the story addresses 1960s racial tension without being heavy-handed. Ratcliffe's fascist group mirroring Dalek ideology. Whether this approach works better than New Who's handling of similar themes. Defining Moments The ripples speech in the café. The uncertainty around the Doctor's actions. Ace asking if they did good and the Doctor's ambiguous response. Why this exchange defines the entire season for Alan. The somber ending at Mike's funeral. Big Finish Spinoffs Group Captain Gilmore, Professor Rachel Jensen, and Dr. Allison Williams become the core of the "Countermeasures" series—following proto-UNIT adventures in spy/mystery format. The Anniversary Balance Why this feels more like a 25th anniversary story than "Silver Nemesis" (the designated anniversary episode). Callbacks and nods that reward longtime fans without requiring homework. How the story works as both standalone adventure and mythology expansion. Jim's Transformation The moment Jim admits he almost quit the podcast because he couldn't imagine McCoy getting better than this. His enthusiasm is genuine—this justifies the journey through rough patches. The question: can the show maintain this quality through the remaining seasons? This is the Final Dalek Story Confirmation that classic Who never returns to the Daleks after this. What a way to go out—not as chumps, but with one of their finest stories. Alan J. Porter Updates Casino Royale book complete and off to publishers (spring 2027 target). Second expanded Star Trek comics history in progress. "Saloons, Jungles and City Streets" Victorian adventure collection available now. Pulp Fest appearance coming in Pittsburgh where Jim and Alan will finally meet in person after years of online collaboration. Coming Up Next: Monday Patreon Exclusive 172: Music, Memory TARDIS, and comics—"Planet of the Dead" and "Echoes of the Mogor," plus the looming "Emperor of the Daleks" epic. Wednesday Main Feed: "The Happiness Patrol" - Jim handles narration for what he calls "the weirdest Doctor Who story title ever."

It's time to once again say “hello!” to everyone's favourite pepper pots – the Daleks – as they return to their creator Davros, in Resurrection of the Daleks. But do the creatures and their creator have the same agenda? We're about to find out as we tackle this action-packed and violence-filled adventure! Join us as we talk about high body counts (no, not that type!), the weakness of the Daleks as they come out of their war, the increasingly shouty nature of Davros (and his choking noises), the Doctor using a handgun, cats in Doctor Who, the British obsession over tea, and how a bunch of current world leaders might actually be destabilizing Dalek sleeper agents. Meanwhile, Julie really wants every British actor ever to have been in Z Cars.
