"Image of the Fendahl" Production 4X October 29 - November 19, 1977 A 12,000,000 year old skull may prove to be more than just a link to an alien presence on Earth as the Fendhal prepares to take over. Podcaster John S. Drew and writer/editor Jim Beard join forces once again to become the masters of time and space as they watch and review every single episode of the Classic Doctor Who series. In this episode, they discuss the lack of K9, the missed opportunities of Wanda Ventham as a Fendahl, and the wonderful character of Martha Tyler.

Some corners of the universe have bred the most terrible things - they must be fought. The Doctor, Fitz and Compassion are set to encounter an old enemy of his - the Fendahl! We take a look at The Taking of Planet 5. Joining us, as ever, are editor Steve Cole, plus writers Mark Clapham and Simon Bucher-Jones.

Welcome back to our “Beasts” Double Bill! Last time, we watched "The Dummy" from the infamous anthology series by General Witchfinders hero Nigel Kneale. We now leave the smashed-up movie set of "The Dummy" with its snarling Y-fronts-wearing jilted actor and join Angie and Roger Truscott in their secluded Hampshire home for "During Barty's Party." This episode features the only actual 'beasts' as the main threat: in this case, large, super-evolved, intelligent rats. Elizabeth Sellars plays Angie Truscott, known for "The Mummy's Shroud," and Anthony Bate plays Roger Truscott, heavily channeling Michael Bryant's Peter Brock character from "The Stone Tape." Bate was cast as Doctor Fendehman in "Image of the Fendahl" but dropped out, with Denis Lill taking the role. Colin Bell plays Barty Wills, the local DJ hosting the titular "Barty's Party," his regular rock and roll radio show. Like the rest of the cast, Bell is only heard, not seen. He is seen, however, in "The Sea Devils" and "Invasion of the Dinosaurs," both Jon Pertwee stories. Norman Mitchell plays the Police Sergeant. Supposedly, at 18, Mitchell walked from Sheffield to London to become an actor, leading to nearly 200 film appearances, 500 radio broadcasts, and an estimated 2,000 television appearances. He developed a niche of playing policemen, appearing as such in 12 episodes of "Worzel Gummidge," "Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell" (more on this very soon), "And Now the Screaming Starts!", "Oliver!" and the first Doctor Who Christmas episode, "The Feast of Steven." John Rhys-Davies plays Peter Newell. Famous for his parts in Lord of the Rings and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Rhys-Daviesis a supporter of the British Conservative Party, Rhys-Davies was a radical leftist in the '60s, who tried to heckle a young Tory MP. But the parliamentarian "shot down the first two hecklers in such brilliant fashion that I decided I ought for once to shut up and listen". The MP was Margaret Thatcher. He is a supporter of Brexit. On 25 April 2019, he appeared as a panellist on the BBC's Question Time. His conduct on the programme towards politician Caroline Lucas was later described as "thuggish and sexist" by some viewers.

Here's the commentary for Image Of The Fendahl! Missed the ep? Listen to it here: https://soundcloud.com/friendsforcingfriends/e94

We continue our journey through all of Doctor Who, as we discuss the third serial of Season 15: Image of the Fendahl. Received fan wisdom has this as being one of the better stories of the season… however, we're in our controversial era this season – will we find gothic Who's final story be a worthy last hurrah, or will we find it to be as limp as a salt-covered leech? Listen in to find out!   Join us as we discuss Benedict Cumberbatch's Mum, Big Finish's inevitable “Leaky the Dog” series (featuring Jackie Tyler), the sloppy kitchen sink approach of lazy representations of the occult, Reilly's dislike of squelching, and the Doctor's hypocrisy with Time Lords. We also ask the important questions like “why does Leela look like she's going to Coachella?”   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

In a priory near the village of Fetchborough, four scientists, Adam Colby, Max Stael, Thea Ransome and Dr. Fendelman, are doing tests on a human skull they found in Kenya, apparently twelve million years old. When Dr. Fendelman starts using a sonic time scan, trying to get an image of the owner of the skull, the skull itself seems to react, locking onto Thea and releasing something in the priory grounds that kills a passing hiker, who eventually totally disintegrates. The scan catches the attention of the Fourth Doctor and Leela when they are pulled down to Earth by it. They set off to find it before it creates a continuum implosion and destroys the planet. They separate and Leela finds the cottage of ‘Mother' Tyler, a local modern-day witch gifted with psychic powers. The Doctor ends up narrowly avoiding death at the hands of the creature created by the skull, which then kills the leader of a detachment of guards Fendelman has brought in after the death of the hiker, sealing everyone into the priory. Ma Tyler then encounters the creature but survives and is saved from going into psychic shock by the Doctor, who by this time has worked out that the thing is a Fendahleen, a creature from his planet's mythology, supposedly destroyed when the Fifth Planet broke up. He makes his way into the priory and finds the skull, which tries to kill him. Leela saves him and they go off to the Fifth Planet, only to find that the Time Lords sealed the planet in a Time Loop, making all proper records invisible even to them. Thea, meanwhile, has been gradually converted into the new core of the Fendahl, a creature that feeds off life energy and leaves nothing behind. Stael, leader of the local black magic cult, recognises this and believes he can control the Fendahl and use it to dominate. He and his followers capture Colby, kill Fendelman, who was actually influenced through his genetics by the Fendahl to bring this about, and set up the Sonic Time scanner to power the skull and Thea's final transformation. The Doctor, Leela, Ma Tyler and her grandson Jack head for the priory only to find the Fendahl core has formed and is converting the cult members into Fendahleen, to form the full circle. The Doctor frees Colby and helps Stael shoot himself after killing one of the new Fendahleen, in turn finding out that they are fatally allergic to salt, leaving the Fendahl core two short of the twelve it needs to be complete and form a gestalt. The Doctor rigs the scanner to implode upon itself and grabs the now dormant skull, leaving with the others only just before the priory is destroyed, along with the Fendahl core and the remaining Fendahleen. The Doctor and Leela then leave and plan to dump the skull near a supernova, thus ending the Fendahl race forever.

Doctor Who Image of Fendahl part 1

A psychic skull straight from the Doctor's nightmares terrorizes a small blue-green planet in the local system. Will our podcasters make it through without going into psychic shock?

Classic Doctor Who! Doesn't it feel so good to be in that warm, cozy blanket? Well, there might be a few burrs in this specific blanket as Image of The Fendahl rubs us the wrong way in places. On the one hand, we're happy to see Tom Baker and Louise Jameson again, but at the same time there's almost too much going on in this story and it gets kinda dark at times...does things we're honestly surprised to see on Doctor Who!

Well, let me just open this door, and see- AUGH! OH MY GOSH! It's a British science fiction television show with a rich history and devoted fanbase! AUUUUGH!

Paul takes us to Ghastly Grange to see what's inside someone's head. MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL OF US! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

WhoSoc does horror in our halloween special, so pay attention to these spooky stories. And tell me...whatever happened to the Lord President?

We're back down to Earth this week as we head to Fetch Priory and get involved in the machinations of a very evil skull. Join us as witness the Image of the Fendahl.

After last weeks lighter, cheaper tone, we're back to a more darker, serious story similar to last season. Skulls, Breakfast and Slugs!

For years, scientists have debated about how exactly human life started on Earth. Now, after a startling discovery, one such group of academics stand poised to unlock the secrets to mankind's origins. This week, Paddy and Tricia follow The Doctor and Leela as they race against the clock to stop an ancient evil from accidentally being awakened. Will they be in time or will humanity be forced to evolve in the Image of the Fendahl?

And, incidentally, a Happy Halloween, to all of you at home. Welcome to the first episode of Doctor Who Literature made after the airing of "The Power of the Doctor", the BBC centenary episode, and the last hurrah for Jodie Whittaker and Chris Chibnall. I appeared on Trap One earlier this week to discuss the episode. And be sure to check out DWLit vets Conrad, Mark, and Pete, discussing the Disney/Doctor Who news. Joining Jason this week to break down "Image of the Fendahl" is friend of the podcast and TV producer David Barsky, who brings us news on his latest series, braves a round of "20 Questions", talks cross-country travel, and discusses just what merit might be found in this slender novelization. Plus, a surprising abundance of jokes about novelization author Terrance Dicks' surname. This is your last week to contribute any audio recollections in advance of next week's special Episode 50, covering "The War Games" and its novelization. "Doctor Who and the Image of the Fendahl" features cover art by John Geary. Doctor Who Literature is now a member of the Direction Point Doctor Who podcast network. Please e-mail the pod at DrWhoLiterature@gmail.com. You can catch all past episodes at https://anchor.fm/doctorwholit.

In a change of plans, we delve into the 1977 Doctor Who story "Image of the Fendahl". This episode is dedicated to Jasper, who was the best dog ever and who passed shortly before this recording. He is fucking missed.

It's fitting that, as we approach Halloween, we should have a slice of Folk Horror, as we look at the Fendahl.

Put kettle on! Because this month, Ken and Mike take a look at "Image of the Fendahl", one of the few Doctor Who stories involving cosmic horror ... and boy, do they have a lot to talk about! Among other things, they discuss whether or not Colby is the most annoying character in Classic Who, baby Fendahline plushies, and the plausibility of the Fendahl's plan to take over humanity. It's a good one this month, folks, so get yourself a piece of fruitcake, sit back, relax, and listen!

An ancient evil. Misguided scientists. If you're thinking, "Oh, we simply have to get these guys together," you might be a Doctor Who writer from the '70s. But if you're going to go ahead and mix this pair of volatile ingredients, it's probably best to throw in at least one wisecracking supporting character, a few paper-mâché monsters, and some ambitious ideas about the true nature of human evolution. Put it all into a delightfully sinister horror-movie backdrop on the English countryside, and you've got Image of the Fendahl, the last stab of Tom Baker's "scary" era. It's well-remembered, but can it still frighten? Or make sense? Pour some extra salt on your pretzels, and set coordinates for the Fifth Planet… Please leave a review!

Today's episode is the second half of our interview with Tim Foley. Script-writer, Playwright and Big Finish fan, Foley wears some incredible hats. The back half of our conversation covers upcoming releases such as The Gulf, previous ones such as Night of the Fendahl, and your host coming off as a bumbling fool as he confuses two episodes in a boxset he should have re-listened to before the show.

A museum? On a planet, you say? Amazingly, that’s just where TARDIS brings Doctor Who and chums in The Space Museum. But the problems here are worse than an expensive gift shop, a blocked urinal or a coach party of feral school kids. For the planet Xeros is occupied by the moaning Morocks, a race only slightly less pathetic than the indigenous teenage beatniks, among whom subjugation raises barely/only an eyebrow. And our plucky travellers have problems of their own, chiefly their future starring roles in the most boring tourist attraction since the financially disastrous Sensorites’ Sexy Sashes exhibition. Our heroes deal with the trauma in their own individual ways though, with the Doctor kipping for an episode, Vicki stirring up the students, Babs having a smoke break and Ian chewing her cardigan. Will the time travellers evade their fate? Would you buy a used glass from Vicki? What day is Nude Day on the TARDIS? And did Jim and Martin find themselves informed and entertained by The Space Museum or is it just a dusty old relic? Listen to find out! The lads also review the audiobooks of The Curse of Peladon and Image of the Fendahl. You can also find this and many other Krynoid PodCast episodes on Spotify.

Many of you may still be locked up with your family but, with any luck, your house-mates don’t include a glowing alien skull, a gun-toting Teuton and a creepy occultist. Even Benylin Bandersnatch’s mum would be of little comfort, haunted as she is by a noisy, slimy creature (named Adam Colby). The TARDIS team come to the rescue but K9’s lost his voice, Leela’s lost some of her hair and the Doctor’s lost his ability to distinguish Jelly Babies from Liquorice Allsorts. Luckily, the Tylers (not those Tylers!) are on hand to dispense cake, rock salt and Mummerset premonitions. But did Image of the Fendahl give Jim and Martin a burst of primal power or suck out their collective life-force? Listen to find out! We also review the audiobooks of The Five Doctors and The Daemons. Also available on Spotify.

The 4th Doctor encounters an impossible million-year-old human skull with psychic powers, a witch cult, and an obsessed tech tycoon. Jimmy Akin, Dom Bettinelli, and Fr. Cory Sticha discuss this creepy tale that features Benedict Cumberbatch's mom as the guest star.

Ben returns to the podcast for a Halloween special as we discuss the spooky goings on in Hide and Image of the Fendahl. Two stories, it soon turns out, that are quite evenly matched. (About time, 77 episodes in) Under discussion: The perils of dropping the T-Bomb, reaching the age where 'totty for the dads' is directed at you, the flaws of the show's sci-fi format, two(!) sequels to Image of the Fendahl, some opinions on Ravenous 4, and a competition over whose girlfriend is least interested in Doctor Who.

This 7&7 entry comes from the year 1977. That's two whole 7s! Join Deb, Erika and Katrina as we talk about how much we love Ma Tyler, the echoes we see in RTD's era of Doctor Who, the relationship between the Doctor and Leela, the many tropes (the good and the bad), and much more! What do you think about "Image of the Fendahl"? Is it a classic? Middling? Are the baby fendahleen adorable? Let us know in the comments! ^E Happy things: Kat is excited to listen to Louise Jameson reading the novelisation of this very story! Erika is head-over-heels in love with the amazing Lazy Doctor Who spreadsheet Listener Sam from Texas created! Deb had a lovely in-person interaction with fellow fangirl Lisa Grimm!

With all the best intentions (and the glowing skull of Eustace) we set out to fully enjoy this horror story from Series 15...but there are a few bumps along the way. Performances are enjoyable from both Baker and Jameson, and the supporting cast does a great job of punching up their roles to suit the story's brooding horror. The script from Chris Boucher gives us a buffet-table of entertainment options to pick at. But is the meal satisfying once the dishes are cleared?

First off, quick production note: For whatever reason, I kept calling Malorie Blackman “Marjorie Blackman” in my review. And I have no idea why. I might’ve just been nervous from not having recorded in so long. Or I might’ve been struggling with having less notes in front of me than I usually do. I’m not sure. Either way, I deeply apologize for getting her name wrong. How embarrassing! Anyway, aside from all that, this is honestly a difficult episode for me to publish. As I stated in my ‘State of the Podcast’ blog post, I try my very best to keep things on my show (mostly) positive and try to look for the best in the show. But, at the end of the day, I also have to be honest about my reactions and so, after a lot of soul searching, I made this episode chatting about my feelings in regards to Series 11. And, yes, many of those feelings are negative. So, if that’s something you’re avoiding, being that my intention is to not kill people’s squee, this might possibly be an episode to skip. I do hope you give it a listen, though. I did my best to frame my criticisms as fairly as I could and also tried my best not to devolve into just mindless ranting. Also, on a positive note, I discuss what is on the horizon for my show, with a series where I’m going to be rejuvenating the podcast by indulging in far more positive chats about my favorite show. Anyway, again, I hope you will all join me as I talk about through some pretty hard feelings from this past season of Doctor Who -- along with some bonus Happy Fandom Time squee in there, to temper any angst, of course! Glad to have you all aboard and do enjoy the ride (it’s going to be a bit of a bumpy one)!

@Tindogpodcast reviews @BigFinish    This title was released in March 2019. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until May 31st 2019, and on general sale after this date. Torchwood vs Monsters! Marco makes films. You wouldn’t like them. The lighting’s shoddy, the sets are cheap and the sound’s appalling. But there’s an audience for them. Because they’re films in which bad things happen to women. Marco’s latest venture is based on real events. Events which took place in Fetch Priory many years ago. It’s an anthology piece, and Marco needs one final victim. But the last victim is not who anyone is expecting. Death has returned to Fetch Priory. And Death is no-one’s victim. Torchwood contains adult material and may not be suitable for younger listeners

It's nearly 5 o'clock on Friday, April 23, 1982 and David has a decision to make. With the weekend fast approaching, homework for sixth grade could wait, but could he put off going over to his friend's house to play the new Pac-Man game on his neighbor's Atari 2600 before dinner? Or, should he stay home and watch the new adventure of Doctor Who starting in 10 minutes. Pac-Man or Doctor Who? Decisions, decisions, decisions... This is a flashback Metebelis 2 podcast on Image of the Fendahl. Opening music is The Cars 1982 single "Think it Over". Closing music is an excerpt from the Image of the Fendahl score composed by Dudley Simpson.

This time on Who's Who, Petter and Breki sit down to watch a fairly Lovecraftian serial called Image of the Fendahl, which features ... a magical skull and some weird snake-things. Show notes and links: Image of the Fendahl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (wikipedia.org)

Skullduggery abounds in Fetch Priory when a scientist gets light-headed and goes for a wanda. She comes across an unrestrained accent, an exaggerated performance and an incontinent dog. She also finds a German fruitcake in the cellar that's gone bad, but that's okay because Rose Tyler's Grandmother has made an English fruitcake (using a LOT of salt). They all hide under a table when a mime artist with a VERY deep tan arrives and threatens to destroy all life on earth with a plague of giant, spaghetti-eating caterpillars. Help is on hand though when the TARDIS arrives in a field of cows. Watch out, mime queen…here comes Doctor MooooOOOOO.

A priory is a monastery, so a house ON the priory is… interesting. This week Kiyan and Dylan explore Chris Boucher’s final serial for Doctor Who, Image of the Fendahl. It’s almost amazing, but the dialogue falls apart. Pity. It aired in October and November of 1977. Doctor Who © The BBC Any other referencesContinue reading →

Brendan, Richard and Nathan are menaced, drugged and tied up, which means it’s either a normal Saturday night or the rather spectacular Image of the Fendahl.

The Fendahl have returned. Aaron is gone and Elan has been abducted. The Doctor faces a dangerous enemy and one of the hardest choices in his life. Can he save Elan and Aaron? Can the Fendhal be defeated this time? Will the Doctor surive...The Return of the Fendhal?

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul return once again to the literary world with a review of the Target novelisation of The Image of The Fendahl.  Probably one of the last great gothic horror Doctor Who stories produced in the 1970's, the lads compare the novel to the TV incarnation and discuss the merits of Terrance Dicks expanding of characters and also whether some of the more notorious aspects of this story make to the page. And in another slow news week, 2 more writers are announced for series 8, Doctor Who picks up 2 BAFTA's in ceremony that is held in a pub (or so Phil and Paul like to think) and in Omega's Tat Corner, 2 items of tat, one of which gets Phil excited.

In this week’s show we review two stories featuring the Fourth Doctor and Leela. First, is the television story, The Image of the Fendahl. Then we take a look at the fourth installment of last years 50th anniversary e-book series, The Roots of Evil. Also, what might just be the end of the latest missing episode rumors… or not. Plus, a look at the other news of the week. And, of course, your feedback. Enjoy! The post Episode 172 – Extraneous Clothing Accessories appeared first on Traveling the Vortex.

The Doctor leaves yet another priory house in ruins.

Leela saves the Doctor, then sleeps on the floor of the TARDIS.

The Doctor should know by now not to touch glowing skulls.

The Doctor attempts to keep Leela from killing. Repeatedly.

With just a week to go until the 2011 Doctor Who Christmas Special, the Three Who Rule cast their eyes back to a simpler time, before River Song was related to the Ponds and when a baby could turn into a puddle of goo and still be broadcast pre-watershed. Yes, "A Good Man Goes to War" was our commentary this week, with all the usual off-topic and off-color discussion you've come to know and somewhat tolerate. Add chatter of our live show at Gallifrey 2012 (two months from now!), news of departing companions, Season 7's structure, and Fendahl action figures, and you've got yourself a podcast!  Check out the show notes at http://www.radiofreeskaro.com

With the news light in the wake of Series 5 ending, the Three Who Rule were glad of a commentary to tide them over. Image of the Fendahl was the focal point thanks to the powers of the randomizer, a story that stands out for one of our hosts while merely exists for the other two. Come join the fun of the west country accents, slash writers going crazy, lost plots, a golden Wanda Ventham and just about the darkest Doctor Who story ever! And what could possibly be in store for the next installment of the summer commentary series? Check out the show notes at www.radiofreeskaro.com.

This week's Miniscope saw an appearance by Chris Boucher, best known not only for his scripts for Robots of Death, The Face of Evil and Image of the Fendahl, but also for writing for Blake's 7 (acting as script editor for the show from 1978 to 1981) and Star Cops and....his segment consisted of six minutes. The remaining time was filled with the trademarked digressionary banter known and tolerated by RFS fandom, ranging from a list of Gallifrey 2010's many exciting panels to the strange character known as Itchy Spider-man.
