Fifty years later, Sky has been reborn. But why now? And what does Sky want with the old man living in the sheltered accommodation who used to fight to save planet Earth from destroying itself... Apotheose Two teenagers, the executive of Youngwell Corporation, a discredited journalist and an old man in a nursing home are brought together when a mysterious voice calls from within an ancient burial mound in the heart of Stanton Cheyney. The crows are flying, the public are chanting, and something malevolent is about to make itself known... Deitropism Sky is reunited with old friends and is now a TV superstar. A spy has infiltrated Youngwell Corporation and Jack Diver is trying to uncover secrets. Someone has a secret wrapped inside their genes and someone else is going to discover that the trees are not quite what they seem... Calyx As the survivors of mankind struggle to live beneath the biomass of plant life that literally envelops the planet, cutting off the sunlight and the air, an old enemy of Sky’s finally manifests, determined to make things worse. As the hunt for the Juganet becomes more and more desperate, Bex Briggs discovers that one should never stand still for too long in this terrifying new world order... Sky created by Bob Baker & Dave Martin © 1975 Recorded on: 15-17 January 2025 Recorded at: The Soundhouse Video: Behind the scenes at Sky Writer, director and co-producer Gary Russell said: "There's a golden decade of kids' TV between 1972 and 1982, much of it produced by HTV and Patrick Dromgoole, often written by Bob Baker and Dave Martin. One of those gems was Sky, a show that displayed an intelligence and sophistication that many other ITV companies tried to emulate, but rarely did. "The ultimate outsider, Sky was neither good nor evil, neither a hero nor a villain. The same goes for the other characters around him: Arby, Goodchild, the Briggs family – there are marvellous moral ambiguities about all of them. "I love the original; it was a show I had grown up on and seen a thousand times, because I've got it on a nice shiny disc. Jason Haigh-Ellery turned around to me one day and said, 'Look, we've got the rights from Bob Baker to do a new version of Sky.' I think he could see the passion and fervour and begging in my eyes. He said, 'Do you want to do it?', and I said yes, because I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. I'd been thinking since 1975 about what you could do with this show, so I was very keen to sit down and get on with it. "Jason said to me, 'Do you want to do a remake?', and I said 'No, I want to do a sequel.' I wanted to pick the story up 50 years later, and therefore I knew that the only character I needed to bring back – other than Sky, obviously – was Arby. The idea of Arby, the hero of the original, being this broken old man sitting in a nursing home somewhere – I thought, that’s your good launch pad. It's about a redemption for him." "To be asked to find out what happened next, and the effect Sky's parting gift to Arby might have on a human, was too good an offer to say no to. I love these characters passionately and it's a joy to be able to tell these latest chapters in their lives – the first audio serial I've ever written for Big Finish." His co-producer Dominic G. Martin added: "The tale of Sky is an absolute belter of a story! I was born long after it aired, and despite growing up on a lot of classic TV, I only learned about Sky from Gary Russell. Hearing that Bob Baker and Dave Martin were the original serial's writers made me instantly excited to get involved. "It's a such a fascinating concept that you could pull off in any era with all its mysteries and dynamic characters. The whole cast was magnificent in the recordings – they were such a delight to work with, and I would love to think that the new series is not only a loving tribute to the work of Baker and Martin, but also builds on that grand story that they set up back in the 1970s, while keeping it accessible for a whole new generation to get immersed in." Lead actor Cloud Quinn takes over the role played by Marc Harrison in the original TV series. He said: "Sky definitely piqued my interest. I watched a little on YouTube and I read the novel of the original 1970 series, and I just loved the imagination of it. "It felt very challenging for children, but in a good way, opening their horizons to the big issues of the day around space flight and nuclear power and continuous industrialisation, and what that meant for the natural world – obviously that remains very, very relevant today. Edwin Flay, who plays Arby Vennor, added: "The audio revival is very well crafted in that you don’t need to have seen the original, but it grows from it, it feeds on it, and it brings all of the concerns very much up to date. The way our two characters have evolved from the original series and the journeys they’ve been on in the interim give it a lot of its meat for me, certainly. "In the original series, Arby Vennor was young, vibrant, and kind – a very straightforward, uncomplicated character – and now his experience has left him a broken shell. Exploring that, as he finds his drive and his sense of self again, has been a pleasure."

Episode 062: At Helium Advisors, the buddy system isn't just a strategy—it's a core component of their wealth management approach. By pairing advisors with shared goals and similar skill sets, they provide clients with more comprehensive and personalized solutions.  In this episode, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Gary Russell, Partner and Co-Founder at Helium Advisors, about Helium's buddy system, how it works, and the benefits it provides. They also discuss holistic planning and how using the right technology creates a unique client experience. In this episode: [01:49] - Gary's money moment [03:37] - What inspired Gary to become a financial advisor [05:34] - What influenced Helium's culture [07:39] - Helium's buddy system [13:22] - Holistic planning defined [18:19] - Leveraging technology for better client service [23:40] - Technology in holistic planning [26:02] - Gary's outlook on the future of the industry [27:53] - Gary's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Helium's buddy system pairs advisors together to leverage their skill sets and provide more comprehensive advice to clients. Holistic planning considers all aspects of a client's financial life, including taxes, estate, and business planning. Technology is a critical part of financial planning. Advisors need to be selective about which technologies to adopt. The future of financial planning involves more consolidation and integration of AI.  Quotes [24:30] -"If you look at where other industries have gone before us, we don't want to be in the front one percent of that technology. But we want to be in that first five or 10 percent, right? We don't want to be the testers, but we want to be the early adopters for sure." ~ Gary Russell [26:50] - "There's no way AI will seamlessly wipe us all out. You'll have a real human working in a buddy system with a few advisors and understanding what AI can do to help." ~ Gary Russell [31:22] - "The integration of the decisions that you make and how you bring them to your team really matters. We have learned that by doing it poorly and failing our way up." ~ Gary Russell Links  Gary Russell on LinkedIn Helium Advisors Howard Morin Jocko Willink Extreme Ownership Patrick Sweeny Oleg Tishkevich Envestnet J.J.

There's a fantastic new text out, kicking off a whole new range, from Roundel Books. Today, we're chatting with editor Gary Russell about The DNA of Doctor Who: The Philip Hinchcliffe Years. Kenny (who's contributed a chapter on Philip's audio stories with Big Finish) and Dave discuss their favourite stories from the era, with special guest cameo appearances from Tom Harris, Steevie Day and John Bollan!

Gary Russell has done a bit of everything in media, from acting when he was young to writing fanzines to writing for Doctor Who Magazine to working for the BBC to co-founding Big Finish Productions, which produces a variety of audio dramas for various TV series including Doctor Who, The Prisoner, Dark Shadows, and more. Gary and I talk about his journey from one opportunity to the next as a “professional fan,” including how he's made the decision both to take and to leave various positions, why he's always run his life on instinct, and why he thinks it's absolutely vital to be able to admit when you don't know what you're doing (even when it means baptism by fire), the value of freelancing—why he wouldn't have it any other way—and a lot more. I really think you'll get a lot out of my conversation with Gary Russell, even if you've never seen an episode of Doctor Who.  Episode breakdown: 00:00 Early desire to be a stuntman leads to acting classes/jobs. 08:56 Other kids at school unimpressed by acting jobsl. 11:35 Switching out of acting. 20:34 People are conditioned not to admit ignorance. 26:28 Recognizing natural endings and embracing them rather than holding on too long. 29:40 Facing uncertainty. 33:30 Embrace new experiences, live a fulfilling life. 36:12 Doctor Who fanzines/freelancing lead to running Doctor Who Magazine. 46:23 Input from others shaped Gary's core philosophy. 50:14 Warriors of the Deep: Script is good, but the execution is fatally flawed. 58:15 Ignore negativity, focus on what's important. 01:04:28 The birth of Big Finish Productions. 01:14:32 Moving to the BBC to work on Doctor Who. 01:23:37 Pension provides security, but Gary will never stop working. 01:27:24 Advice for anyone interested in freelancing.

It's obvious that we at the Power of 3 love our Doctor Who books. We kick off a mini-series of episodes looking at the latest Target novelisations, with a look at The Star Beast. We chat with editor Steve Cole, author Gary Russell and cover artist Anthony Dry, as we reveal all about the making of these gems. We also feature an excerpt from the audiobook version, as read by Jacqueline King, courtesy of BBC Audio.

Gary Russell has done a bit of everything in media, from acting when he was young to writing fanzines to writing for Doctor Who Magazine to working for the BBC to co-founding Big Finish Productions, which produces a variety of audio dramas for various TV series including Doctor Who, The Prisoner, Dark Shadows, and more. Gary and I talk about his journey from one opportunity to the next as a “professional fan,” including how he's made the decision both to take and to leave various positions, why he's always run his life on instinct, and why he thinks it's absolutely vital to be able to admit when you don't know what you're doing (even when it means baptism by fire), the value of freelancing—why he wouldn't have it any other way—and a lot more. I really think you'll get a lot out of my conversation with Gary Russell, even if you've never seen an episode of Doctor Who.  Episode breakdown: 00:00 Early desire to be a stuntman leads to acting classes/jobs. 08:56 Other kids at school unimpressed by acting jobsl. 11:35 Switching out of acting. 20:34 People are conditioned not to admit ignorance. 26:28 Recognizing natural endings and embracing them rather than holding on too long. 29:40 Facing uncertainty. 33:30 Embrace new experiences, live a fulfilling life. 36:12 Doctor Who fanzines/freelancing lead to running Doctor Who Magazine. 46:23 Input from others shaped Gary's core philosophy. 50:14 Warriors of the Deep: Script is good, but the execution is fatally flawed. 58:15 Ignore negativity, focus on what's important. 01:04:28 The birth of Big Finish Productions. 01:14:32 Moving to the BBC to work on Doctor Who. 01:23:37 Pension provides security, but Gary will never stop working. 01:27:24 Advice for anyone interested in freelancing.

What defined the Chibnall era? How did fandom process the era? How is the era being reassessed? How did those behind the era see it when they first began work on it, and how do they see it now that it's over? Audio commentaries, interviews, panel discussions — we discuss all of these through a bookending chat tracing it from the commentary for its very first episode, to Chibnall's debrief conversations over his first fan convention appearance following his era ending. We finish our series of exploring the commentaries of the Chibnall Era in a metacommentary looking at a new 2023 interview with Chibnall, the audio commentary for The Woman Who Fell to Earth, and coverage of the 2023 Gallifrey One fan convention.

The Abominable Snowmen Doctor Who animation is the centerpiece of this episode's discussion that ranges from the recent animation choices made by Gary Russell and Digitoonz to the original story by Mervyn Haisman and Henry Lincoln. Together they make a complex juxtaposition of early 2020s progressive sensibilities and late 1960s reactionism. What works and what, for lack of better words, is more Scooby-Doo than Doctor Who? The opening music is "Dakto Karpo" and closing music is "Rinchen Chabum" both from the 1975 recording Tibetan Folk Songs from Lhasa and Amdo. We recorded this episode on 8 January 2023.

Gary Russell joined the show, and while time kept us from going deep into some storytelling, we were able to explore his timeline of involvement within the community of the rink, and did get at least a few good tales in the show. He talks about his time playing, and then how it quickly translated to coaching when he wrapped up. Enjoy what is hopefully the first of a two part series with Gary!   thegardensicehouse.com beautyunis.com

Doctor Who fandom is aflutter this week with the release of a glorious new trailer announcing the casting of none other than Matt Berry as the new Doctor Who! Of course this was all a cunning April Fool's jape by none other than Who animator Rob Ritchie, but if you enjoy profane nonsense we highly recommend it. The REAL trailer this week for “Legend of the Sea Devils” also charmed us with its soggy swashbuckling (of seatbelts), and of course we have the usual Big Finish blast of new announcements, Peter Davison convention shenanigans, and the third episode of our Classic Series Commentary for “Planet of Evil”! Enjoy, or be banished to a pit full of anti-matter!
