Tread Perilously's annual Doctor Who month celebrates 20 years of the new series, starting with the Jodie Whittaker era episode "Eve of the Daleks." New Year's Eve 2021. Sarah, the owner of Elf Storage in Manchester, must keep the lights on because a certain client always turns up just before midnight on 31 December to deposit items in his storage space. He turns up, naturally enough, but so do The Doctor, Yaz, and Dan. And, soon, Daleks arrive, too. When they exterminate everyone in the building, a time loop occurs ... but all quickly becomes aware of it. Can they figure out the secret behind the loop and stop the Dalek? Erik gets into the weeds about the use of the term "reboot" in media. He also makes the case against Dan. Justin comes to his own appraisal about the character. While some gripes about then-showrunner Chris Chibnall get aired, the pair praise him for various choices in this episode. Guest stars Aisling Bea and Adjani Salmon also prove to be MVPs. Guesses are made about cuisine in Middle-earth. Despite a number of tropes, the story ends up feeling fresh. The problem with The Doctor/Yaz relationship is discussed and Dalek voices abound.
You probably think of a hammock as that flimsy sheet of cloth you string between two trees. The thing that when you get in it you either look lazy and pretentious or you simply flip over and fall to the ground losing what little dignity you have. Well, this is hammock season in show business. It's the time between the big holiday blockbusters and the big summer action movie blockbusters. Judging by the most recent box-office results people are wise to this and very few people are venturing out to the theaters right now. Maybe they're streaming, who really knows? Nonetheless, we've had a look at some of your entertainment options. We start with "The Studio" which follows a legacy Hollywood movie studio striving to survive in a world where it is increasingly difficult for art and business to live together.So it goes and hires someone played by Seth Rogen. We've all seen it and we'll let you know if it's worth your time, Then there's the controversial live action version of "Snow White" starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot. Way too much has been written about it but Bill Bregoli actually ventured out to see it. He's the only one of us brave enough. Bill McCuddy tells us about "Thank You Very Much," which is a documentary about performance artist and "song and dance man" Andy Kaufman. Neil Rosen, who likes to follow around people who wear tuxedos, tells us about "The Penguin Lessons" and his conversation with star Steve Coogan. For spy movie fans we have "Black Bag" from director Stephen Soderbergh which stars Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett. For streaming folks there's "Toxic Town" which is based on a true story and stars Jodie Whittaker and Aime Lou Wood. Aimee is also in the current season of "White Lotus" so naturally we drift off into a conversation about that. We also talk about a controversy surrounding Johnny Carson's couch and Bill M tells us about his conversation with Alec Baldwin. So even if none of what Hollywood is offering right now interests you at least you've got us to listen to.

STEVE HATCHER on twenty years of "New Who"First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on March 23rd 2025.This week, perhaps rather astonishingly, March the 26th will bring with it the twentieth anniversary of DOCTOR WHO returning to our television screens in its shiny new incarnation after a rather lengthy break which found it pretty much adrift in the time continuum for over a decade and a half, despite the odd big night in to entertain us with.During those “wilderness years” there had been several glimpses of the old Time Lord who simply refused to fade away, and the show had been managing to flourish in other formats, but it was only when RUSSELL T DAVIES presented his own uniquely updated take on the show, now featuring CHRISTOPHER ECCLESTON in the lead role alongside BILLIE PIPER as ROSE TYLER, that the true potential of this once hugely neglected science fiction masterpiece was rediscovered, and became something of an unexpected television smash hit in the year 2005.Since then the show has become something of a cornerstone of the television schedules, not least around Christmastime and continues to go in and out of fashion and divide its fans and enemies almost in equal measure, with several fine actors DAVID TENNANT, MATT SMITH, PETER CAPALDI, JODIE WHITTAKER, and NCUTI GATWA taking on the role across the last two decades.This week we welcome back our old friend STEVE HATCHER who specifically asked if he could come back to talk about DOCTOR WHO for this anniversary, which prompted what I hope you will find an enjoyable meander around the many lives of the Time Lord and their fans.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.
Toxic Town (Netflix, 4 episodes) is the first of two series this week set in England. Jodie Whittaker stars as one of a group of women in Corby in the Midlands that gave birth to children with physical abnormalities. They subsequently took the local council to court in a battle over compensation to prove that neglect of toxic waste was the cause. Don’t miss a super performance from the wonderful Aimee Lou Wood. Smoggie Queens (Binge/Foxtel, 6 episodes) is a hilarious comedy about the group of LGBTQ friends in Middlesbrough, northern England. The series is written by and stars Phil Dunning as the unforgettable Dickie. He gives many of the best lines though to Mark Benton’s character Mam. The White Lotus (S3 Binge/Foxtel, 8 episodes) has finally turned up on the TV Gold radar. It has taken three seasons, but we are well and truly hitched to the wagon. This season is set in Koh Samui which coincidentally is where co-host James Manning was when this episode was recorded. Some hilarious characters this season led by Jason Isaacs as a wealthy businessman whose business seems to be spiraling out of control. His family includes Parker Posey as his wife and Patrick Schwarzenegger as their eldest son. The most interesting couple are arguably Aimee Lou Wood and her older and richer partner Walton Goggins. This episode also talk about the new streaming service Tubi which is ramping up in Australia and give co-host Andrew Mercado some homework for next week.

In the 1990s, mothers in the English industrial town of Corby noticed their children were born with similar disabilities. Could they have been poisoned during their pregnancies by toxic waste being removed from the old steel mill? Led by Susan McIntrye, the group rallied to seek justice, but the borough council denied there was any connection between the children and the reclamation project essential to the city's future. The mothers hit stonewalls in their quest for the truth, but a crusading lawyer and a disgraced whistleblower might have the information vital to their case. Jodie Whittaker, Aimee Lou Wood, and Rory Kinnear lead an all-star cast in the Netflix series Toxic Town. Based on the true story of the groundbreaking environmental negligence case, the series follows the efforts of the women as they fight powerful forces to get recognition and compensation on behalf of their children. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews writer and series creator Jack Thorne. SPOILER ALERT!

Drei neuen Serien, die sich mal mehr, mal weniger an wahren Begebenheiten entlanghangeln, haben sich Holger und Rüdiger in dieser Woche vorgenommen. Mit der Disney-Serie "A Thousand Blows" (5:11) beschäftigt sich "Peaky Blinders"-Macher Steven Knight mit einer historischen Gang-Serie, wechselt aber von Birmingham nach London wo die Geschichte der realen weiblichen Diebesbande "Forty Elephants" mit einer Zeitenwende im Boxsport kollidiert, der vom Hinterzimmer-Faustkampf zum Gentlemansport mit Boxhandschuhen übergeht. Kann der Sechsteiler, dessen zweite Staffel bereits abgedreht ist, überzeugen? Sportlich geht es auch in "Running Point" (53:28) zu, dem neuesten Netflix-Versuch ein Comedyformat auf dem Streamingdienst zu etablieren. Ist die von der Los-Angeles-Lakers-Besitzerin Jeanie Buss angestoßene und inspirierte Serie mit Kate Hudson titelverdächtig? Oder ist sie ähnlich ärgerlich wie der Luka-Doncic-Trade der Dallas Mavericks? Und schließlich beschäftigt sich der Netflix-Vierteiler "Toxic Town" (32:27) mit einem wahren Umweltskandal aus England, der zu zahlreichen Missbildungen bei Kindern führte und die betroffenen Mütter aus Corby (gespielt von Jodie Whittaker, Aimee Lou Wood und Claudie Jessie) auf einen jahrelangen Kampf für Gerechtigkeit und Entschädigung führte. Cold-Open-Frage: "Was ist uns beim neuesten Netflix Data Dump ins Auge gefallen?"
Begbie himself, and surely a frontrunner for British cinema's scariest man (on screen only, we might add), is our guest this week—it's Robert Carlyle. This time he's playing staunchly moral councilor Sam Hagen in new Netflix drama ‘Toxic Town'. Penned by Jack Thorne (of course), and with a cracking cast of Jodie Whittaker, Aimee Lou Wood, Rory Kinnear and more alongside Carlyle, it tells the true story of the Corby poisonings. Following the closure of the town's steelworks, mismanagement of toxic waste begins to affect the health of local mothers and their babies—who are dismissed by the council and must fight for justice. Robert unpacks his character, and gives us the screen zinger of the year that had us reaching for the birdsong button... Mark reviews ‘Toxic Town', as well as Indian feelgood flick ‘Superboys of Malegaon'. The Hindi language film follows a gang of amateur filmmakers whose shoestring budget spoofs of their favourite Bollywood hits become a cult phenomenon. Plus, Gia Coppola's ‘The Last Showgirl'--the story of a Las Vegas dancer's fading glamour, starring Pamela Anderson in a critically acclaimed comeback performance. All the usual box office madness and top takes from our emergency mailers too. Don't miss it!

It's an epic production starring Brian Cox, Bill Nighy, Jodie Whittaker, Fiona Shaw, India Brown and a galaxy of talent, including musical assistance from Ed Sheeran. And Peter is here to tell us all about it and make sure we all book at least one viewing of it on our Netflix wish list. We discuss how the movie came into being and what it's like working with all that talent. We discuss the connection between Walberswick and Stellar Street and why you should always surround yourself with incredible talent. Peter tells us why it's important to pay attention to the numbers but to avoid the reviews in this Neo Hollywood landscape and we learn how he uses positive reinforcement. How are Peter's advertising and creative skills useful in film making and how good is his Christmas trivia knowledge? It's all wrapped up in a bow by discussing the other greatest Christmas movie ever made. Peter is an advertising industry A-lister and now he's a movie big wig too! We were so lucky to snag him for the show and it was an incredible hour. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Does ambition have to be seen as corrupting, or like a kind of illness'? These are the questions the business writer Stefan Stern asks in his book, Fair or Foul: the Lady Macbeth Guide to Ambition. He argues that far from the cliché of a scheming wife, Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth demonstrates a more sophisticated understanding of human nature, that could help us navigate the pitfalls of ambition today.The playwright Zinnie Harris made Lady Macbeth the hero of her adaptation of the classic play last year. But now she's focused on the figure of The Duchess of Malfi, in a contemporary retelling. Played by the actor Jodie Whittaker, the Duchess defies her family's wishes and control, and asserts her own desires, with devastating results. The Duchess is on at the Trafalgar Theatre, London until 20th December.Mary Queen of Scots spent nearly two decades imprisoned under the orders of Elizabeth I. From her chambers she wrote countless letters, many of them in code. Now 400 years after her death a new cache of encrypted letters has been uncovered. Jade Scott, a historian and expert on Mary's correspondence, brings her captivity to life in Captive Queen: The Decrypted History of Mary, Queen of Scots. Producer: Katy Hickman

"Jodie Whittaker bricht nicht nur "The Glass Ceiling", was die Rolle als Doktor angeht, sondern auch als die, die am schnellsten bei Big Finish angekrochen kommt." Die Lust ist da, die Luft leider noch nicht wieder so ganz. Trotzdem soll es mit dem Whocast, so gut wir können, wieder weitergehen und den Anfang machen Raphael und André heute mit den News, die in den letzten Wochen so zusammengekommen sind. Außerdem öffnen wir endlich (leider nicht in dem erhofft feierlichen Rahmen) unser Geschenk zur 500. Sendung.

It's over for Doctor Who. The first Disney Plus bankrolled season with Ncuti Gatwa saw a massive drop off in viewers, and the season finale was the lowest EVER for a finale in the show's history. In other news, IGN threw Jodie Whittaker under the wheels of the bus to defend Gatwa. OOF. ➡️ Tip Jar and Fan Support: http://ClownfishSupport.com ➡️ Official Merch Store: http://ShopClownfish.com ➡️ Official Website: http://ClownfishTV.com ➡️ Audio Edition: https://open.spotify.com/show/6qJc5C6OkQkaZnGCeuVOD1 The viewership for the latest season of Doctor Who has significantly declined, leading to concerns about the future of the show. 00:00 Doctor Who Season 14 finale has the lowest ratings in years, and the media is trying to cope with it. 01:21 Doctor Who finale had lowest viewership ever at 2.25 million, indicating significant decline in interest, with season 14 being criticized for using diversity as an excuse for poor performance. 03:11 Jodie Whitaker is being unfairly criticized and thrown under the bus for the decline in Doctor Who's quality. 04:37 The Doctor Who finale is criticized for throwing Jodie Whittaker under the bus and having uninteresting companions and incomprehensible plotting. 06:10 The Doctor becoming conservative and the Timeless Children retcon is ruining Doctor Who. 07:14 The Doctor Who finale is the lowest ever, with criticism of Jodie Whittaker's character and the lack of a cohesive overarching story. 08:53 Doctor Who finale ratings are the lowest ever, with millions of viewers lost and no Disney+ episodes making the Nielsen charts. 09:54 Doctor Who finale has lowest ratings in 60-year history, losing over 2 million viewers and facing potential cancellation due to failed attempts to appeal to a younger audience.

Doctor Who fans clearly went outside to touch grass... and they never came back. The +7 day viewing figures for Ncuti Gatwa's first few episodes are ABYSMAL, and worse than Jodie Whittaker's last season. The Radio Times kept assuring us that viewership was going to be FANTASTIC once the +7 figures rolled in.

Today on the show: Charlie D'Agata from CBS News Radio joins us live from Ukraine. The latest from Baltimore. Jodi Schneider, political news director for Bloomberg on Joe Lieberman's passing. Golf super agent Hughes Norton. Plus, actress Jodie Whittaker from Dr. Who! 9am-noon on 95.5 WSB.
*Contains SPOILERSHosts, Dr. Angela Lauria and Matt Lowry, LPP, enthusiastically discuss the recent 4-part 60th anniversary Doctor Who specials on Disney+ overseen by returning showrunner Russell T Davies. M: T. Davies is gay himself. He's very outspoken about a great many aspects of making the world better for marginalized people.A: Yeah, so basically imagine JK Rowling, and then imagine the opposite.M: Like, yeah, he is the counterforce to JK Rowling.They highlight Davies' commitment to inclusivity through new characters like ambulatory wheelchair user Ruth Madeley. The first special "The Starbeast" features the return of David Tennant's 10th Doctor unexpectedly regenerating back following Jodie Whittaker's 13th Doctor's departure. It also brings back classic companion Donna Noble and her previously unknown transgender daughter, Rose.The third special "The Toymaker" features Neil Patrick Harris as an omnipotent, game-playing villain, The Toymaker, from classic Doctor Who. A highlight is the rules-based games between the Toymaker and the Doctor.“Whenever my sisters wanted me to keep a secret, they would bribe me with games like the number—'I'll play you three games if you don't tell mom this.' So I love the way the the special interest of gaming comes into this episode.” —AngelaThe fourth special features both Tennant and new upcoming 14th Doctor Ncuti Gatwa together, made possible through Tennant's Doctor "bi-generating" instead of regenerating. This allows multiple Doctors' timelines to co-exist. The specials end with both the 10th and 14th Doctors having their own (newly wheelchair accessible) TARDISes.Overall, the hosts are overjoyed at Russell T Davies' Doctor Who return and his ability to honor the show's past while moving it inclusively into the future. They celebrate the possibilities opened for even more Doctors to potentially return through the established plot device of "bi-generation."Are you a Whovian?
