The Key to Time "The Armageddon Factor" Production 5F January 20 - February 20, 1979 The final segment to the Key to Time may prove the most difficult to find as the Black Guardian and his henchman, the Shadow, are hot on the trail as well. 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 John's devotion to Lalla Ward, Romana's poor exit, and the legacy of Mary Tamm.

It's time for our Season 16 Big Finish bonus episode! Join us as we encounter the Upper Class Twit of the Year, his “Aunt,” and a succession of poor women who've had their bodies stole in The Auntie Matter! Join us as we discuss how good it would have been if Reggie had been played by Hugh Laurie, the charm of English place names, Romana's judgemental tendencies, inter-class relationships, and just why Reggie is such an idiot (and if his repeated mind-wipes might be the cause)! Of course, we talk about Mary Tamm's tragic illness that led to her passing before this story was even released. Rest in Peace!

The Armageddon Factor is the sixth and final serial of the 16th season of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly parts on BBC1 from 20 January to 24 February 1979. It was the last to feature Mary Tamm as Romana. The serial is set on the planets Atrios and Zeos, and another planet in between them. In the serial, a nuclear war between Atrios and Zeos is nearing its end, but with Atrios losing. At the same time, the Shadow (William Squire), a henchman of the Black Guardian (Valentine Dyall), steals the time and space vessel the TARDIS, which contains the first five segments of the powerful Key to Time, and kidnaps Princess Astra of Atrios (Lalla Ward), who is the sixth and final segment.
Straight Outta Gallifrey is here to talk about the Doctor and Romana in France during the tail end of the roaring 20's. One might think about Black Orchid, the Lindy Hop, the Charleston and glamour, but this story leans into alien invasion, death and excellent narration by the great Mary Tamm.

Author Sara Century joins the Critical Gallifreyan Theory to talk about the Armageddon Factor, where we say good-bye to Mary Tamm, cheer on Drax and encourage Sara to come back to talk about Destiny of the Daleks.

FIRE! FIRE! Yes, in this episode, Ken & Mike are wrapping up the "Key to Time" saga with a look at its final episode, "The Armageddon Factor", and ... holy padding, Rassilon! Still, our hosts find a bunch of good things to talk about (Romana! The Marshal!), some not-so-good-things (the Shadow ... MWAH HAH HAH!), and then lots of oddities (like Drax). Besides the story itself, they also look at whether or not the Key to Time season worked as a whole, and Mary Tamm's time as the first Romana. Lots to discuss, so have a listen!
Hey, did you know that no one makes a fool of the Graff Vynda-K ... and lives? If you do, then you know that Ken & Mike are covering "The Ribos Operation" this month, as they begin their look at the "Key to Time" season of Classic Doctor Who! There's a lot to look at in this terrific story, including the introduction of Mary Tamm's Romana, the highly entertaining double act of Garron & Unstoffe, and Binro the heretic, who was indeed right. Good stuff this month, so have a listen!
Pirate Month continues with Adam watching the Tom Baker Doctor Who episode 'The Pirate Planet Part Two,' and is delighted by how camp Mary Tamm is as Romana. Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Join Joe & Steven as they discover what everybody is wearing on Tara this year! Much talk of fandoms, glorious podcasts, location work, Mary Tamm, irreverence, styles of shooting Doctor Who, and how Steven found this silly, wonderful show. I'm bewitched by a man whose podcasting I've enjoyed myself for ages.
We discuss season 16, the Key to Time, where for David, Doctor Who mingles freely with Dungeons & Dragons. Ben explains how writing a season arc always seems easier than it is and that it's important to know how the arc will conclude before running out of money. David explains why he believes Philip Madoc was not miscast in The Power of Kroll and Ben wishes that the production team of Graham Williams and Tony Read had done a better job of crafting stories for Mary Tamm so she would have stayed for season 17. Opening music is Dick Mill's sound scape for the "White Guardian's Windbells". Closing music is from "The Stones of Blood" soundtrack composed by the Dudley Simpson. This episode was recorded 15 August 2020.
Episode 85 - With our 'normal' reality in lockdown and frankly a bit pants, Rob and Mark go all Sliders (the TV show not the small burgers) and use our fanwank powers to discuss many ‘what if’ scenarios about Doctor Who as suggested by you our wonderful listeners!!! What if Ray Cusick hadn't designed the Daleks? What if Zoe had stayed on for Season 7? How about Mary Tamm as the 5th Doctor? What does the tv landscape look like if The Dark Dimension is made? And was Pigbin Josh the Watcher all along? All this, plus recommendations on 'family friendly' comedy films of the 1980's, the length of Rob's new 'rocking' lockdown mullet and will Mark's latest attempts at 'humour' finally make the Indiana Jones of film collecting hand over some 'artefacts'? (hot tip - no!)

Another blah-de-blah per request! Howdy out to all my pen pals, “YOU'RE ALIVE!” Also appreciating the kindhearted nature of folks who feel they “ought” to do better. Hopefully by this time hunkering down at home has shown most people how using “social” media to solely keep-in-touch isn't very healthy. Going through Pit episodes 20, 21, and 22. Basic steps in each episode of the story.#20 “Bark At The Moon”#21 “Up The Damned Staircase”#22 “The Endless Night At Collinwood” In all of these episodes, I shall let loose my newest slogan, which is: “To boldly go where EVEN Bella Heathcote's Josette has NEVER gone before!” :)Technical problems with The Addams Family scene in #22, with love to Lurch (Ted Cassidy), however strange… on either side. Also some love for John Karlen as I continue performing the role of Willie Loomis through this series. Later topics are lack of fear to “spoilers”, enjoying a story, watching “That Darn Cat” again, going to a source over relying on gossip, as well as how I moderated alcohol beginning in 2007 and 2008. (Advertising posters will display, “Drink responsibly,” but whoever explains how that works?) Current detoxing and moderation this year. How other things make efforts to be moderated through regulation, whereas social networks do not currently carry the same regulations that other addictive substances or even appliances have. Fun wrap up with my enjoyment of the commentary for “The Ribos Operation” by Mary Tamm and Tom Baker.
Ben and Mark take to Zoom for the first On the Time Lash video podcast - discussing 'Time Heist' and 'The Ribos Operation' so apologies in advance for the occasionally tinny audio. Mark discovers that 'Time Heist' has less in common with 'Ocean's 11' and more in common with something else entirely and Ben's left cold by the wintry charms of Ribos. Under discussion: Female villains, casting speculation, the 12th Doctor's character, Sgt. Bilko, con artists and Tom Baker coming face to face with God. Also: The cracks in Eric Roberts' living room, Mary Tamm in Poundland Wonderland and Scottish words.

This week, I'm joined by Luke Harrison (http://www.themomentpod.com/guests/luke-harrison), as we discuss the encounter between Unstoffe the con man and Binro the Heretic from 1978's The Ribos Operation.

Teabagging a meccano set. Giant squid with irritable bowl syndrome. Swampie lovin' with Philp Madoc. Post-modern post-colonialism. Mary Tamm tied up. Did we mention the giant squid? It's ENORMOUS. THIS IS A SERIOUSLY BIG SQUID. Yes, it's the Power of Kroll.
Straight Outta Gallifrey is back! Warriors' Gate is the topic of episode 44. Unfortunately, this is good bye to Romana, as far as on screen appearances are concerned. The adventures of Romana will continue to be a topic of discussion with the Big Finish audio plays and beyond. Lalla Ward and Mary Tamm both deserve praise for breaking such new ground with playing the first returning, mainstay Time Lady. See Straight Outta Gallifrey's review of The Invasion of Time, where we discuss the first every on screen Time Lady. Now if evidence is ever revealed that Susan Foreman is more than just a Gallifreyan, but a Time Lord as well, we will go back and discuss the Susan stories. Contact us on www.wrightonnetwork.com

Mary Tamm was perhaps mostly known for her role as Romana in Dr. Who, but she had had a long and varied career in TV, film and theatre. Fellow actress and friend Jenny Runacre speaks here with Mary about her work in this touching and funny interview – one of the last she did before sadly passing away in 2012. She will be greatly missed. #DrWho #MaryTamm #DoctorWho #Ramona
It’s the start of an exciting new season of Doctor Who. Terry Nation’s back and Mary Tamm isn’t, but we still manage to pull ourselves together long enough to discuss Destiny of the Daleks.
In this episode Daniel and Shana are finishing up the Key to Time with The Armageddon Factor. It's the end of Mary Tamm, the beginning of Lalla Ward, and K-9 gets taken over by an alien menace. Also there's some fairly obvious Cold War stuff going on, a supercomputer that can't be stopped, and some discussion of distant godlike beings. Main Topic: The Armageddon Factor.

In this episode, Shana and Daniel explore the first credit on Doctor Who of the late, great Douglas Adams. Does his signature style work well within the Whoniverse? Furthermore, is the Fourth Doctor just turning into kind of a dick? Also: why do people hate Romana I so much? A theory is proposed. Main Topic: The Pirate Planet. Shana gets the plot. Robot parrot. Talk like a pirate. Neil Gaiman. Bruce Purchase. Moons of Madness! Adams and Moffat. Jelly babies. Named female characters. The awesomeness of the Nurse. Postmodernism and visual indicators. It doesn't look opulent. Formula. Not pasta. Text versus performance. Not following the plot. Contradicting forces. Tom Baker chews scenery. Pacing pacing pacing. Moving on to the positive. Romana the grad student. "People think she's a bitch." Openly misogynist criticism. He fakes it 'til he makes it. Not talking about the pirates as capitalist metaphor. A Pirate Ruling Class? Whither the Mentiads? Shana references Curse of the Black Spot. The 1978 Christmas Tape. Mary Tamm's outfit. "If you want to dress like a pirate at Studio 54." Beating a dead horse.

In 2013 comedian, actor and TV knowledge-base Toby Hadoke set out to interview someone connected with every Doctor Who story recorded for TV in the show's first 50 years. In the process he assembled a wealth of conversations with many of the people who've made the show all we know and love...
In this week episode, the Who's He? Podcast look at another Big Finish title The Auntie Matter starring Tom Baker and Mary Tamm. In this tale of chinless wonders, maiden Aunts and apologetic murderous robot butlers, Phil and Paul lament the fact this is the first ever story that they have reviewed that features Mary Tamm and can't believe why they haven't featured her so far and they discuss whether this story really fits in with season 16. And in the news, there are no stats!! But there is news of Russell T. Davies of never wanting to write for Doctor Who again, some more series 9 filming news and John Barrowman announces the return of further Torchwood audio stories that gives Phil unwanted flashbacks to Miracle Day.

We've reached the end of the series 4 road and this week Phil and Paul are joined by the marvellous Chris Burgess from Radio Free Skaro to look back at Journey's End. During the course of their discussion, they let loose with their opinions on such things as Rose Tyler, easily beaten Daleks, Rose Tyler and Billie Piper, Russell T. Davies and Billie Piper and Rose Tyler. And in this weeks news, Doctor Who has lost two actors with the sad passing of Mary Tamm and Geoffrey Hughes, an announcement of a new series 7 trailer and the inclusion of Doctor Who in the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games and some 50 the anniversary stamps.

Whenever anything from the Sylvester McCoy era is the focus of an episode of Radio Free Skaro, there is bound to be disagreement. Chris and Steven are usually staunch defenders of the Seventh Doctor; Warren, to be polite, not so much. But the stories that director Alan Wareing claimed stewardship of, "The Greatest Show in the Galaxy", "Ghost Light", and "Survival" cause all three of those who Rule to convey pretty firm opinions about not only the direction of said stories, but the overall successes and faults of each one. But before Wareing's judgement in the Miniscope, we remember the eloquent and beautiful Mary Tamm who sadly passed away this past week, as well as speculate on what's to come in Doctor Who and when we will see it.
