We're donning our disco wigs and heading off to Skaro to take our penultimate look at a Dalek tale.

We’re donning our disco wigs and heading off to Skaro to take our penultimate look at a Dalek tale. The post Doctor Who Adversaries – Movellans first appeared on NEOZAZ.

Two new Doctor Who action figure sets have been released by Character Options this year. Al Dewar pops by to chat with his favourite* podcast, to discuss the creation of the Movellas and the Fugitive Doctor sets. And, he reveals just which figures the Fugitive Doctor and Movellans were used as starting points.

The hype train has left the station for Doctor Who as Entertainment Weekly, SFX, Attitude, and other pulp-based data products celebrate the impending Full-On Ncuti Gatwa Era along with the BBC and Disney+ releasing promo illustrations, and most importantly of all the release of Movellan action dollies, which caused spontaneous disco-infused celebrations across the United Kingdom. There's also the quite suspicious timing of a restored Let It Be hitting Disney+ two days before the two-part premiere of Doctor Who, and most exciting of all, Episode Four of our Classic Series Commentary for “Terror of the Autons”!

Is there a story that gets the Daleks wrong more than Destiny of the Daleks? While Douglas Adams' run on Doctor Who as script editor is revered for many reasons (mostly the story immediately following this one), his first outing is arguably a misstep. Bringing back the Daleks after a five-year absence isn't a bad idea, but shoehorning the show's most crowd-pleasing monsters into a story about two rival races of “robots” in a galactic military stalemate robs them of the essence of their terror. You can't deny the story is memorable — Davros awakes! Romana regenerates! The Movellans dance! — but Adams' unique humor laced throughout the script challenges you to take any of it seriously. You have to admire K-9's good sense to sit this one out. Play Pull To Open Bingo! Rate and review Pull To Open on Apple Podcasts! Join the conversation on Spotify!

Romana regenerates then encounters the daleks for the first time. Skaro is ravaged by a stalemated war against the Movellans. What destinies await them?

IN OCTOBER 1997, BBC Books achieved something that their predecessors at Virgin had been unable to achieve with the New and Missing Adventures - an original novel with the Daleks. Written by John Peel, a friend of Dalek creator Terry Nation, it saw the Eighth Doctor, Sam, Davros, Thals, Movellans and Daleks all feature. Today's episode features a chat with the writer, as well as range editor Steve Cole.

Tony Whitt, Alyson Fitch-Safreed, and Dalton Hughes start a new season of the podcast by talking about how awesome Lalla Ward is, how much the post-Davros Daleks suck, and whether there's anything that screams 1979 more than Movellans do.

  This title was released in April 2020. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until May 31st 2020, and on general sale after this date. Arch-foe of the Intrusion Counter-Measures Group, Lady Suzanne Clare – glamorous international arms dealer specialising in alien tech – is back. And she's branched out. She's now moved into technology and is rolling out a device designed to help out with chores around the house. As the launch date looms, Rachel Jensen and her team are determined to find out what she’s really up to and stop her. What do these devices actually do? What exactly is her latest plan? And what exactly does it all have to do with an insidious alien menace? It’s time for a home invasion.   This title was released in April 2020. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until May 31st 2020, and on general sale after this date. After the Movellan attack, the Counter-Measures team discover that key scientists who helped the Movellans are being murdered. Rachel Jensen realises that the Daleks are behind it. Soon the team finds itself in the middle of a desperate war between Daleks and Movellans. As casualties mount, the Daleks plan to explode a bomb to wipe out the Movellans. Unfortunately, it will also destroy all life on Earth. Rachel finds herself struggling to diffuse the bomb as the clock ticks down. The stakes are high and this time not everyone will make it out alive...

The Doctor and Romana find themselves, inadvertently, on Skaro centuries after he was last there (insert cross-reference to Genesis of the Daleks here). Both the Daleks and the Movellans (who appear to have escaped from a Buggles music video) are trying to find a very cobweb covered Davros way down in his base. Why are they both trying to find Davros? What can he possibly offer either group? The answer may well determine the DESTINY OF THE DALEKS!

In our 22nd episode we review the 1979 sequel to Genesis of the Daleks with a new Romana, a new Davros and, of course, the Movellans! Oh how much do we love the Movellans?! Honestly 'Movellan love-fest' would probably be a more appropriate title for this episode. What else do we learn from this instalment? That, some quizzes are a bit shit. That Andy doesn't know who directed The Brain of Morbius! I know! And that Tawny Sands may not be acting any more. Who is Tawny Sands? Fear not, you'll find out. We also turn our attention to where and how Reality Bomb's Graeme Burk listens to our podcast, that we should NEVER be invited to anyone's house to play Dungeons and Dragons, and the delightful tale of how Pennant Roberts was once tricked into re-hiring June Hudson. All this and Big Ron too. We love you. Andy & Alex xxx

In 1979 the Doctor Who story Destiny of the Daleks aired. The Daleks are in this one - so it has to be good, right? Well, the Movellans are in this as well. The Movellans........ oh boy.

When an archaeological dig in 1980s England finds a Movellan power pack buried amongst Iron Age artefacts, the Doctor and Romana have no choice but to investigate. And what they discover worries them very much indeed. A Movellan ship is buried under the ground. Soon the robotic enemies of the Daleks are making their way to the surface, but they are not the biggest threat humanity faces. Because on board this ship is the greatest weapon the Movellans have ever devised. A weapon that could stop the Daleks forever... and anything else that gets in their way.

The time has finally arrived, with new Doctor Who gracing our screens and Bill, a new companion, capturing our hearts. Puddles, Movellans and so much more danced across our eyeballs this past Saturday in “The Pilot”, and the Three Who Rule have thoughts and bon mots to share about the return of Who and the stories still to come! But like all Moffat-era Who, there are twists and turns still to come, like the fact that Capaldi says he’s filmed the regeneration before the Christmas episode was lensed. Mystery and intrigue!

Ben and David share their thoughts on the 2016 Christmas special and their mutual appreciation of Nardole's visit to the Byzantium Empire. Plus the two geek out over the Series 10 trailer and the hinted return of the Movellans and then speculate over which old monsters may next be returning to "Doctor Who". Intro: clip from "The Return of Doctor Mysterio". Outro music: "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" composed by Nat Simon and Jimmy Kennedy and covered by "They Might Be Giants" on their 1990 album Flood.

This week we cover story #104, Destiny of the Daleks!  The Doctor and the newly-regenerated Romana find themselves caught between the Daleks and the mysterious Movellans.  Unable to defeat the Movellans, The Daleks seek out their creator, Davros, to help them.  With the Doctor help the Movellans put an end to the Daleks once and for all? QotW: In Destiny of the Daleks, Romana regenerated to look like someone else. If you could do the same, who would you choose?

This title is out of print in region 1 and extremely expensive, but you can rent the DVD from Netflix… for now.

Jason and Paul aren't the only ones returning in this episode of Talking Timelords!  "Destiny of the Daleks" sees the return of the 4th Doctor, the Daleks, and one of Doctor Who's greatest villains, Davros!  They also give you some fun facts on the Doctor's scarf and answer the question on just where those Movellans keep their brains.  Have a guess!

The Doctor and Romana teach the Movellans about Rock-Paper-Scissors.

It's the first audio commentary of the year, so that means once again Tony returns to the fold to join Phil & Paul in getting through Destiny of The Daleks episodes 1 & 2.  This one is real struggle folks!  The lads do their best to keep their spirits up in this shoddy run down Daleks, Stevie Wonder disco wigs and ill fitting Davros masks but try as they might, this one gets the better of them!  Tony tries desparately to inject some humour into proceedings with his facts but these fall flat in the face of this dreadful story! And in the news this week the January releases from Big Finish, news of an actor who would like to return to Doctor Who and one actress who isn't and a return to Omega's Tat Corner with some overpriced glittery tat that wouldn't look out of place on QVC.

In "Destiny of the Daleks," the Daleks seek to resurrect Davros in an attempt to gain a tactical advantage over the Movellans. And in "City of Death," the Time Lords visit contemporary Paris and stumble upon an alien's plan to send the entire planet back through time.
