Peter Capaldi – aka Malcolm Tucker, Dr Who, the universal screen delight and an Oscar-winning film director – was the singer in the punk band the Dreamboys in the late ‘70s who put out a single when he was at the art school in Glasgow. And then became an actor. And then - in the grand tradition of actors who've made albums, Hugh Laurie, Scarlett Johansson, Jeff Bridges and Keanu Reeves among them – released St Christopher in 2021. He's just recorded a second, Sweet Illusions, and talks to us in this extremely funny and entertaining pod about … … how his sole motivation was “a burning desire to be on the telly”. … the difference between fronting bands and being in plays. … how he grievously stitched up support band the Cocteau Twins at a gig in Grangemouth. … a teenage love of Slade - “a bit terrifying but still a bit safe”. … first-hand evidence of the connection between Blakey from On the Buses, Adolph Hitler and Beatles. … “you have to write a hundred songs before you can write a good one”. … arriving at art school in '76 a Neil Young fan and his overnight transformation – “peroxide hair, PVC trousers and bright red crepe sole shoes”. … seeing Simple Minds at the Mars Bar in Glasgow, Jim Kerr with his Shakespearian haircut, “strange, powerful, imaginative, post-glam”. … forming the Dreamboys and “trying to be big, clever and Kafka-esque”. … the stigma of being virtually the only band in Glasgow not to get a John Peel session. … writing the “bizarro pulp” lyrics for the Dreamboys – “we couldn't decide if we were the Cramps or Talking Heads”. … what's required, “apart from a terrible Scouse accent”, in playing John Lennon onstage and George Harrison onscreen. … auditioning (comedian, actor, TV host) Craig Ferguson as the band's drummer. … how Bill Forsyth launched his acting career: “one minute you're supporting Altered Images, the next in a movie with Burt Lancaster”. … forming a duo with Keanu Reeves when filming Dangerous Liaisons in Paris – powdered wigs in the daytime, guitar/bass punk-thrash at night. .. the romantic Edward Hopper charm of Glasgow in the ‘70s - proto-goths, street lights, rain. … how Dr Robert of the Blow Monkeys and four months filming The Suicide Squad in Atlanta spurred him into writing songs. … the greatest record of all time.

Time Ram shakes the magic 8-ball and finds a Pyramid at the End of the World, but starring Christopher Eccleston instead of Peter Capaldi. But how can this be, when Extremis took place during the Jon Pertwee era? Frankly, we don't know, maybe all will become clear. Meanwhile, there's Rose on steroids, fun marines and secretary general Wigner to enjoy! Plus, we really must have a chat about lab safety protocols.

Greg Alba & John Humphrey return to the TARDIS to react to Doctor Who Season 2 Episode 3, where the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) arrive on a mining colony on Planet 6767, encountering the only survivor Aliss Fenly (Rose Ayling-Ellis) and facing off against a deadly, radiation-soaked entity linked to the classic "Midnight" episode.

Tread Perilously concludes its month of celebrating the new series Doctor Who with "Listen." As Clara goes on a somewhat uncomfortable date, The Doctor realizes he is talking to himself and supposes there might be a more sinister reason for it. Soon, he picks up Clara for a trip to the past, the future, and an impossible era to learn the truth behind the perfect hider and the monster under your bed. All the while, Clara's date, Danny Pink, seems to be at the center of the investigation. But is that to do with Clara? And who is the boy Clara finds in a barn somewhere far from England? Justin and Erik discuss Steven Moffat as a writer and his seeming resistance to platonic friendships. Actor Samuel Anderson gets praise for his performance in this episode ... but not as Danny Pink. "Listen" is unavoidably compared to "Blink," which leads to some surprising analysis of both. Does modern Doctor Who work best when Moffat and Russell T. Davies are involved at the same time? Erik once again suggests Matt Smith left earlier than originally planned. Justin praises a key sequence in the episode. Peter Capaldi's performance as The Doctor is reviewed anew and Justin identifies the only true romantic Doctor/companion pairing of the Classic series.

This episode features epic set design, shocking character revelations, intense emotional beats, and sci-fi twists that dive deep into Ruby's mystery and the hidden truth of the LUX organization. We break down how this story connects to previous Who lore, the darker tone under Russell T Davies' writing, and theories for the future of the season. Doctor Who has been played by iconic actors including William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann, Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi, Jodie Whittaker, and Ncuti Gatwa.

We're back in the realm of the Twelfth Doctor today, as we join him in print. Mike Tucker is back to talk about his second novel featuring Peter Capaldi's incarnation, Diamond Dogs, which takes the Doctor and Bill into the future. We also feature two original readings from the book by Steevie Day, with no official release from BBC Audiobooks - to date.
Auch wenn Holger, Michael und Rüdiger sich zum Ende der heutigen Episode noch das Für und Wider von Apples neuer Prestige-Serie "Your Friends and Neighbors" (53:14) mit Jon Hamm und Amanda Peet abwägen, steht dieser Podcast ganz im Zeichen der siebten Staffel von "Black Mirror" (3:30). Die Netflix-Anthologie von Charlie Brooker, die mit jeder Staffel Technologie-kritische Kurzgeschichten erzählt, hängt typischerweise sehr vom individuellen Geschmack ab. Die einen mögen die richtig bösen Geschichten, die anderen eher die hoffnungsvollen, menschlichen Episoden. Also haben wir wieder einmal unsere Geschmäcker zusammengeworfen und aus unseren drei indivuellen Rankings eine Serienweise-Empfehlungsliste zusammengestellt. Wir sprechen über "Gewöhnliche Leute" (10:45) mit Rashida Jones und Chris O'Dowd, "Bête Noire" (18:14) über eine Food-Designerin, die eine Klassenkameradin wiedertrifft, das mit sehr vielen "Bandersnatch"-Überschneidungen aufwartende "Spielzeug" (23:37) mit Peter Capaldi, die heißersehnte Fortsetzung "USS Callister: Willkommen bei Infinity" (30:04), die Film-Hommage "Hotel Reverie"(39:09) mit Issa Rae und Emma Corin sowie unseren Staffel-Favoriten "Eulogy" (46:32), der Paul Giamatti auf eine Reise durch seine Erinnerungen führt. Cold-Open-Frage: "Welches Serientier sollten Forscher nach dem Schattenwolf wieder zum Leben erwecken?"
Peter Capaldi talks about his latest album – Sweet Illusions – a nod to the thriving 80s music scene in Glasgow where Peter made his musical debut fronting The Dreamboys. Through the Shortbread Tin is a new National Theatre of Scotland production about the supposed third century Scottish bard Ossian. Its writer – poet Martin O'Connor – and director Lu Kemp, share their exploration of one of the greatest literary hoaxes of all timeShould Brian Friel be known as short story writer, as much as a playwright? A decade after his death, a new edition of his stories has been published, many of which would inspire his plays such as Faith Healer, Dancing at Lughnasa and his breakthrough Philadelphia, Here I Come! Discussing the often overlooked work of the "Irish Chekhov" is a fellow master of the short story Louise Kennedy, and Dr Kelly Matthews, author of Brian Friel: Beginnings.

After a long career as an international fashion model, California born Julienne's acting career began when she landed her first role playing the iconic character of Mandy Curran in Stanley Kubrick's final film, EYES WIDE SHUT alongside Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. As well as playing several other substantial roles in films including HOUSE OF 9 with Dennis Hopper and Peter Capaldi, and COME TOGETHER with James Darcy and Lucy Punch, Julienne also appeared in leading and guest star roles on British TV, including being a series regular in the BBC comedy series TOO MUCH SUN with Mark Addy, Alex Jennings and Lee Majors.

Fear Frequency is out now on Amazon, You Tube and Google Play. Julienne, not content with just acting and film, is also an artist in other fields: a singer/songwriter/coproducer with her bands Sophisticated Savage and The Midnight Candy, a social/political writer/commentator (Heat Street, Fox News), and she loves painting. Now a professional artist, she accepts commissions and has sold her work to several art collectors in NYC and beyond.
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.

Peter Capaldi is back - not as the Doctor, but for the release of his second album, Sweet Illusions. He's been doing some publicity for the album, and the Power of 3 has been granted permission to use 15 minutes of an interview he gave to Paul Trainer of GlasgowWorld, about the release. Paul - a friend of our Kenny's for some 30 years - joins us for a conversation about the interview, meeting Peter and generally fanboying it up over the Twelfth Doctor actor.

Time Ram has to decide whether to die stupid or stand down, as we review 'The Zygon Invasion/Inversion' which has changed Scotsmen from Peter Capaldi to Sylvester McCoy. In the process, we discover Robert Lindsay, garbled plot points and the Osgood conundrum. Will the quantel paint box cope? Will something very nasty happen to Uxbridge? And how many types of Zygon are there anyway?
Matt and Billy revisit the Doctor Who Series 9 opener, 'The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar', starring Peter Capaldi, Jenna Coleman and Michele Gomez.

We're journeying from the jungles of Darkest Peru to Jolly Ol' London Town in this adaptation of the beloved children's stories by Michael Bond. The Bond is strong with Q actor Ben Whishaw who voices the precocious titular bear. The cast is stacked with talent, including Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi, and Nicole Kidman in key roles, with Michael Gambon and Imelda Stauton lending their voice talents. The director is Paul King (he of The Mighty Boosh), here helming the picture to critical and commercial success, to the tune of two BAFTA nominations and over $300 million at the box office. But are our hosts as enamored with the end result, or did we find it… unbearable? Exit the intro, pursued by a bear: Paddington Bear. Oh, bother.

Time Ram goes all mystery and suspense as we turn our focus to Peter Capaldi's 'Death to the Daleks'. Probably. Music cues! Von Daniken! Voices like angels! Roots! Helen Mirren and an unlikely late appearence by Paul Darrow! It's all going on. HOO-HAR!
The latest leg of our flight through entirety comes to a gentle landing this week, but before we all head off to collect our luggage, all seven of us take the opportunity to say goodbye to Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat in one last retrospective. Notes and links Thank you to those of you who sent us questions: Kate Orman, Doctor What and General Witchfinders. In our discussion of Sleep No More, Brendan reaches for the name of Bethany Black's love interest in the episode, but goes slightly astray. The name he's after is Chopra, played by the astoundingly beautiful Neet Mohan. In Episode 2 of Flight Through Entirety, Richard famously compares Hartnell's performance style to Marlene Dietrich's. This week, he bookends that beautifully with a comparison of Peter Capaldi's style to Maggie Smith's, particularly her Oscar-winning performance in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. Richard alludes to this story from 2015, in which a team consisting of Peter Capaldi, Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss came third in a Doctor Who pub trivia competition at a Doctor Who convention in Sydney.

Now that Flight Through Entirety is taking a break, you should all go and subscribe to 500 Year Diary, our latest new Doctor Who podcast, in which we go back through the history of the show and examine new themes and ideas. Its first season came out early in 2024, under the title New Beginnings. Check it out. It will be back for a second season, The Second Coming, early in 2025. The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire recently released our hot take on Ncuti Gatwa's second Christmas Special (and Steven Moffat's ninth), Joy to the World. And we'll be back again in 2025 to talk about Season 2. Last week, The Three-Handed Game released their first Christmas Special, discussing the 1966 Avengers episode Too Many Christmas Trees, in which Steed's weird Christmas nightmares start to become reality. The boys will be back in 2025 for the third episode in their triptych The Pop Explosion. Maximum Power is back at last with its long-awaited coverage of the 1981 season of Blakes 7. Last weekend we released our discussion on the season's controversial second episode — Power. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we watched a notoriously silly early episode of Deep Space Nine, the widely reviled but never forgotten Move Along Home. Thank you very much for listening: we'll see you again in a few years. And on all of our other podcasts, of course.
This Christmas, we travel from a snowy wasteland in the recent past, to an alien battlefield on a distant planet, to a historical battlefield that has faded from human memory — only to discover that the real battlefield was the friends we made along the way. Or something. Time to say goodbye to Peter Capaldi in Twice upon a Time. Notes and links For the kids: Morecambe and Wise were an incredibly successful and famous British comedy duo throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s, and their Christmas specials were insanely popular — running from 1969 to 1977 on the BBC, and then on ITV from 1978 to 1983. Their 1977 show was watched by 28 million people in the UK. Inevitably, Richard mentions some antecedents to this story. A Christmas Carol (1843), in which Charles Dickens calls out his era's brutal social inequalities and essentially creates Christmas as we know it. All Quiet on the Western Front (1928), a vivid story of some young German soldiers fighting in France during the Great War. And, closer to home, A B Facey's A Fortunate Life (1981), the autobiography of a Australian man who experienced extraordinary suffering and loss — growing up in Western Australia, surviving the Gallipoli campaign, losing his son in World War II — before the publication of the book when he was 87 years old. (“I have lived a very good life, it has been very rich and full. I have been very fortunate and I am thrilled by it when I look back.”) If you want to know what Susan was up to instead of appearing in this episode, the adventures of the War Susan now encompass three Big Finish box sets, one of which is due for release some time next year. Simon identifies a nod in Murray's soundtrack to Arvo Pärt's Spiegel im Spiegel (1978). You can hear it performed here.

Maximum Power is back at last with its long-awaited coverage of the 1981 series of Blakes 7, starting with the season première Rescue. We'll be back again on this Sunday to talk about the second episode, Power. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we celebrated Christmas by catching up with friend-of-the-podcast Frazer Gregory to watch what might be the best of all the Star Trek films, Star Trek: First Contact.

We've spent the last twelve weeks enjoying some unexpected extra time with Peter Capaldi and friends, and so it's finally time to kick back and chat about what we've loved, what we've learned, and (inevitably) who we'd snog. It's the Series 10 Retrospective. Notes and links Thank you to the people who contributed their questions: Luke Hobbs, Si Hart and David Kitchen. And remember that we have a shiny new-ish Bluesky account, which is the best way to follow us online these days. And for the very last time, probably, we reference Friend from the Future, a promotional short designed to introduce Bill Potts, first broadcast during Match of the Day on 23 April 2016, nearly a year before this season began. You can see the entire short here.

There's so much more to the actor Peter Capaldi than his brilliant, edgy and original Twelfth Doctor in Doctor Who…his career stretches far beyond the Tardis. He won a BAFTA, for playing the ferocious, foul-mouthed spin doctor Malcolm Tucker in The Thick of It, another BAFTA for the film spin off ‘In the Loop', and whilst we're on awards…He's also won an Oscar! A punk in his younger days…he's now writing and recording his own rock music…his debut solo album was released in 2021…so we're fascinated to hear what he's chosen as his Inheritance Tracks. Inherited: That's Life by Frank Sinatra Passed on: Waterloo Sunset by The KinksProducers: Ben Mitchell and Anna Bailey
Phil Wang, who says he wouldn't be a comedian if he wasn't of mixed heritage, Malaysian and British, his latest Netflix special opens on the subject of reheating rice and how in the west we're afraid to do that…so what does his dual heritage allow him to do A question we could also put to Chitra Soundar, the award-winning children's writer, who grew up in India, and whose books have inspired the new BBC animated sitcom Nikhil & Jay which is about two Indian/British dual heritage brothers. Nigel McCrery, the man who created the hit TV series Silent Witness and who's written over a dozen novels, reveals the details about his involvement in the DNA identification of the Russian Royal family. All that, plus we have the Inheritance Tracks of the former Time Lord and master of spin Peter Capaldi.Presenters: Nikki Bedi and Nihal Arthanayake Producer: Ben Mitchell

Kate Summerscale's bestselling narrative nonfiction The Suspicions of Mr Whicher was made into big telly, starring Peter Capaldi and unraveling a murder that took place in the 1860s. Her latest book is much more recent history, however, and in The Peepshow: The Murders at 10 Rillington Place, she revisits the crimes of John Reginald Halliday Christie, one of Britain's most notorious serial killers, putting flesh on the bones of his female victims and looking at the role played by the sensationalist media of the time. She chats to Mick about all of the above, what Christie's crimes said about Britain at the time, how much – if at all – anything's changed, and why true crime is still such popular entertainment. The Peepshow: The Murders at Rillington Place is published by Bloomsbury and out now. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Devil's Hour is back for a second season!Dave was joined by Peter Capaldi and Jessica Raine to chat about The Devil's Hour Season 2.
This week's guest is everyone's favourite foul-mouthed politico-cum-Time Lord. That's right, Peter Capaldi is on the show to tell Simon all about Season 2 of his time-bending, psychological thriller show ‘The Devil's Hour'. Mark reviews ‘Transformers One', an animated sci-fi action film based on the Hasbro toy line, which explores the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once friends bonded like brothers who changed the fate of Cyberton forever; ‘Salem's Lot', the latest adaptation of Stephen King's classic supernatural horror novel, which sees an author return to his childhood home in search for some inspiration for his next book, only to discover that people are mysteriously turning into blood-sucking vampires; and ‘Timestalker', a historical sci-fi romantic comedy in which a hapless woman falls for the wrong guy, dies a grim death and is reincarnated a century later. As she experiences romantic misfortune through different eras of history, she seeks to avoid repeat mistakes and finally break the cycle. What will be Mark's film of the week? Listen and see!

We're back for the first episode of Peter Capaldi's final year — a simple, well-told tale of Girl Meets Girl, Girl Becomes Puddle, Girl Loses Girl and, finally, Girl Goes off with Her Tutor on a Series of Adventures in Time and Space. Welcome aboard, Bill Potts. It's The Pilot. Notes and links Friend from the Future was a promotional short designed to introduce Bill Potts first broadcast during Match of the Day on 23 April 2016, nearly a year before this episode aired. You can see the entire short here. Peter mentions the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Skin of Evil as another TV episode containing a high-concept puddle. It's famously not very good, as Joe and Nathan discovered in this episode of Untitled Star Trek Project. You'll be relieved and probably unsurprised to learn that Nathan is wrong: John Peel doesn't claim that Genesis of the Daleks took place in 1831. However, TARDIS Wikia dates it as set in the 15th or 16th centuries, probably because in The Daleks, one of the Daleks claims that there were two races on Skaro 500 years ago. But the whole idea is absolutely enervating, don't you think? The squishy thing Todd mentions as a possible companion for the Doctor is, of course, Mr Huffle from The Return of Doctor Mysterio. The Doctor does apparently take it with him at the end of the story. And Pearl Mackie married her wife Kam Chhokar on 4 May this year. Here's a wedding photo from Tumblr. Douglas is Cancelled is Steven Moffat's most recent TV show — a four-part miniseries starring Hugh Bonneville, Karen Gillan and Alex Kingston, about a middle-aged male TV personality who is overheard making a sexist joke at a friend's wedding. Worth a look. Follow us Nathan is on Bluesky at @nathanbottomley.bsky.social and James is at @ohjamessellwood.bsky.social; Todd is on X as @toddbeilby.

Last week, they took a trip with Kirk, Spock and McCoy to the Planet of Space Ancient Rome in Bread and Circuses.
Send us a textMark is joined by Film Stories' Mark Harrison to discuss the history of censorship and Doctor Who. From the Australian censor clips of the 1960s to the BBFC's rulings on the Ncuti Gatwa era, the two Marks unpick whether regulatory oversight and "censorship" have been good for Doctor Who.But don't worry, there are plenty of laughs along the way, including Ofcom's ruling on "insufficient underwear", why the Sacha Dhawan Master had a particularly awful Christmas Day, and which Ncuti Gatwa episode is officially more grisly than Attack of the Cyberman.You can read Mark D's WhoCulture piece on censorship here.You can listen to the BBFC's Doctor Who podcast here.Support the showFollow us on TwitterLike us on FacebookBuy us a pint
This episode originally aired on May 16, 2023, under the title “Doctor Who is Autistic.”“‘But I hope that in 15 years time, in 1988, you will publish another special to celebrate 25 years of wandering in time with The Doctor, (signed) Peter Capaldi, age 15.'” “Oh, my God!”“In 1974, at the age of three, David John McDonald tells his parents that he wants to be an actor so that he can be Doctor Who…He later became a member of the Actors Union. Unfortunately, there was already a David McDonald in there. So, because he was a fan of the Pet Shop Boys, he took Neil Tennant's name and became David Tennant.”“One of the common things for the autistic people—we don't do hierarchy. If you're an Autistic kid, you treat the teachers, you treat the principal, you treat a president the same as you treat anybody else, because we're very egalitarian in that regard.”“Matt Smith, a very fascinating guy, very naturally somewhat clumsy, tended to break a lot of props, ruin a lot of costumes—very much considered the ADHD Doctor.”“What Peter Capaldi and the Doctor Who franchise in general bring is, I think, an Autistic culture definition of kindness, which is a deep, abiding, justice-fueled kindness—not about friendliness or cheeriness.”“We do love a little arcane trivia. I think that's part of what makes the Doctor Who world partly part of our autistic culture is there is more arcane trivia than you can shake a stick at.”“When they made this particular hero, they didn't give him a gun, they gave him a screwdriver to fix things. They didn't give him a tank or a warship or a X-Wing Fighter, they gave him a phone box from which you can call for help. And they didn't give him a superpower, or pointy ears, or Heat Ray, they gave him an extra heart. They gave him two hearts and that is an extraordinary thing. There will never come a time when we don't need a hero like the Doctor.”Who's your favorite Doctor and why? Share it in the comments!Fan Favorite Game, design #12 (get yours here)Play the game!
