The Doctor is tricked onto a hidden street where aliens live in peace away from humans. There, a meeting with an old friend brings mystery, and another “friend” brings extreme danger. Rigsy contacts the Doctor and Clara and shows them a number tattoo counting down on his neck. Their investigation leads to a hidden street ...

This week, we're hanging out in a mystical London street full of Sontarans, Judoon and Cybermen, investigating a murder with Johnny Spandrell — only to find, to our horror, that the murder hasn't happened yet. And, of course, that it's time for Clara Oswald to Face the Raven. Notes and links Fridging or Women in Refrigerators is a trope in which a woman is murdered and the emotions of her male parent/lover/friend become more important to the narrative than the death of the woman herself. This article from The Guardian discusses its use in Strangers, an ITV drama in which our very own Devla Kirwan's death evokes trauma in her husband, our very own John Simm. You can find links to the videos shot by Rufus Hound during the shooting of The Woman Who Lived in the shownotes for Flight Through Entirety Episode 272: John Scott Martin in a Zarbi Suit. China Miéville's novel Kraken (2010) also depicts a London with secret hidden streets, these ones full of monsters and cultists. (It also features a villain called the Tattoo, who is literally a crazed sentient tattoo.) Rigsy's offscreen girlfriend Jen, who we hear on the phone but don't see, is played by Naomi Ackie, who goes on to star as Whitney Houston in the 2022 biopic Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody. And here's a story in Entertainment Weekly about the controversy surrounding Letitia Wright's weird tweet about the Covid vaccine. And if you're feeling down, you should cheer yourself up with this 2015 story from The Guardian about Jeremy Clarkson's cancellation. Follow us Nathan is on X as @nathanbottomley, Brendan is @brandybongos, Simon is @simonmoore72, and Johnny is @JohnnySpandrell. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam. You can follow the podcast on X at @FTEpodcast. We're also on Facebook, Mastodon, and Bluesky, and you can check out our website at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on Apple Podcasts, or we'll hack Google Maps and render your entire street completely fictional. And more On 27 November we'll be launching a Doctor Who flashcast called The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire. Like Jodie into Terror before it, The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire will be released a day or two after each new episode of Doctor Who and will contain our ill-considered and half-baked initial reactions to the episode. Keep an eye out on the new podcast website or on our social media accounts for details. Our second newest podcast is Startling Barbara Bain, our Space: 1999 commentary podcast, whose first episode was released just a couple of weeks ago. In that episode, we talked over the show's pilot Breakaway, in which the moon is hurled from its orbit by a terrible nuclear explosion. We're hoping to release Episode 2 next weekend. Maximum Power is continuing its journey through Series C of Blakes 7. This week, the crew of the Liberator run into a strangely disappointing figure from Auron mythology in Dawn of the Gods. And finally, there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, they watched perhaps the worst episode of the entire Star Trek franchise, the Star Trek: Voyager episode Threshold.
This week we're in 1997 with stand up, podcaster and TV regular, the Offaly good Neil Delamere. Neil's a regular on BBC NI's The Blame Game, 5 Live's Fighting Talk and an arena level stand up in Northern Ireland - in fact, he's back at the SSE next February. He also launched a podcast ‘Why Would You Tell Me That?' just this year. In this episode - Neil, Paddy and producer Rigsy discuss how to hide if you're Bono, which church does the best merch and what it might be like if Hugo Duncan voiced a radio station on Grand Theft Audio. But that all pails to the biggest question of them all - who's your favourite Spice Girl?

Excuse our technical difficulties at the start of this podcast.The internal dimensions of Geoff's recording booth exceeded its external restraints and Paul's recording space compressed its inner dimensions beyond the capacity of its external ones!Madness!It seemed only fitting our audio went haywire as we watched back Flatline - the winner of a recent poll we ran - to see if our memories, and yours, of this Twelfth Doctor and Clara adventure still stood up... or fell flat!There's a lot of discussion about Clara and Jenna Coleman this week - blame Geoff for that - and we mean a LOT. We talk about the great visuals in this episode, ponder whether the train station and tracks are metaphorical for Rigsy, put a boxset request in with Big Finish, talk muppets and Angel and, as always, hear thoughts on the episode from other Whovians. Join our Doctor Who conversations on Twitter and Facebook @WHOC2C!
Host Paddy Raff is joined by producer Rigsy to unveil what's in-store with their brand new podcast, The Wonder Year. After this introduction, look out for hour long episodes with a series of very special guests published every Monday morning!
We watch "Face The Raven" (Series 9, Episode 10) where the Doctor and Clara meet back up with London street artist Rigsy to see his new neck tattoo. Whilst said 'appreciation' of bad decision making is occurring, the woman now known as Me (previously known as Ashildr) has set a trap for the Doctor, said trap causes the completely avoidable death of Clara, and the Doctor vows to avenge her death. Wow. What an amazing send off for a companion. Let's hope no future episodes undermine this emotional exit. Right? Oh crap...
Es ist viel los in der Winkelgasse: Nicht nur, dass Sid das Faultier sich ein neues Kleid gekauft hat und unter die Tätowierer gegangen ist, nein, sie schmiedet außerdem finstere Pläne gegen den Doctor. Für diese spannt sie nicht nur Rigsy, einen alten Bekannten des Doctors, sowie Prof. Quirinus Quirrells schwarzes Trans-Gender-Recasting und Poes Lieblingshaustier ein, sondern bringt auch gleich noch Clara um die Ecke, die (mal wieder und auch nicht zum letzten Mal) ihren Abschied gibt. Und mittendrin stehen André und Raphael mit ihrer Meinung zu diesem Mash-up namens “Face the Raven”.

We watch "Flatline" (Series 8, Episode 9) where the Doctor and Clara travel to exotic (?!?) Bristol, UK. Whilst being punished... whoopsies!... whilst seeing the sights in hilly Bristol, the Doctor phones it in, Clara goes all 'Doctor Donna' and the TARDIS becomes the most delightful handbag accessory. We also get introduced to Rigsy, a graffiti artist who is totally, definitely, absolutely not Banksy (wink). Plus meet this week’s big bad: the Boneless. Still not as evil as 'boneless' chicken wings though. Cuz they ain’t wings! Argh! Don’t get me started!Sponsored (?) by https://www.instagram.com/neebsglass/

The return of Rigsy, a more gay script than we remembered, and we made this sweater out of our tears. Face the Raven script: https://downloads.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/DW9-EP10-Face-the-Raven.pdf Blogtor Who interview with Sarah Dollard: https://www.blogtorwho.com/exclusive-sarah-dollard-face-raven/
Welcome to Who Watch: Time and Relative Blackness in Space with Bayana, Robyn, and Connie! Today we’re discussing Episode 9 of Doctor Who Season 8, “Flatline.” In this episode, The Doctor invents the TWODIS, Clara is the Doctor, and Rigsy proves he’s more than just local knowledge.
Ashford and Siskoid discuss Clara's send off by Sarah Dollard. Face the Raven includes Rigsy, Trap Street, the Doctor, and I...no, I mean Me.
We open with reading an email from David about Rachel Talalay's direction and with acknowledging that David Tennant and Billie Piper have returned as the 10th Doctor and Rose. Then we turn our attention to a pair of stories linked by the rather wonderful guest character Rigsy. Allison remembered "Flatline" as just the tiny TARDIS episode, but it's so much weirder and scarier and better than all that. Then we look at "Face The Raven," which keeps seeming like it's going to be whimsical, yet steadfastly refuses to do anything but keep the audience off-kilter. Mostly, we realize these are two of the very best Clara episodes ever, and it forms part of our unplanned Jenna Coleman tribute tour with a lot of the other recent series eight and nine episodes we've discussed. Then join us next week for the start of some yuletide festivities as we look at a pair of Christmas-set, Charles Dickens-centric stories, "The Unquiet Dead" and "A Christmas Carol"!
We take a look at a pair of two-parters that are all about war, but first we consider all we can from the recently released preview clip for the upcoming Christmas special, "Twice Upon A Time." Overall, we really like what we see from Mark Gatiss and David Bradley, and it goes without saying we're going to be good with pretty much anything Peter Capaldi does at this point. Then, to business! The Sontaran two-parter has some good things going for it, but it has maybe the worst, most obnoxious guest character in the entire new series, and it's all so dumbfoundingly superficial in its ideas about war. That's not a problem the Zygon two-parter has, which maybe isn't quite as clever as it seems to think it is but does do a bunch of legitimately incredible things... including that speech. Yes, Alasdair has thoughts on that speech. And then join us next week for a look at Clara and Rigsy in "Flatline" and "Face The Raven"!

If we've learned one thing in literature about Ravens, is that they represent death, and this holds true for Doctor Who's Latest episode: Face the Raven. Join David and Jeremy as they discuss Ravens, Tattoos, and strange little alleyways that may harken themselves to Harry Potter more than Doctor who. Rigsy, our friend from Flatline, joins The Doctor and Clara as they face off against an unknown foe and take wild risks that certainly don't pay off.Read More...

An old friend, Rigsy aka “Local Knowledge” (Jovian Wade) calls on the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and companion Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman) for some help, when an animated tattoo counting down appears on the back of his neck. The alien ink leads the trio to a concealed refugee locale for extra terrestrials hiding on Earth, where they meet an old friend. But in the process, the situation is far more dire, and will call on one of our heroes to Face The Raven… During TARDISblend 95, we are joined by guest Andy Sorcini of The Drill Down, and we discuss a tragic conclusion for one of our Doctor Who characters, and the beginning of a mysterious journey for the Doctor.

00:00 The Who Wars Podcast Theme 00:30 Introduction to the show by Rob @WhoWars before he, Lex @Lexerness and Kate @Kamiduu give some initial thoughts now that they've seen the second half of Series 8 of Doctor Who. Then they tackle each of the six episodes individually. 04:01 Kill the Moon - The Doctor takes Clara and Courtney on a trip, where they arrive in 2049 on a Space Shuttle to the Moon with one hundred nuclear bombs. Noting the Moon's higher gravity and meeting Captain Lundvik, the Doctor questions her, where he's told that her team are on a suicide mission to blow up the Moon. A sudden mass high tide had threatened humanity's existence, the cause being the Moon. Their mission was the only way to save the planet. Colonists are found entombed in spider webs, and the Doctor finds through the readings that had previously been taken, noting an increase in the Moon's mass - the cause of the sudden tidal shift. A spider-like being attacks the group, and the Doctor realizes that they are only germs. The Doctor determines that the Moon is an egg, with the creature inside ready to hatch. The Doctor abandons them, forcing Lundvik and Clara to decide on their own. They call upon Earth to make the decision, receiving an unanimous vote to save the Earth. Clara intervenes and stops the bombs' countdown, and the Doctor rescues them from the Moon. From Earth, they watch the creature hatch and the shell disintegrate, with the creature laying a new egg as a new Moon. Clara angrily confronts the Doctor, claiming that it was his decision to make too, since Earth is important in his life as well. She leaves the TARDIS and the Doctor, to be comforted by Danny. 13:14 Mummy on the Orient Express - Clara rejoins the Doctor for one last outing before she leaves the TARDIS and the Doctor for good. They arrive on a train named the Orient Express which travels through space, a distant future remake of the famous train. The Doctor soon discovers that an elderly woman has recently been murdered by a creature only she could see – she described it as an Egyptian 'Mummy'. The Doctor insists that she died of old age, but when a member of the kitchen staff dies in the same way, the Doctor realizes that the 'Mummy' (known as the Foretold) is invisible to all but the one that it is about to kill. Once it is seen, it kills its victim in exactly sixty-six seconds. The train's computer program, 'Gus', reveals to the Doctor that he has tasked him to capture the Foretold or face the death of innocents. The Doctor takes the consciousness of the Foretold's next victim to see it, and discovers that it is a dead soldier powered by future technology with unfinished business. The Doctor discharges the soldier by surrendering, and the train's occupants are saved. Gus declares that the survival of the train's occupants is not required, and begins removing the train's air supply. The Doctor uses the future technology from the Foretold to teleport the train's occupants to safety, just before the train explodes. Later, Clara calls Danny and decides she is not ready to leave the Doctor. 23:34 Flatline - Arriving in Bristol, the Doctor and Clara find the TARDIS has shrunk on the outside. Clara gets out to investigate the area, while the Doctor stays in the TARDIS until it has shrunk down to a handheld size, theorizing that something was leeching its external dimensions. Clara encounters a young graffiti artist named Rigsy, and communicating through an earpiece, the Doctor tells Clara that the thing they are facing is an alien from a universe that's solely two-dimensional. The creatures have achieved the ability to make 3D objects 2D, and Clara, Rigsy, and community service people attempt to run from the creatures. The Doctor is soon able to create a device that can change the dimensions of objects similarly to the creatures. However, the TARDIS cannot function with a lack of dimensions, and the Doctor powers it down into a 'siege' mode. The creatures have also learned to make themselves 3-dimensional, and assume demented guises of the people they have absorbed into two-dimensions. With the help of Rigsy, Clara is able to trick the creatures into powering the TARDIS once more and restoring it to regular size. The Doctor uses its power to send the creatures back into their dimension. Clara and the Doctor part ways with Rigsy, and after she asks if she was a good doctor, he tells her that she was an exceptional doctor in his place but goodness had nothing to do with it. 30:45 In the Forest of the Night - Maebh, a young girl, is running through a forest when she comes across the TARDIS. She knocks and is answered by the Doctor, who realizes that a forest has grown over London. Meanwhile in London Museum, Clara and Danny lead a group of kids out into the new forest after a museum sleepover. Clara immediately calls the Doctor, who reveals he is already aware of the forest and tells Clara to meet him in Trafalgar Square. Upon arrival they attempt to figure out the truth behind the forest, and the Doctor realizes Maebh is missing, and he and Clara set out to find her. Following a trail she has left, they find her, only to be cornered by and rescued from wolves and a tiger which have escaped the zoo. The Doctor realizes Maebh is behind what's going on, and uses the sonic to get the trees to speak through her. They reveal an extinction-level solar flare is heading towards Earth. Heading back to the TARDIS, the Doctor offers an escape route. Clara says she would never leave Danny, Danny would never leave the kids, and the kids would miss their parents. The Doctor leaves, before realizing the trees have grown to protect Earth like a giant airbag and the solar flare wouldn't kill anyone. He heads back to Earth, where he recruits the kids to send a message to the world to not destroy the trees. The solar flare passes by harmlessly and the excess trees disappear, their job done. 41:52 Dark Water - While Clara attempts to gain the courage to tell Danny about her life with Doctor, Danny is hit by a car and is killed. Clara is comforted by her family, until she calls the Doctor. She attempts to blackmail the Doctor into saving Danny by throwing the TARDIS keys into a volcano one by one. The Doctor removes her from the dream state he placed on her and uses her memories for the TARDIS to find Danny. They are brought to a facility named 3W, in which skeletons are contained in a blue liquid. Elsewhere, Danny is being consoled by Seb for his death. The Doctor opens an information book, read by a hiding Missy, who claims that she is a droid. Meeting Doctor Chang, he explains that the dead are conscious and also shows them "dark water", a substance which can only display organic material. Meanwhile, Missy awakens the skeletons and the tanks begin to drain. Clara talks with Danny, and she tries to find proof of his identity, but Danny refuses to let her be with him in death, so Clara ends the call. The Doctor and Chang exit into the hallway to see the tanks drain, revealing the skeletons are actually Cybermen. The Doctor and Missy exit and find themselves on the steps of St Paul's cathedral. The Cybermen begin to march out of the cathedral, and Missy tells him that his efforts to evacuate are pointless, and that Missy is short for Mistress, revealing that she is the Master. 52:12 Death in Heaven - As part of Missy's plans, Cybermen detonate themselves around London, releasing "Cyber pollen" that reincarnates and transforms the dead into Cybermen. Danny is one of these, and rescues Clara from 3W. UNIT bring the Doctor and Missy aboard a plane, where the Doctor is given control of Earth's armies as "President of the Earth". With the help of the Cybermen, Missy overpowers UNIT and blows up the plane. The Doctor survives by calling the TARDIS to him and reunites with Clara in a cemetery, where Clara has discovered the Cyberman who saved her is Danny. Danny reveals that a forecoming rainfall will convert all living people to Cybermen as well. Missy arrives and gifts the Doctor with control of all the Cybermen so he can conquer the universe. The Doctor refuses and gives control to Danny, who leads other Cybermen into exploding and stopping the rainfall. Missy is disintegrated by a final Cyberman, a reanimated Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart. In the aftermath, Clara and the Doctor bid farewell with lies to each other: Clara tells the Doctor that Danny has reunited with her when he used his only escape attempt to return a child he killed to life, and the Doctor tells Clara he has found Gallifrey with coordinates Missy gave him when they led to nowhere. 1:14:20 Summary; Rob @WhoWars Lex @Lexerness and Kate @Kamiduu give their thoughts on Series 8 of Doctor Who now that it has screened in its entirety. 1:21:28 The Who Wars Podcast Credits (including how to get in touch with the show) 1:22:13 Bloopers and studio chatter.

"Why Doctor Oswald, you are hilarious!" So Clara plays the Doctor, Rigsy plays her companion and the Doctor plays Thing from The Addams Family in the latest series 8 episode, Flatline. The TARDIS has shrunk and swallowed the Doctor, while rugs are swallowing people and Danny may not be swallowing Clara's tall tales. Would you sacrifice yourself for the price of a hairband? Would you take a personal call while trying to combat an alien attack in a swinging chair? And can you pull off a TARDIS-backed hermit crab cosplay? Jim and Martin ponder these three-dimensional problems through the single medium of sound. Join them.
