Charles Skaggs and Jesse Jackson discuss "Frontier in Space", the third serial from Doctor Who Season 10 in 1973, featuring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, Katy Manning as Jo Grant, and the final appearance of Roger Delgado as the First Master!

The Dæmons is the final story in the eighth season of Doctor Who, with Jon Pertwee playing the eponymous hero (see episode 48 covering The House That Dripped Blood for some fantastic Pertrivia). It aired over five weeks on BBC1 from 22 May to 19 June 1971. In The Dæmons, the Master, played by Roger Delgado, awakens the ancient horned alien Azal, hoping to gain his immense power. Delgado, a close friend of Pertwee, worked extensively on stage, TV, film, and radio. His work included the BBC's Quatermass II, Battle of the River Plate, Hammer's The Mummy's Shroud, and English dubbing for The Horror Express (see episode 7). He often played villains in British action-adventure series like Danger Man, The Saint, The Champions, and Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased). Tragically, Delgado died in a car accident in Turkey while filming a Franco-German mini-series. He was only 55 years old. The Dæmons began as an audition scene for Jo Grant, played by Katy Manning, and was later reworked into episode four. Manning attended Miss Dixon and Miss Wolfe's School for Girls, becoming close friends with Liza Minnelli. She socialized with stars like James Mason, Dirk Bogarde, and had tea with Noël Coward at The Savoy. As a teenager, she modeled for Biba and dated Jimi Hendrix, Richard Eyre, David Troughton, Derek Fowlds, Stewart Bevan, and Peter Bardens, Rod Stewart's keyboard player. Manning had a close bond with Pertwee, who would pick her up daily for filming, either in his car or on his motorbike, where she would ride pillion. They even raced with Dick Emery and Sir Ralph Richardson to see who could reach the BBC studios first. After three years on Doctor Who, Manning left to pursue other acting work. Pertwee was saddened by her departure, citing her exit and Delgado's death as two major reasons for leaving the show a year later. Producer Barry Letts wanted to write a story about black magic to tap into the zeitgeist of the Age of Aquarius and frighten young viewers. However, script editor Terrance Dicks had concerns it might be seen as Satanist. The story was revised to focus on a scientific threat with occult themes. Originally, the Master was to worship the demon in a church, but to avoid offending religious viewers, the scenes were moved to a crypt, later referred to as a cavern (though the set remained crypt-like). Letts co-wrote the script with playwright Robert Sloman under the pseudonym Guy Leopold, as the BBC frowned on production staff writing for their own shows. Much of the serial was filmed on location in Aldbourne, Wiltshire, with two weeks allocated for filming—more than double the usual time—leading to more outdoor scenes. The cast included comedy actress Damaris Hayman, who starred as Miss Hawthorne. Hayman had an interest in the supernatural and served as an unofficial adviser on the production. Her friend, a practicing witch, praised the accuracy of the scripts. Future Sooty puppeteer Matthew Corbett had a brief role in the final episode as a hooded coven member who objects to Jo's sacrifice. Corbett, whose great-uncle was Harry Ramsden of fish-and-chip fame, had to change his name when joining the actors' union Equity, as there was already a Peter Corbett registered.Studio taping for The Dæmons was completed on 16 May 1971, just weeks before the final episode aired. This episode included footage of a model church being blown up, which was so realistic that it prompted viewer complaints. If the clip of the Brigadier's helicopter crashing into the heat shield looks familiar, it was borrowed from the James Bond film From Russia with Love.

It wasn't long after the untimely death of Roger Delgado, that his most enduring creation was being resurrected - and soon after that he had a new full-time replacement. But do these subsequent iterations of the Master fulfil the brief that was laid down back in 1971? Presented by J.R. Southall, with Jon Arnold, Mark Donaldson and Iain Martin

Oh, it's lovely rediscovering a story one has always thought was OK but nothing special. It's Doctor who, of course it's special! And it's got Roger Delgado watching The Clangers, Jon Pertwee eating a sandwich during a swordfight, some cracking cliffhangers, and THAT shot of the Sea Devils emerging from the waves. But will some or any of these make it into the list of the story's best bits according to host Toby Hadoke and guest Steve Hatcher. Well, there's only one way to find out - dive in!

If you tuned into Doctor Who in the early '70s, chances are you saw Jon Pertwee in a colorful tuxedo arguing with the Brigadier and UNIT on the best way to take down some inhuman menace whose strings are being pulled by Roger Delgado's Master. You get that in spades in The Mind of Evil, which makes it a 100% proof 1970s Who adventure, though at times the bloated story feels like they decided to coast almost entirely on the formula, without much attention given to whether any of the multiplying plot threads made sense on their own. Pay no mind — because you wouldn't want to get stuck with the bill for this one anyway. Play Pull To Open Bingo! Rate and review Pull To Open on Apple Podcasts! Join the conversation on Spotify!

This has it all - a bit of comedy, a lot of character, and Roger Delgado looking pretty spiffing as a naval officer. Add to that some comedy wiring, an epic sword fight and the famous rebranding of the Silurians as the equally inaccurate Eocenes and there's a lot to talk about ... even before we get to Jabba the Hutt.

In many ways, it's all been building to this. The 12th series of On the Time Lash opens with Mark finally coming face to fist with Eric Saward and Ben getting to call people SPIES.In a packed show, Ben and Mark discuss Ben's stag, the DWAS Capitol event, Spyfall, and Frontier in Space. Not to mention bollock monsters, holding a pillow over an elderly screenwriter, and they struggle to remember what the aliens from Spyfall are actually called.ALSO: An appreciation of Sacha Dhawan and Roger Delgado's Masters, comparing Malcolm Hulke and Gene Roddenberry's respective visions of the future, and some clunky references to the current geopolitical situation.Support the show

First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on February 27th 2022 In last week's VISION ON SOUND, WARREN CUMMINGS joined me to talk about NIGEL KNEALE'S classic 1950s creation QUATERMASS II starring JOHN ROBINSON in a beautifully crafted and ambitiously epic tale of paranoia, conspiracy, human self-deception, and an alien invasion by stealth and guile played out in front of the backdrop of a post-war Britain still held in the grip of rationing, conformity, and cold-war fears. By the time our episode ended, we'd only got up to the point in the story just before the end of episode four when ROGER DELGADO playing journalist HUGH CONRAD is desperately trying to tell the world about the alien invasion taking place at the industrial plant at Winnerton Flats which had previously only been thought to be creating synthetic food through some mysterious new process. Once we'd realised that we'd overshot our allotted running time talking about that, I invited WARREN to give me his impressions of another classic collaboration between the BBC, Rudolph Cartier and Nigel Kneale first broadcast just under a year earlier in DECEMBER 1954, their twice-performed live adaptation of George Orwell's novel “NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR” the recording of at least one version of which does survive, which was quite difficult for modern viewers to track down, but is about to get a brand new release from the BFI. NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR stars one of WARREN's favourite actors, PETER CUSHING, alongside YVONNE MITCHELL, DONALD PLEASANCE, LEONARD SACHS and another actor associated with a later QUATERMASS serial, ANDRE MORELL, alongside a couple of prolific actors and familiar television faces who would also both appear in QUATERMASS II, WILFRED BRAMBELL and HILDA FENEMORE, because, in the end all things are connected. 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.
On this episode we are reviewing The Sea Devils starring Jon Pertwee, Katy Manning and Roger Delgado. "The Doctor and Jo visit the Master in his high-security prison on an island off the south coast of England. The governor, Colonel Trenchard, says ships have been disappearing mysteriously at sea. The Doctor discovers that Trenchard and the Master are in league to contact the Sea Devils, a race of reptiles in hibernation in a base beneath the sea, who have been awoken by recent work on a nearby sea fort. The Master intends to use his new allies to help him conquer the world" The Sea Devils is the third serial of the ninth season of the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly parts on BBC1 from 26 February to 1 April 1972. It was written by Malcolm Hulke and directed by Michael E. Briant. The serial is notable as the first appearance of the Sea Devils and features extensive location filming in cooperation with the Royal Navy, as well as an experimental electronic score by Malcolm Clarke. https://twitter.com/atheconsole https://www.facebook.com/Around-the-console-103450838818887 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPpa1cf63YOT8DlUllsjXsw
We're finding it tough to believe that we're already done with another season! And what a Masterful one Season 8 has been. Literally full of the Master! With that in mind, it's time for our customary season retrospective, as we look back on the height of the UNIT Family™, Roger Delgado's superb turn as everyone's favourite villainous Time Lord, and even a long-awaited jaunt away from Earth! During the episode, Anthony confesses his love of Mr Chinn (Legend of Politics) and his chicken drumstick, Julie steadily loses patience with Anthony's nonsense, Don aligns his musical opinions to those of Julie, and Reilly finds himself growing increasingly frustrated with the amount of gunfights. The entire team find themselves more united than ever before in their opinions of a full season.

We all know there's a great future in plastics, but what about the past? The Randomizer brings us back to 1970s(-ish) Britain, where the Doctor is still in exile and those pesky store-window dummies are coming to life again. But retreading the same monster as last season's premiere isn't why we remember Terror of the Autons — it's the introduction of the Master that makes the story such a landmark. Roger Delgado nails the character's casual, murderous evil from minute one, which almost makes you forgive his inability to fully think through his diabolical plans. (Who knew summoning a plastic-controlling giant octopus from space might be a bad idea?) While Terror is notable for its many firsts, including the debuts of Katy Manning as Jo Grant and Richard Franklin as Mike Yates, does the story measure up to its ambition? Toss your troll doll by the fire, straighten your plastic daffodils, and come listen to find out.

We made it! The final episode of the first series of 'An A to Z of UK TV Drama' is in the can. Rather than choosing the rather obvious Z Cars we thought instead that with this instalment that we'd take a much overdue trip into the world of ITC with the French Riviera-set crime caper The Zoo Gang. First broadcast in 1974 this series, based on the book by Paul Gallico (The Poseidon Adventure), was filmed in Nice and at Pinewood and starred Sir John Mills, Lilli Palmer, Brian Keith and Barry Morse who played four former resistance agents reunited 28 years after the war. Termed The Zoo Gang because of their codenames during the war: The Elephant, The Leopard, The Fox and The Tiger. A raft of familiar guest stars include Roger Delgado (in his last starring role post-Doctor Who), Jacqueline Pearce, Peter Cushing, and Philip Madoc. Both Andy and Martin find much to enjoy here and not just because they get the opportunity to try out their French or, rather, their French accents! Highlights include the title theme by Paul and Linda McCartney, the performances of the main cast, and the fun heist & hustle plots. Some of the acting isn't that great (coo-ee Ingrid Pitt!) and some of the storylines a bit convoluted but this limited-run 6 episode series still feels like a fun and upbeat way to end our series. This episode was brought to you by the words: malheureusement, maintenant, and perdue. As for 'Another A to Z of UK TV Drama' you'll just have to wait and see.
Horror Express - or Pánico en el Transiberiano translated as Panic on the Trans-Siberian, is an English language Spanish science fiction horror film loosely based on the novella Who Goes There? (also a basis for the Thing From Another World, which was in turn was remade as the classic The Thing by John Carpenter.) The film stars Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, with Alberto de Mendoza, Silvia Tortosa, Julio Peña, George Rigaud and Ángel del Pozo in supporting roles, and Telly Savalas in a guest appearance.In 1906, Professor Sir Alexander Saxton, a renowned British anthropologist, played by Lee, is returning to Europe by the Trans-Siberian Express from Shanghai to Moscow. With him is a crate containing the frozen remains of a primitive humanoid creature that he discovered in a cave in Manchuria. Before the train departs Shanghai, a thief is found dead on the platform. His eyes are completely white, without irises or pupils. Later the humanoid is reanimated, roaming the moving train, leaving bodies with the same opaque, white eyes in it's wake. Autopsies suggest that the brains of the victims are being drained of memories and knowledge. When the humanoid is gunned down by police Inspector Mirov, the threat seems to have been eliminated… But the murders continue.Like all Italian and Spanish films of the period, Horror Express was filmed mostly without sound, with effects and voices dubbed into the film later. Lee, Cushing and Savalas all provided their own voices for the English market, with a certain Roger Delgado providing the voice for Inspector Mirov. According to Director Eugenio Martín, the film was made because a producer obtained a train set from the production of Nicholas and Alexandra. "He came up with the idea of writing a script just so he would be able to use this prop,"Horror Express was filmed in Madrid between 1971 and 1972 and produced on a low budget of $300,000 and released a few months after the topic of our very first podcast episode, Dracula AD 1972.$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$Just in case anyone has too much money and wants to give a bit to us to help with our hosting n stuff.

Bang the War Gong! Ben and Mark are back with Lee, Dave and Cameron of The Polis Box to discuss The Mutants. Following an impromptu Jon Pertwee themed round of Would I Lie to You? they discuss the end of empire, science fiction allegories for recent appalling geopolitical behaviour, a disappointing lack of Roger Delgado, jumped up tyrants with gravy on their shirts and unconvincing rubber monsters. Also: Would you give Brian Eno the power to erase people? The proliferation of laboratories in the Pertwee era and the failures of the Gallifreyan postal service. You can join in with the 100th episode recording here.
*With thanks to our listener Paul McEvoy for the title suggestion It's the darkest day, the blackest hour. Chin up, shoulders back, let's see what Ben and Mark are made of as they tackle the existential horrors of 'Dark Water' and 'Death in Heaven'. Under discussion: How careful do you have to be when dealing with death and real world tragedy in what's ostensibly a family show? Whose internal conflict was greater this series - the Doctor's or Steven Moffat's? And most pressingly of all, what is all of this for? After that they squelch their way through Malcolm Clarke's synth soundtrack to discuss another Master plan - 1972's The Sea Devils. Under discussion: nudey monsters, the refinement of Roger Delgado, 70's electronic music and larking about with the Navy. Apologies for Mark's side of the audio, long story short it's the Zoom recording rather than the hard copy from microphone.
An annual has never been released that focused on the Master, until now! Terraqueous Distributors have done it again with the Un-official Master Annual 2074. We look at it page […]
Em Terror of the Autons, primeiro arco da 8ª temporada da série clássica, somos apresentados a novos personagens! Jo Grant (Katy Manning) é a nova companion do Doutor e trabalha para a UNIT. Mas a entrada triunfal fica por conta do novo inimigo do Doutor: o Mestre, em sua primeiríssima aparição, vivido pelo magnânimo Roger Delgado!
The Final Game which is an epic story 7 part story that pits the Third Doctor and Roger Delgado’s Master against each other one final time. You can hear the first three episodes of The Final Game here: Part One Part Two Part Three The cliffhanger to the second episode of The Final Game saw the Daleks arrive, so this podcast is all about these iconic monsters. I asked the cast and writer about the first time they encountered the Daleks on screen, their favourite Dalek stories and what they think is the enduring appeal of the Doctor’s most famous foes. In the second part of the podcast you’ll hear the writer of The Final Game, Chris McKeon, share his thoughts on both the Daleks and the writing of the episode.
Happy New Year, friends and '70s stans! At the dawn of 2020, we're here to talk about the dawn of 1971. It's time for the Third Doctor's second season premiere and it's...well, it's something. "Terror of the Autons" solidifies the UNIT Family and introduces us to Roger Delgado as the Master. It's also absolutely bat-poop insane.
Bess and Chad bid a fond, tearful, farewell to Jon Pertwee's Doctor. They also discuss the lack of a Holiday Doctor Who Episode in 2019 and the misogyny masking itself as criticism of Jodie Whittaker's first season as the Doctor.This episode of Time Lords Are Dicks is brought to you by The Good Baker Shoppe. The Good Baker Shoppe is actually very, very, good! Please stop frequenting The Bad Baker Shoppe across the street. It's woefully overrated.
Charles Skaggs is joined by his Ghostwood: The Twin Peaks Podcast co-host with the most Xan Sprouse to discuss “Terror of the Autons”, the first serial from Doctor Who Season 8 in 1971, starring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, and introducing Katy Manning as Jo Grant, Roger Delgado as The Master, and Richard Franklin as Mike Yates!

Ready for a party in your ears from those wacky Nerds again? This week we are celebrating, scratching our chins in suspicion, and looking at upcoming events that we can use to make money. But first, grab a cup of Earl Grey, hot, get a comfy seat and get ready because we have a party. It’s here, that marvellous time of year when we find out who has won a noble prize! It’s awesome, kind of like a Nerds holiday celebrating knowledge and learning, yay! For those wondering Buck is bouncing around the office with excitement. Speaking of which, his topic this week is the Nobel prize winners in Chemistry, and it is for the Lithium Ion battery. A long time coming we know, but still, it is definitely worthy. Buck is still reading the lists and articles about this, and the Professor is enjoying this to.Next up we have DJ telling us about the latest with him doing little, erm, um, oh, sorry. Apparently it is about the new Dolittle movie, not him being lazy. Now there are some interesting points in this section so make sure you listen carefully. We won’t give away all the details here, no, listen in and see what is happening. We can tell you there is a name change, and no, it isn’t DJ being rebranded to some funny name such as Purveyance Slave Droid. Mainly because he still hasn’t learned how to make the perfect cup of Earl Grey.Next we hear how someone has had an epically lucky coincidence when naming their crowd funding campaign. We are told it is completely unintentional though. Although Buck thinks that this is the next generation of Citizen Con, sorry, Star Con, no, what is it, star rippoff? Oh you know what we mean. Anyway, this bloke was trying to raise capital for a game he was developing and listen in to hear the rest of this fantastic story.As usual we have the shout outs, with special mention to Christina Koch and Jessica Meir, the first all female spacewalk crew. Then we have the usual remembrances, birthdays and special events. We are going to be appearing at Supanova Brisbane so stop by and say hello, we will be happy to see you, also we have a special announcement this next week. Until then, take care of yourselves, look out for each other and stay hydrated.EPISODE NOTES:Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2019 winners - https://www.downtoearth.org.in/news/science-technology/chemistry-nobel-for-development-of-lithium-ion-batteries-67159Dolittle movie update - https://deadline.com/video/universal-dolittle-robert-downey-jr-trailer/Day of Dragons confusion - https://twitter.com/icotom/status/1182291839027761152?s=20Games currently playingDJ– MK 11 - https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/mortal-kombat-11-ps4/Rating – 4/5Buck– World of Warships - https://worldofwarships.com/Rating – 4.5/5Professor– Creeper World 3 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/280220/Creeper_World_3_Arc_Eternal/Rating – 9/10Other topics discussedKryten (Red Dwarf character)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KrytenJohn Goodenough (Oldest Nobel Prize winner at the age of 97)- https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-10-09/nobel-prize-in-chemistry-for-lithium-ion-battery-development/11588298More facts about the Lithium-ion battery- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium-ion_battery1970s energy crisis (Major industrial countries of the world, particularly the United States, Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, faced substantial petroleum shortages, real and perceived, as well as elevated prices.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970s_energy_crisisElectroBOOM (Iranian Canadian comedian, electrical engineer and YouTube personality.)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwIvUbOhcKERoast Rabbit (from the Warner Brothers show : Wackiki Wabbit)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6feJ7k36BPkEnergizer lithium ion batteries- https://www.energizer.com/batteries/energizer-ultimate-lithium-batteriesMemory effect (also known as battery effect, lazy battery effect, or battery memory, is an effect observed in nickel-cadmium and nickel–metal hydride rechargeable batteries that causes them to hold less charge.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_effectNickel Cadmium batteries (type of rechargeable battery using nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel–cadmium_batteryHow to prolong lithium batteries- https://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteriesBaghdad battery (also known as Parthian Battery is a set of three artefacts which were found together: a ceramic pot, a tube of copper, and a rod of iron.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baghdad_BatteryOxford Electric Bell (also known as Clarendon Dry Pile is an experimental electric bell that was set up in 1840 and which has run nearly continuously ever since.

The duo will set their suits to battery power on Friday at 7:50 a.m. when the spacewalk officially starts and exit the Quest airlock. NASA TV begins its live coverage beginning at 6:30 a.m. Once there, the spacewalkers will take about five-and-a-half hours to replace the failed power regulator with a spare BCDU. - https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacestation/2019/10/16/koch-meir-spacewalk-moves-to-friday-as-crew-adjusts-schedule/?fbclid=IwAR2ZuRsNHtKz9ec5c5ZoddN7ecV8juLAgi_lzKzkZubtDjdpDTbgWYL2doISpecial mention: 17 Oct 2019 - The leading solar car competing in the World Solar Challenge has burst into flames, forcing the team out of the race for the first time in 20 years. The solar car — from the Vattenfall Solar Team — caught alight on the Stuart Highway, just south of Port Augusta this morning, just 263 kilometres from the Adelaide finish line. - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-10-17/solar-challenge-leading-vehicle-bursts-into-flames/11611112?sf221644014=1&fbclid=IwAR3qWK_7BtjmI0QrWAn8e1BR5-QUN-jXhpNjBD-lopYDeEjBwVrkdVSSQeMRemembrances11 Oct 2019 - Alexei Leonov, Soviet Russian cosmonaut,Air Force major general, writer, and artist. On 18 March 1965, he became the first human to conduct a spacewalk, exiting the capsule during the Voskhod 2 mission for 12 minutes and 9 seconds. He was connected to the craft by a 4.8-metre (16 ft) tether. At the end of the spacewalk, Leonov's spacesuit had inflated in the vacuum of space to the point where he could not re-enter the airlock. He opened a valve to allow some of the suit's pressure to bleed off and was barely able to get back inside the capsule. Leonov had spent eighteen months undergoing weightlessness training for the mission. In July 1975, Leonov commanded the Soyuz capsule in the Soyuz–Apollo mission, which docked in space for two days with an American Apollo capsule. Leonov was an accomplished artist whose published books include albums of his artistic works and works he did in collaboration with his friend Andrei Sokolov. Leonov took coloured pencils and paper into space, where he sketched the Earth and drew portraits of the Apollo astronauts who flew with him during the 1975 Apollo–Soyuz Test Project. Arthur C. Clarke wrote in his notes to 2010: Odyssey Two that, after a 1968 screening of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Leonov pointed out to him that the alignment of the Moon, Earth, and Sun shown in the opening is essentially the same as that in Leonov's 1967 painting Near the Moon, although the painting's diagonal framing of the scene was not replicated in the film. Clarke kept an autographed sketch of this painting—which Leonov made after the screening—hanging on his office wall. Clarke dedicated 2010: Odyssey Two to Leonov and Soviet physicist Andrei Sakharov; and the fictional spaceship in the book is named Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov. He was the last living member of the five cosmonauts in the Voskhod programme. He died from a long illness at the age of 85 in Moscow. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexei_Leonov11 Oct 2019 - Robert Forster , American actor, known for his roles as John Cassellis in Haskell Wexler's Medium Cool, Lebanese terrorist Abdul Rafai in The Delta Force, and Max Cherry in Quentin Tarantino's Jackie Brown, for which he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Forster's varied filmography further includes titles such as Me, Myself & Irene, Mulholland Drive, The Descendants, Olympus Has Fallen, London Has Fallen, and What They Had. He also had prominent roles in television series such as Banyon, Heroes, and Twin Peaks (2017). He won the Saturn Award for Best Guest Starring Role on Television for his performance as Ed Galbraith also referred to as the Disappearer in the Breaking Bad episode "Granite State", reprising his role in the series' sequel film El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, which premiered the day of his death. He died from brain cancer at the age of 78 in Los Angeles, California - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Forster14 Oct 1984 – Sir Martin Ryle, Englishradio astronomer who developed revolutionary radio telescope systems and used them for accurate location and imaging of weak radio sources. In 1946 Ryle and Derek Vonberg were the first people to publish interferometric astronomical measurements at radio wavelengths. With improved equipment, Ryle observed the most distant known galaxies in the universe at that time. He was the first Professor of Radio Astronomy at the University of Cambridge, and founding director of the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory. He was Astronomer Royal from 1972 to 1982. Ryle and Antony Hewish shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974, the first Nobel prize awarded in recognition of astronomical research.[6] In the 1970s, Ryle turned the greater part of his attention from astronomy to social and political issues which he considered to be more urgent. He died from a long illness at the age of 66 in Cambridge. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_RyleFamous Birthdays14 Oct 1801 - Joseph Plateau, Belgian physicist and mathematician. He was one of the first people to demonstrate the illusion of a moving image. To do this, he used counterrotating disks with repeating drawn images in small increments of motion on one and regularly spaced slits in the other. He called this device of 1832 the phenakistiscope. The projection of stroboscopic photographs, creating the illusion of motion, eventually led to the development of cinema. Plateau also studied the phenomena of capillary action and surface tension. The mathematical problem of existence of a minimal surface with a given boundary is named after him. He conducted extensive studies of soap films and formulated Plateau's laws which describe the structures formed by such films in foams. He was born in Brussels - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Plateau14 Oct 1927 – Sir Roger Moore, English actor best known for playing British secret agent James Bond in seven feature films from 1973 to 1985, beginning with Live and Let Die. His most notable television role was playing the main character, Simon Templar, in the British television series The Saint from 1962 to 1969. He also had roles in some American television shows and films in the late 1950s and early 1960s, including replacing James Garner and portraying Beau Maverick in the Maverick series in 1960 to 61. Moore starred with Tony Curtis in The Persuaders television series in 1971 to 1972, and had roles in several theatrical films in the 1970s and 1980s. Moore was appointed a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador in 1991 and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2003 for services to charity. In 2007, he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in television and film. In 2008, the French government appointed him a Commander of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. He was born in Stockwell, London - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Moore14 Oct 1946 - Katy Manning, English-Australian actress best known for her part as the companion Jo Grant in the BBC science fiction television series Doctor Who. She has also made many theatre appearances, and is now an Australian citizen. In 2009, Manning moved back to the UK to pursue new acting work and currently lives in London. While she played the part of Jo Grant alongside Jon Pertwee's incarnation of the Doctor, Manning struck up an immediate rapport with her co-stars Pertwee, Nicholas Courtney (The Brigadier), John Levene (Sergeant Benton), Richard Franklin (Captain Mike Yates) and Roger Delgado (the Master). Fans of Doctor Who often refer to these characters as the UNIT family — UNIT, the United Nations Intelligence Taskforce, being the fictional United Nations organisation that the Doctor worked for. Manning is the only surviving Doctor Who companion from Jon Pertwee's era. She was born in Guildford, Surrey - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katy_ManningEvents of Interest14 Oct 1884 - George Eastman patents paper-strip photographic film. Eastman's invention revolutionized photography by using coated paper and rollers, rather than heavy glass dry plates, to reproduce images. Eastman began looking for ways to "make the camera as convenient as the pencil," after amassing the heavy, complicated, and expensive equipment he needed to keep a picture record of his vacation. This invention allowed him to mass produce a small hand-held box camera filled with rolls of film with 100 exposures. Millions of Americans recorded the first snap shots of their everyday lives using the Kodak camera, which was introduced in 1888.- https://www.uspto.gov/about-us/news-updates/kodak-film-patent-issued-october-14-1884- https://patents.google.com/patent/US306594A/en14 Oct 1892 - Arthur Conan Doyle publishes "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" collection of 12 stories originally published serially in "The Strand Magazine". The stories are collected in the same sequence, which is not supported by any fictional chronology. The only characters common to all twelve are Holmes and Dr. Watson and all are related in first-person narrative from Watson's point of view. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Sherlock_Holmes14 Oct 1926 - Winnie the Pooh was published, written by A. A. Milne and illustrated by E. H. Shepard. The book focuses on the adventures of a teddy bear called Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends Piglet, a small toy pig; Eeyore, a toy donkey; Owl, a live owl; and Rabbit, a live rabbit. The characters of Kanga, a toy kangaroo, and her son Roo are introduced later in the book, in the chapter entitled "In Which Kanga and Baby Roo Come to the Forest and Piglet has a Bath". The bouncy toy-tiger character of Tigger is not introduced until the sequel, The House at Pooh Corner. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winnie-the-Pooh_(book)14 Oct 1947 - Chuck Yeager becomes the first person to exceed the speed of sound, Yeager flew the X-1 rocket over Rogers Dry Lake in Southern California. The X-1 was lifted to an altitude of 25,000 feet by a B-29 aircraft and then released through the bomb bay, rocketing to 40,000 feet and exceeding 662 miles per hour (the sound barrier at that altitude). The rocket plane nicknamed “Glamorous Glennis” (after Yeager's wife), was designed with thin, unswept wings and a streamlined fuselage modeled after a .50-caliber bullet. Because of the secrecy of the project, Bell and Yeager’s achievement was not announced until June 1948. - https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/yeager-breaks-sound-barrierIntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS - http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssGeneral EnquiriesEmail - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.com

The concluding episode of the Metebelis Two's three-part celebration of the Jon Pertwee centenary focusing on seasons 9 through 11. Ben explains how first reading Target novilisations made the actual viewing of the stories a bit anticlimatic. BBC productions values of the early 1970s could not compete with the vivid memories of an 8-year-old's imagination, Ingrid Pitt's costume in The Time Monster aside. Then the two do a deep dive into how Omega's guards are pronounced. Is it with a /g/ sound like with gar or a /j/ sound like with jar; on-the-fly research was done and sources were cited. A brief sidebar about the new action figures for Big Finish / Character Option, including Harry Sullivan. Were Ogrons the classic series Judoon? Why was the Master having a bit of laugh in Roger Delgado's final story? Did Mac Hulke not like Pertwee's usual outfits? These questions and more! Opening music is from Dudley Simpson's score for the Frontier in Space and closing music is from his score for Planet of the Spiders.
This is the second episode of our three-part Jon Pertwee centenary celebration. We begin by discussing Pertwee's career post-Who and wonder about Worzel Gummidge. What was the appeal for Jon and the audience? We briefly touch upon his recording career and his tenure as a quiz show host. (Ben, fiercely loyal to Pertwee as Doctor Who, boycotted it all!) Then we begin a retrospective of seasons 7 and 8 and talk about how having a regular company or family of actors on the who probably helped out actors like Pertwee and Nick Courtney. We wrap up singing Roger Delgado's praises and how much his untimely death altered the course of Who forever. Opening music is "Dover Castle" composed by Dudley Simpson. Closing music is "I am the Doctor" with Jon Pertwee.
In this months Who's He? Podcast.... The News Since the lads have been away, Big Finish have celebrated 20 years of Doctor Who audio stories, Jon Pertwee centenary celebrations, the sad loss of actor Glynn Houston and they also discuss at some length the absence of Doctor Who at this years San Diego Comic Con. Mini Review In a short review, they look at episode one of The Final Game from Black Glove Studios with their audio version of the unmade final Master story for Roger Delgado. Review Finally Phil and Paul reach the end of the series one retrospective with The Parting of The Ways, in which Phil yet again discloses his dislike of Rose and the pair of them discuss what might have happened had Christopher Eccleston made another series.
Charles Skaggs is joined by returning special guest companion John Takacs to discuss "The Mind of Evil", the second serial from Doctor Who Season 8 in 1971, featuring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, Katy Manning as Jo Grant, Nicholas Courtney as The Brigadier, and Roger Delgado as the First Master!

Time is against them as Ben and Mark battle sickness and a naughty dog to bring you their discussion about 'The Wedding of River Song' and 'The Time Monster'. Two season finales as Steven Moffat brings his tangled web of plotlines together to close out Series 6 and Robert Sloman does whatever it is he's doing to close Series 10. Why does the Doctor have a mullet? Is the new series missing the madness of Moffat? Is Kronos, God of time really such a threat? How does eating pheasant at a publicly funded institution look? How sexy is Roger Delgado? ALSO: Ben and Mark discuss their reactions to Series 11 thus far and question whether or not Doctor Who is still for them.

Character Profile: The MasterThe Master is one of the Doctor's greatest foes, and just like our favorite Time Lord, this villain regenerates over the years. Jessica and Phillip talk the various Masters (and Mistress), and which ones played to tropes and which created nuance & complexity. In their look into the TARDIS library, they revisit the first appearance of The Master (Roger Delgado) in the Third Doctor adventure, "Terror of the Autons," which also introduces Jo Grant.Who was your favorite Master/Mistress?
Jason and Paul return for Roger Delgado's swan song as The Master. "Frontier in Space" features the 3rd Doctor and Jo getting mixed up in the politics of war... and prison. They tour the prisons of the galaxy as the Master's schemes threaten to pit two powerful empires to destroy one another. Can the Doctor stay on the right side of the prison bars long enough to stop him?
Which character in the long-running TV series “Dr Who” can change form, allowing them to be played by a different actor?Well yes – obviously the Doctor. But also – the Master!! Yes, the Doctor’s Gallifreyan brother-from-another-mother – himself a Time Lord – can also regenerate and has. And yes, like the Doctor, he can sometimes be a she.USQ popular culture researcher Dr Marcus Harmes grew up watching the first Master – played by the late Roger Delgado – and has just released a biography called “I Am Usually Referred to as The Master”. He's speaking with Phoenix Radio's Spencer Howson.
And so the Peter Capaldi era ends, the Jodie Whittaker era begins, and the David Bradley era sneaks in through the side door for “Twice Upon A Time”, the 2017 Doctor Who Christmas Special. But what did the Three Who Rule think? Join them as they examine the final story of the Steven Moffat era, and the precious few seconds we have until Autumn 2018 of an entirely new Doctor! And, by popular (two people, let’s be honest) request, we also have a spoiler-filled discussion of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, squared away near the end for those of you who enjoy that sort of thing.

Interstellar war, a lunar prison break and Roger Delgado's final appearance as The Master
Today, we dive into the incredible and singular run of the Third Doctor, Jon Pertwee, with the wild, wacky, and wonderful 1971 serial “The Daemons,” by Barry Letts and Robert Sloman (writing under the joint pseudonym “Guy Leopold”). The last serial in the season that introduced Roger Delgado's iconic Master, and featured him in every one of the year's stories, “The Daemons” closes Season 8 on an action-packed high note, with one of the most thrilling, creative, and straight-up entertaining stories Doctor Who would ever tell. And it features the entire Third Doctor gang, including companion Jo Grant (Katy Manning), Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart (Nicholas Courtney), and UNIT soldiers Sergeant Benton (John Levene) and Captain Mike Yates (Richard Frankling). In addition to “The Daemons,” we also talk about the entire Third Doctor era up to that point, and all the ways it distinguishes itself from other periods in the show's history.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Absence from the Master makes both hearts grow fonder. Take a short hiatus from full-tilt, beards-to-the-wall Roger Delgado stories, and his dastardly return is like that delicious thin mint after a massive four-course meal. Pair that little morsel of menace with a digestif of a Silurian spin-off species, and you’ve got a Whovian meal to remember. This week, we slowly rise from the depths of main show hiatus to absorb the six-part aquatic adventure, […]

They've finally made it! Jason and Paul, at long last, are talking about the Master in their Master story reviews!

Get ready for carnivorous chairs, disappearing horseboxes, and the beginning of a terrible friendship!
Oddly topical for a podcast recorded back in August, Ben, Mark and their good friend Derek discuss poor decisions made in the interests of marketing as they cover Victory of the Daleks and The Claws of Axos. Over the course of 100 minutes, they cover everything from the ill-judged colourful Daleks, the perfectly judged Ironside Daleks, the magic of Bill Paterson, bureaucratic slugs, Jon Pertwee impressions, maths problems and a remote control Bob Hope

Ashford and Josh are back to discuss a Malcolm Hulke story, Frontier in Space. The boys are kind of sad, for this is the last Roger Delgado story on their list of Doctor Who sagas featuring Time Lords other than the Doctor. Yes, the Master is up to no good once again. Ashford will also discuss the second Big Finish Gallifrey story, Square One. Please contact us on Twitter @SOGallifrey.
Yes, we are back with the Time Monster written by Robert Sloman. Ashford is hosting this one by himself, but Josh will be back for the 3 Doctors. Ashford tries his best to give you a fresh take on a serial that not too many are fond of. This is the penultimate episode for Roger Delgado's Master, so enjoy, for he is The Master, and he turns it up to 11.

An extended vacation over the holidays means extra podcasts. Today, we're joined by Iain Hepburn, host of the From the Sublime (@fromthesublime) podcast to talk about (3:50) Partick Thistle Football Club and their potentially nightmare-inducing mascot Kingsley, (7:55) the NXT UK tour (he was at the Glasgow and Blackpool house shows), (17:13) contemporary comic book TV shows including Arrow, the upcoming Heroes of Tomorrow and the recently-released Jessice Jones. We also chat about classic British TV, both (24:02) British Sci-Fi and (35:55) British comedy and all the connections between the shows (Is there really an episode of Randall & Hopkirk, Deceased featuring Brian Blessed, Nick Courtney and Roger Delgado?) and (41:18) season 9 of Doctor Who. There's even talk about Iain's former podcast, the gone-but=not-forgotten (47:40) Thumbcast and the year-end episode of From the Sublime.
In a slightly tense, raucous and rambling finale to Series 3, Ben and Mark welcome Andrew Blair and Tony Sloan (Host of The Geeking Awesome podcast) to try and figure out whether or not the Master is an effective villain as they discuss The Sound of Drums/Last of the Timelords and Terror of the Autons. There's singing, Eric Roberts impressions, an appreciation of Doctor Who insults and nary a mention of Comic Con 2015. (Because we recorded this AGES ago, that trailer's quite exciting though innit?)
In this episode of Oi! Spaceman, Daniel and Shana are joined by Lee Russell of Hougly Reviews and the They Must Be Destroyed on Sight! podcast (often co-hosted by Daniel, so go check it out). They discuss the Third Doctor romp "The Sea Devils," with mentions of some terrible creature effects, campy overacting from Roger Delgado, and what Mac Hulke's socialism meant for his work on Doctor Who. Main Topic: The Sea Devils. Introducing Lee. Shana's initial thoughts on The Sea Devils: fashion victims. With a political subtext. "You don't have to pay attention to that shit!" The Sea Devils in context with the Pertwee Era. Pertwee driving around in boats and Jo Grant getting shit done. A very typical but atypical Pertwee. Can't compare Jo to Liz. Not quite a father/daughter relationship. Moving on to the Master. Eleven-dimensional chess. A useful idiot. The Three/Master dynamic. Turtle drag queens and wisdom. The Master watches the Clangers. Repeated plots in the Silurian stories. Dudes in rubber masks talking politics. "Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow." Parlaimentary Private Secretary Walker. Is Walker a stand-in for Barry Letts? Stupid Sexy Military. Sandwiches and swordfights. Dickish Jon Pertwee. Would Liz Shaw put up with it? Lee and Daniel talk about the beer can. Did Jo kill a guard? The death of Roger Delgado. Malcolm Clarke's score. The Sea-Doo chase. Screwdriver usage. Wrapping up. Next week: The Three Doctors. Find Our Stuff! Find us on iTunes!

Kurzentschlossen gibt es heute statt des Postcastes erst einmal die Besprechung der klassischen Folge "The Time Monster" mit Jon Pertwee und Roger Delgado. Da der Podcast in etwas gemütlicherer Atmosphäre als üblich aufgenommen wurde, bitten wir, gelegentliche Schwankungen in der Tonqualität zu entschuldigen.

On this week's Kasterborous podKast (with a "K") we're discussing the classic era versions of the Master, namely Roger Delgado and Anthony Ainley - plus a little bit of Peter Pratt, Geoffrey Beevers and Eric Roberts!
In this anniversary year of Doctor Who's 50th, take a listen to its 10th! That's right. This is Episode 10 covering the tenth anniversary season of Doctor Who in 1973 featuring some old Doctors, an epic 12-part story, the departure of Jo, and the final hours of Roger Delgado as the Master. thequestisthequest@yahoo.com
In "Carnival of Monsters," The Doctor and Jo are miniaturized and placed in a machine where they must fight for their lives. Then in "Frontier in Space," they're pawns in The Master's plan to destroy two spacefaring races. Also, Dan and Mike speak fondly of Roger Delgado, whose tenure as The Master ended with the latter story.
