O Willow Tree! O Willow Tree! How lovely are thy branches! Alas, dear listeners. It has been quite a journey we have taken together. Join us as we look back over a most remarkable year of Polin, celebrating string quartets, non-friendly dreams and a very Shooketh Colin. We'll be playing Secret Santa for our dearest members of the ton, gifting Byron's novel to an unappreciative Benedict, maple sugar to a suspicious Pen and parmesan cheese ice cream to a grimacing Eloise. And after we've nursed our hangovers with Colin and checked on those pesky staffing issues at Bridgerton House, we'll be joined by the Ghosts of Seasons' Past and Present for a festive trip to the library. Seasons' Greetings, dearest listeners. 'Tis the Season to be Polin. * Show Notes Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library “Art of the Swoon.” Bridgerton. Written by Leila Cohan-Miccio.

The family you choose, rather than the family you’re born into, is fertile territory for writers. From Henry V, to The Lord of the Rings, to Josie and the Pussycats, family dynamics between those who start as strangers keep storytelling going. Playwright Temi Wilkey and screenwriter Sarah Dollard join Samira to talk about the enduring and endearing nature of the chosen family story. Inspired by real events, BBC One’s New Years Day drama The Serpent tells the story of how the conman and murderer Charles Sobhraj (Tahar Rahim) was brought to justice. Posing as a gem dealer, Sobhraj and his girlfriend Marie-Andrée Leclerc (Jenna Coleman) travelled across Thailand, Nepal and India in 1975 and 1976, carrying out a spree of crimes on the Asian ‘Hippie Trail’ until Herman Knippenberg (Billy Howle), a junior diplomat at the Dutch Embassy in Bangkok, unwittingly walks into his intricate web of crime. Samira Ahmed talks to the director of The Serpent Tom Shankland. Percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie is the first full time solo percussionist. A career built in part by expanding the percussion repertoire by more than 200 pieces created alongside major composers, orchestras and musicians. In January she’s releasing two new albums. She talks to Samira about working with composers, listening in Lockdown, and demonstrates some of her over 2000 instruments. Presenter: Samira Ahmed Producer: Hilary Dunn
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/
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 talk to two long time friends, Sarah Dollard and Lili Wilkinson, on how they approach writing character for the screen and on the page. We hear them discuss how they met, their approach to writing characters (even if they're not human), and what makes for a great hero or villian.
It's a few days late, but MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast is back to wrap up the final day of 2018's edition of the amazing Gallifrey One convention. It was a day that transcended, due to an amazing panel called "Gallifrey Waits No More" featuring all of the ladies of Doctor Who (in front and behind the camera) at the convention (and moderated by the amazing Deb Stanish) that turned into a cathartic and harrowingly real and emotional session. We talk about that and our reactions on this podcast (and we'll go in more detail on this and Gally in general with guests in the weeks to come). Also, we talk about Alyssa Franke's heartfelt recap of the panel, and there's a link here to that post: Whovian Feminism on GWNM. We'll also talk about the great Kaffeeklatsch with Rachel Talalay and Sarah Dollard that we were fortunate enough to attend; Will's meet-and-greet with Jemma Redgrave; and all of the rest of the Sunday goings-on. Please have a listen!
It's a double shot of DOCTOR WHO discussion this week on the MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast! We have our great friends Kim Rogers & Sage Young of HeadOverFeels.com back with us to discuss their thoughts on Series 10 of DOCTOR WHO - they liked a lot (Sarah Dollard, Rona Munro, Peter Capaldi, Pearl Mackie, Michelle Gomez), but they were also really disappointed with how the character of Bill was handled and treated. They pull no punches in their critique, which is great - their love for the show and for Bill is evident in their high expectations and honest appraisal of how it all went. BUT, before the series 10 recap, we jump FORWARD in time to discuss the naming of JODIE WHITTAKER as the 13th Doctor with KIM (flying solo this time) - we get her reactions and thoughts on how Jodie will do, plus Kim gives a great and impassioned exhortation about the need for more women of color in the Whoniverse as well as her dream for DOCTOR WHO to be an incubator of new and diverse talent, both on screen and off. SO - it's 36 minutes with Kim on Jodie Whittaker followed by an hour of Kim & Sage on Series 10 - a double-header of WHO content this week! NOTES: This episode has some EXPLICIT language, so be warned. :) That "E" is there for a reason this week!
MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast is back with its review of Series 10 of DOCTOR WHO! We'll talk all about what we loved (Capaldi, Pearl, Michelle Gomez, Sarah Dollard, Rona Munro) in Series 10 as well as what we did NOT care for (THE MONKS, the BBC publicity department who spoiled John Simm's return). We'll dive into our favorite episodes and moments while also talking about those that left us wanting. We'll also talk a bit about expectations for the Christmas special. Please have a listen! NOTE: This was recorded BEFORE ep 137 that was posted on Monday.
"The Pyramid at the End of the World" reviewed, Sarah Dollard interviewed, and the Second Doctor discussed - A 5,000-year-old pyramid drops into existence in a single day as a harbinger of apocalypse. We talk about this part-two-of-three and whether it addresses the questions about “consent” it raises. Also in this feature-length podcast: We talk to Sarah Dollard, writer of this season’s “Thin Ice,” and Reality Bomb’s Shannon Dohar and Graeme Burk explore the Received Fan Wisdom about the Second Doctor! Host Chip Sudderth and Alyssa Franke with Rachel Donner, Sarah Dollard, Shannon Dohar and Graeme Burk.

... in which Capaldi shines while dressed to the nines, thanks once again to the writing of Sarah Dollard. This week JB is joined by Nicole Corrigan from the Two Girls A Guy And A TARDIS Podcast for a review of "Thin Ice".
In which Danica’s cold, cold heart is awoked. On this week’s show, Brandon and Danica travel to 1814 to see The Doctor and Bill fight Scaffolding in the Series 10 episode “Thin Ice”. Along the way, they classify different types of orphans, the show addresses racism (?) and Bill is rad as hell. We loved this episode and Sarah Dollard is our new queen now.
MUTTER’S SPIRAL Podcast is back, and we're talking about "Thin Ice", the delightful 3rd episode of Series 10 of DOCTOR WHO, written by the amazing Sarah Dollard! John and I will talk all about Bill's first trip into the past and the lessons she learns from her tutor, the Doctor. This week, she sees some of the hard truths of the life she's embarked upon and has to confront death and suffering in a way she hasn't yet (i.e., as it happens directly in front of her). While there are many great and serious lines, speeches, and thoughts in this episode, there are just as many funny moments plus the continued great chemistry between Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie. We will rhapsodize over those, as well as giving well-deserved kudos to the costuming and the overall design of the episode, courtesy of Haley Nebauer and Michael Pickwoad, respectively. It's our favorite episode of the season, and one we both think will continue to delight us for years to come. Quintessential Doctor Who! Please have a listen, won't you?
In this episode, Paul and Phil put on their skating boots and head out onto the Thin Ice to review this weeks Doctor Who! Is this going to be 3 out of 3 for the Who's He? lads (ok, Phil wobbled a bit last week)? Will Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie continue their amazing on screen chemistry? Well, the answer is a resounding yes to both questions as they both enjoy the hell out of Sarah Dollard's 19th century set romp! We also find out what you at home thought as well in our listener feedback section. And in the news, Steven Moffatt to attend this years Hay Festival and that's about it! But there is Omega's Stats Corner and Tat Corner to fill the void!
The TARDIS lands back in 1814 for the final Frost Fair on the frozen Thames.

Intro and outro music by Murray Gold from the "Thin Ice" soundtrack.

Nesta edição falamos sobre o 10º episódio da 9ª temporada, Face the Raven, escrito por Sarah Dollard.
We may not be quite sure whether this is truly the end for Clara, but we all agree that "Face the Raven" is a fantastic story and a great debut by writer Sarah Dollard. Join Deb, Lynne, and Tansy as we evaluate character departures, discuss character motivation, and touch on Steven Moffat's commitment issues. We examine Clara Oswald's arc and try to determine whether she was running toward death or running from grief. We also discuss the themes of morality throughout Series 9 because, why not? (I think it's safe to say we loved this one.) What did you think of "Face the Raven"? Do you think Clara met a fitting end or did her death feel too slight or insignificant? Do you think Mayor Me is the other side of the Doctor's morality or just a misguided villain? Let us know in the comments! ^D Also covered [links on our site]: Tansy is captivated by the Doctor Who version of the Bayeux Tapestry depicting 50 years of the show Lynne is greatly amused by the gifs and photos of Messrs. Capaldi, Moffat and Gatiss coming in THIRD in a Doctor Who pub quiz at the Doctor Who Festival in Australia. Deb got a frisson of nostalgia/joy/excitement at hearing the Big Finish Preview for the upcoming tenth Doctor and Donna Noble audios. She also started listening to Unit - Extinction in hopes of resurrecting her Kate Lethbridge-Stewart love.
We're back, and we're sad - join us as we talk about "Face The Raven" - DOCTOR WHO Series 9, Episode 10. We'll discuss Clara's exit and how we feel about her, the exit and how it was done, and what it means going forward. It's a gorgeously written episode from Sarah Dollard, and we pay homage to her while dealing with our feelings. We'll also go into historical context as well. Plus, some trivia. BTW, the musical intro is "Clara?" from Murray Gold and the Series 7 soundtrack.
And so we come to the end of Clara Oswald, one of the most consequential companions in the history of Doctor Who and the focus of “Face The Raven,” the third to last story in Series 9. What did the Three Who Rule think of Clara’s departure, writer Sarah Dollard’s debut, and the return of Rigsy? And, as the Three catch up on various news items of the past couple weeks, what of stats, comics, DVDs and other frip-frap? Next week, Steven calls in from Chicago TARDIS and we look at “Heaven Sent,” the Capaldi one-hander leading into the Series 9 finale. Woot! Check out the show notes at http://www.radiofreeskaro.com
This week it's Lynne's turn to pick a companion-tastic story, and bafflingly, she chose Nyssa in "Black Orchid". Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we discuss all the companions in "Black Orchid". Lynne does have some strong reasons why Nyssa shines here. Deb thinks it's a stronger Tegan story. And Erika discovers it's her new favorite Adric story. It may be a short story, but with the crowded TARDIS of the fifth Doctor era, there are lots of companions to go around! What do you think of this story? Would you have picked a different Nyssa story? Or can you think of other reasons this is a goor one for her? And do you find Adric boring? Charming? Annoying? Let us know in the comments! And remember, you have about a week left to contribute to the Uncanny Magazine Year Two Kickstarter and make an extra difference thanks to an amazing Verity! listener! ^E Also covered [links on our site]: Lynne goes "woo hoo!" over the forthcoming Doctor Who LEGO! Erika had a great time at Worldcon/Sasquan: visiting KSPS in Spokane! meeting some lovely Verity! listeners! guesting on Radio Free Skaro #490! Liz is giddy that Doctor Who is coming back in a few weeks!
