Doctor Who: Toby Hadoke’s Time Travels

From the dusty vaults ... here we have the self proclaimed Champion of the Damned, Frazer Gregory, extolling the virtues of this under-loved tale. Will you agree with his preaching, or condemn him to be crushed underneath a giant rock for blasphemy?

Well there is certainly a lot of correspondence about this one! It has definitely divided opinion, sometimes within the story itself. But everyone is trying very hard - on the commentary and the correspondence! Possibly trying harder than the people making it. Or are we being unfair? Well, Nev Fountain, prolific and admired writer, is prolific and admiring in his praise for the final episode of this story, in which we say goodbye to one of the show's greatest on-screen contributors (and no, we don't mean Derek Deadman).

How do we feel about this one? Tonally this is where Doctor Who seems to be leaning into its production difficulties by upping the humour... but humour in Doctor Who is so hard to judge. Is it to do with tone? Delivery? Context? Or is it simply personal taste? Well, the latter definitely comes into it, and will certainly dictate how viewers respond to a lot of what takes place in this episode. Nev Fountain illustrates his choice with typical insight and intelligence, so it's well worth hanging around for his summation of this episode's best bit. But will your host have chosen the same thing?

Nev Fountain continues his tour of Gallifrey and takes us to the episode that features no Borusa... so one of the best things about the story is conspicuous by its absence. And Nev and Toby have already both voted for Milton Johns. So they will have to look very carefully and closely at this one, and hope it doesn't deliver any unpleasant surprises. Oh, and this is also probably the rudest Happy Times and Places has ever got. It's your fault.

The You Tube version of this podcast will feature full video, not a placeholder logo as in recent years.

Things are hotting up on Gallifrey, and design work aside, your host is also feeling more warmly towards this story. But will he and his illustrious guest - comedy stalwart Nev Fountain - agree with each other about the episode's strong points or are their thought channels on completely different wavelengths?

The version of this released on You Tube will feature full video (of Toby, not the copyrighted programme!)
