Radio Free Skaro #987 - A Succulent Chinese Meal

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

It’s an exciting week for Doctor Who content as a new “Joy to the World” clip surfaced on Children in Need featuring snark, dinosaurs, and a Silurian in a briefcase along with a teaser from the episode’s writer, one Steven Moffat! Plus a “Coming in 2025” trailer for Disney+ that does not feature Doctor Who at all? Controversial? Not really. Plus Ncuti Gatwa in Vanity Fair being handsome as usual, a sneak peek at updated Blake’s 7 effects, and an exciting adventure in space and time as we present a special anniversary-themed Classic Series Commentary of the raw pilot recording of...

Things have taken a turn for the truly awful in the world this week, but Radio Free Skaro is here to assuage your worries (Steven) or at least acknowledge them (Warren). If you’re looking to distract yourself from the latest grim fandango, we have news of deleted scenes coming November 23, unaired footage of David Tennant running around the TARDIS set in “The Star Beast”, props on the auction block, Big Finish art critiques, and an interview with Blake’s 7 Series 1 Blu-Ray contributors Jonathan Helm, Chris Chapman, and Chris Thompson!

Radio Free Skaro #984 - Intellect and Nomance

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

It’s time for some overanalyzing, pondering and intellectual cogitating as the Three Who Rule examine the second anniversary of the Disney+ and Doctor Who agreement, as well as a fascinating survey from the UCLA (partially funded by Disney) of what teens are both watching and want to see!

Radio Free Skaro #983 - Spherical Hieroglyphics

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

Controversy stalks the BBC as the question is asked: did they censor Ncuti Gatwa’s comments on The Graham Norton Show about a possible third season of New New Doctor Who? And the answer is…likely not. What is much more probable is the Three Who Rule excoriating the current state of television while referring to a recent Deadline story on that same topic, but enough of these dour matters! There’s a new Gallifreyan translator that can turn your words into circles, an Adventures in Type and Space book on the way featuring the work of Sid Sutton, and part two of our Terry Nation Miniscope,...

Radio Free Skaro #982 - A Gin-Fueled Tour of the Finer Salons

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

It’s a new and wonderful era as Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday action dollies are both announced and will trounce your bank account! That’s in addition to intrigue and mumblesuch on the set of the Graham Norton Show as insight-sharer Ncuti Gatwa mentions movement on the Series 3 front, which was then mysteriously absent from the broadcast! There’s a contest to see the upcoming Xmas special “Joy to the World” in your local cinema, unless you live in Canada, in which case you can go to hell, and ITV is now premiering Coronation Street online previous to broadcast, a move sure to...

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

It’s a banner week for VAM enthusiasts as comedian, writer and Blu-Ray documentary impresario Toby Hadoke joins the show for a wide-ranging discussion and mutual Doctor Who actor identification session with Steven, plus we have some ruminating on both a Variety article about toxic fandom and foment a conspiracy about the lack of 1980s Cybermen in Big Finish! Could it be an audio phonic conspiracy to commit David Banks erasure? Listen…and find out nothing! Links: Interview:

Radio Free Skaro #980 - Close To The Edit

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

It’s a banner day for filmic snipping enthusiasts as we have an exclusive (we emailed, he said yes) interview with film editor and 1960s Doctor Who alumnus Chris Hayden, who speaks with Steven about working on “Planet of Giants” and “The War Games”, hanging out with New Hollywood legends in the early 1970s, and more!

Radio Free Skaro #979 - Doctor Who and The Invasion, Starring Peter Ustinov

Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

On this week’s show, Archie Panjabi is playing a new Doctor Who villain (probably not The Rani) next season, plus Russell T Davies and Disney+ teasing a TARDIS set pic (and potential Season 3 renewal?) on Instagram, but the key to this whole endeavour is the flights of fancy on our latest Fluid Links where we invent not one but two imaginary Doctor Who media properties! Lights, camera, nonsense! Links:

More Episodes

The Doctor Who publicity machine is slipping into second gear with Gatwa and Gibson making the rounds of a BBC premiere, chat shows, Variety Magazine, and more, but that doesn’t stop the Three Who Rule from marinating in questionable nostalgia as they recall viewing The Phantom Menace for the first time 25 years ago, aka the Dawn of Anticipointment. Plus we issue an all hands on deck alert for next week’s Gallifrey One Hotelmageddon, and Warren emerges from the Metaverse to give his take on the just released PS VR2 version of The Edge of Time! Don your own Helmet of Pretend and join us!
