"three possible versions of Atlantis" Also, the Doctor goes through all the trouble of procuring a TANK but then sticks a tiny amp on top of it: He couldn't have grabbed a Marshall stack or something while he was at it?

Why why WHY do they insist on not having the opening title sequence in sync with the music half the time?

After watching The Ambassadors of Death for the first time tonight I was reading about it afterward and came across this quote from Terrance Dicks on Wikipedia:Terrance Dicks posted:One of the situations I inherited [as Doctor Who script editor] was Ambassadors of Death and the ongoing tangle with that. David Whitaker...had gone through four or five drafts and you come to a stage where you write so much it just gets worse. What was happening was that the need for the script was very urgent and I stormed into [producers] Peter [Bryant] and Derrick [Sherwin] and said, "Look, we've got five drafts of this. David's fed up with it, he doesn't know what to do. What we need to do is pay David in full and Mac [Hulke] and I will finish." And that's basically what we did. I made sure that David got a full script fee for all his episodes because he had been buggered about by the establishment and Mac and I took the bare bones of his story and almost did a "War Games" - wrote new scripts very quickly - and it shows. It had its moments though. Which then led to the entry for Inferno: Wikipedia posted:Despite Douglas Camfield receiving sole credit as director, Episodes 3-7 were directed by producer Barry Letts[2] after Camfield had a minor heart attack on April 27, 1970. Letts later stated that Camfield's preparations were so meticulous, that he merely followed the other director's plans. Camfield remained credited as director, as BBC regulations at the time forbade any person from being credited for more than one production role, and they did not want Camfield's illness to become widely known, lest it harm his career. What a solid group of dudes.

I don't even care if the 10/Donna rumors were true or not now, I'm WAY more excited for this.Big Finish posted:In addition to The War Doctor, November 2017 also sees a prequel box set to the saga, Doctor Who: The Eighth Doctor — The Time War, which will follow the early stages of the Time War from the Eighth Doctor’s perspective. Paul McGann stars, alongside characters first introduced in the War Doctor box sets.

The only completely DW-related release of theirs I've listened to was "Treasure Island" and it was a hoot (with Tom Baker as Long John Silver, how could it be anything else?). That said, a lot of their Doctor Who spin-off series are excellent and are only barely related to DW. Jago & Litefoot in particular might just be my favorite thing BF puts out.

Jerusalem posted:Let us know what it's like, I considered picking it up but I really figured it would be best to be more familiar with the pre-existing Jago and Litefoot stuff first. It sounds like a blast though. Having listened to J&L from "The Mahogany Murderers" up through series 5, it's pretty hard not to be charmed by the two lead actors right from the get-go. While you would almost certainly enjoy it more having listened to previous material, I'm sure it would still be a lot of fun regardless. edit: Also, I strongly recommend "Benjamin and Baxter", which is a two hour long interview with those guys, both separately and as a team. Christopher Benjamin (Jago) is pretty quiet and unassuming in real life but drat Trevor Baxter (Litefoot) is one hell of a storyteller.

After recently getting interested in learning about Shakespeare, I discovered that the Globe Theatre sells recordings of their productions at globeplayer.tv and the version of The Merry Wives of Windsor they've got stars none other than Henry Gordon Jago himself! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjpq6j-KvTo drat, if you want a good example of how Shakespeare isn't difficult to understand at all when performed by a good enough actor, that's one right there. edit: More Shakespeare!

Astroman posted:I gotta say, I'm really not down with Big Finish's new predilection to bundle everything into "collections" or seasons that cost $20. Sometimes I might want to try a new range or something a la carte, but you can ONLY buy audios like War Doctor, Jago and Litefoot, and the new Third Doctor audios as collections. Same for the Blake's 7 Liberator Chronicles. While this may not apply to all of the sets you're referring to, I think part of this might be because they're acquiring the rights to do all these new series, and with that comes actors with higher fees (no offense to Colin Baker, but I'd be willing to bet his fee is less than David Tennant's or John Hurt's, which is also probably why the War Doctor and 10th Doctor sets are 3 hours instead of the usual 4)

CommonShore posted:What second doctor reconstructions are worth watching? Last night I wasn't much in the mood to watch reconstructed stories in my "whole series*" run through, so I skipped anything marked "Recon", but then BOOM, I'm at The War Games (which is fun), and then to #3. I was shocked how few second doctor stories are complete. Is it only War Games and Tomb of the Cybermen? As far as reconstructions go, Power of the Daleks , Evil of the Daleks, and Fury From the Deep are probably the best. The Highlanders is worth it solely because it introduces Jamie but it'll also make you really mad because it contains lots of physical comedy gags that we'll never get to see.
