Show 20 is now available to download, in which we examine the final story from the very first series of Doctor Who. This six part story was first broadcast in 1964, and (as we explain in the show) this was a first for us – it was the first incomplete story that we watched. The complete episodes (1, 2, 3 and 6) were watched on the original BBC VHS video release (remember them?) and the missing episodes were listened to from the BBC Audio Books release (narrated by Carole Ann Ford).
As a result of the significance of this very first series, the next episode will be a discussion of that first series as a whole. We probably won’t be doing this every season (as that would add about two years onto the project!!!)
Show 20 is available to download by clicking here.
As usual, there are various places you can leave us feedback: you can leave comments on the Show 20 thread on our Facebook Group, or you can visit our forum and leave comments there.
As for the next couple of months, here is our tentative schedule for May and June:
14th May: Doctor Who (Series 1 Overview)
28th May: Timeslip 3 (The Year of the Burn Up)
11th June: WIthnail and I
25th June: Doctor Who (Planet of Giants)
It is unlikely that this schedule will change, however should something significant happen (or we forget a 20th Anniversary again!!!) then we may juggle things slightly.
See you in two weeks!
Is anybody else having problems grabbing this episode? it won’t download in my podcatcher and the direct link on the website isn’t working for me.
Hi Vanamonde,
Just tested the link myself it’s working fine. Have another go, if you are still struggling let us know and we can try transferring it direct to you via Skype or MSN.
Thx, managed to get the episode from the website.
