Doctor Who: Toby Hadoke’s Time Travels

Monologues about Doctor Who: not too serious or heavy, but something to be entertained by (hopefully) and to muse on (hopefully)...

This episode is examination of disability representation in Doctor Who, hopefully done with some insight and a lightness of touch. Not a lecture by any means - part history lesson, part anecdote, part observation, it hopefully sheds some light on a subject often overlooked or ignored. As ever though, the main intention is to amuse or divert ... albeit by doing a deep dive into the minutiae of a certain aspect of a particular television show about running a lot and sometimes blowing things up.

Trigger warning: Issues of disability is discussed, including some unpleasant experiences at the hands of others.

What an interesting and odd story - let's see what David J Howe, fan historian and publisher extraordinaire, likes about it so much. The shortest episode of Classic Doctor Who has - because of your chatty host Toby Hadoke - provoked one of the longest episodes of this podcast. But that's what happens when you weave the facts of fiction..

Yes, it's this one, the one with the chase. Not everyone loves the chase. But then again, not everyone loves The Chase and we had a ball with that on Happy Times and Places. So jump aboard whatever crazy vehicle you like and see if you can catch up with the most shambling villain in the show's history as he evades first Pat Gorman, and then a non actor who somehow wangled a few lines and a credit, and also the man who taught Kelvin Mackenzie to type. Oh it's all here, so have a cup of the second best coffee in the universe and come along for the ride with our wonderful special guest Annie Wallace who has recently been seen butting heads with host Toby on TV in Hollyoaks!!!!

OK, out of host Toby Hadoke's comfort zone again - here we are with some of the first ever Matt Smith stuff to be recorded. Oh yes, Toby remembers when Mr Smith was new - seems like yesterday! Joe Lewallen, a friend from across the Pond (not Amy), is a fabulous and fascinating guest, and instead of plugging something for you to purchase, he has asked to link to a very good cause, which we are more than happy to do:

The cliffhanger is a vital component to the success of Doctor Who, so come and take a journey through the high and lows, the anomalies and the usual ones, and a ponder on why we love them so much...
