  • 443: Philip Hinchcliffe discusses the inside of the TARDIS
    2024/09/11
    We've had a few weeks' rest and recuperation but we're now back with a rare pleasure: former Doctor Who producer Philip Hinchcliffe (1974-1977)!

    There is a bit of a story behind this one. Back in 2018, Gareth Kavanagh invited James McLean and Christian Cawley to do some live podcasting and panel interviews at the VworpCon event, held at the PrintWorks in Manchester.

    Philip Hinchcliffe was supposed to be one of several guests on a panel discussing the TARDIS and its evolution throughout Doctor Who's history, but on the day the dice didn't roll quite as planned.

    As a result, James ended up with just Philip Hinchcliffe, along with a few technical challenges. However, thanks to AI audio fixes and judicious editing by Christian, we've ended up with quite an interesting - and rare - chat with Philip, who gives some quite unique answers and stories on a topic that he doesn't usually get drawn on.

    Enjoy!

  • 442: How Doctor Who events have evolved over the decades
    2024/08/21
    Over the past few years, we've had the chance to attend all manner of Doctor Who events. It's fair to say that the whole world of conventions and interactive experiences has evolved considerably.

    From Dimensions 2005 to VworpCon in 2018, and The Crash of the Elysium to Escape Hunt: A Dalek Awakens, we've been very fortunate to have attended a whole host of different events. They have covered different sizes of venues, different types of guests, and offered a wealth of differing experiences.

    This week, Christian Cawley and James McLean discuss how Doctor Who events have evolved over the decades. We also discuss A Dalek Awakens, an escape room experience in Norwich, which James was fortunate enough to visit recently.

    2024/08/14
    n this week's show, Christian Cawley and James McLean face off with their preferred fantasy streaming shows. In the Black corner, Christian is in favour of House of the Dragon... in the Elf corner, it's James, with Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

    Which is the best show? Why have Christian and James settled on those shows and not the others? And does James really care whether Christian watches The Rings of Power?

    Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr as Dr Doom? A Doctor Who spin-off with an incredibly long name? XXXXX XXXXX as Johnny Storm? It can only be the reveals at San Diego Comic Con 2024, and we're here to try and make sense of it all.

    Gareth joins Christian Cawley and James McLean to discuss Go Figure!, and recall a shared adventure at a convention 6 years ago...
