TheSuffolkRam and Middlemeister meet up once again to discuss the recent three episodes of Doctor Who, The ‘Empress of Mars’, ‘The Eaters of light’ and ‘World Enough and Time’. Needless to say their are many SPOILERS, you have been warned.
We kick of by talking about ‘Empress of Mars’, another Mark Gatiss episode with B-Movie influences, we discuss the role of guest writers on arc episodes. What went wrong with the TARDIS, we talk about what we think of companion family’s and back stories and the remote possibility of us becoming one. We talk about references to previous series and if Mark Gatiss will continual writing episodes in the new series.
We then look at The Eaters of Light starting with a correction about the author. We then discuss the last of story of the old who era – Survival – and some of the charms of that era including bad cat animatronics. We talk about possible use of practical effects, and the humour of the episode, how often Doctor Who hits the reset button. our plans for how the fight cybermen including there involvement in the previous series.
We then come to ‘World Enough and Time’, what happen to the crew, BBC spoiling things and how HBO did better with Westworld, the origins of the next time trailer. the Horror of cybermen conversion. the return of John Simms master. Our liking of the concepts presented
Finally we close with discussing what we thinks going to happen in the finial of the series. The various Doctor’s regeneration’s and the lead up and location to the current Doctor’s. Actors who we believe will be the next Doctor, What the fate of Missy is and where her true loyalties lie, speculation on the Christmas episode, lack of support of Ram theory on Bill’s mother from the last discussion we did. We talk about the creator of the Daleks, Terry Nation, other good sci-fi series, a tv show that Middlemeister suffered through and Ram thankfully missed and was unaware of, and we forget who Alan Moore is.
Notes
One of the great cat animatronics from survival, as well as the 80s version of cat prosthetic’s with the cheetah people
