A Doctor Who Podcast
It’s All Hallows Eve Eve! And so to celebrate we are having a double feature of 2 scary episodes!
Join @TravelVortex, @VortexShaun, @VortexGlenn & @VortexKeith as we press play at Midnight CDT on Blink & Listen!
Since it won’t be as easy for everyone to play them back to back, we will have a 5 minute intermission between episodes.
And as always keep an eye out for the hashtags #FridayNightWho & #Blink & #Listen
So here we are, five episodes into Series 8. I guess you could say we’re “In The Thick Of It”.
SEE WHAT I DID THERE?!? HA!
An update to the schedule follows:
Friday Night Who on 10/23 is Tom Baker in “The Face Of Evil”.
Which hopefully pairs up well with our topic for TTV #252, “The Woman Who Lived” but we’ll also share our thoughts in a SPOILER FREE REVIEW of the newest (and just released) Candy Jar Books publication, Lethbridge-Stewart: Beast Of Fang Rock by Andy Frankham-Allen. And thanks to the author and publisher, we’ll have a couple of copes to GIVE AWAY to our listeners on the show!!! Thanks so much to them for this opportunity, and if you’d like to win one, BE SURE TO LISTEN!
FNW 10/30 – While we originally planned to do “Day Of The Doctor” (again) we decided to have a little Halloween since it’s this weekend. So instead, Tune in for “Blink” and “Listen” respectively.
TTV #253 will be our review of “The Zygon Invasion”.
And what’s a Zygon invasion without their first appearance? Join us on 11/6 for “Terror Of The Zygons” for Friday Night Who just before
TTV #254 – “The Zygon Inversion”.
Here’s where it gets tricky. FNW 11/13 is “Love & Monsters” to tie in to the unique filming nature of a Doctor light episode…
Which should compliment our topic in Traveling The Vortex episode #255, “Sleep No More”.
FNW 11/20 is another new series affair, last season’s “Flatline”.
Because Rigsy makes a return appearance in “Face The Raven”, the topic of TTV #256.
Beyond that? Well, I’m still hedging my bets on the finale. I have a few ideas, but I’d hate to spoil anyone. We’ll keep you posted!
The weeping angels are back!
Join us for this week’s Friday Night Who, “Blink” starring tenth Doctor David Tennant. We push play at midnight, CDT. It’s a live Tweet-A-Long of course, so make sure to follow @travelvortex, @VortexKeith, @vortexshaun and @vortexglenn for all the fun (and maybe make a new friend or two or ten!)
Look for the #FridayNightWho and #Blink hashtags. We’ll see you there!
Now that the powers that be over at BBC and BBC America have gotten off their collective tookus and announced season seven of Doctor Who, we can reveal our plans for scheduling as well. (Mild spoilers ahead if you’ve been avoiding episode titles…)
As previously stated, TONIGHT’s Friday Night Who (8/24) features Sylvester McCoy in “The Greatest Show In The Galaxy”. Hope you can join us, we push play at midnight.
Our next show (#87) we’ll record once Keith returns from holiday (and there is a STRONG possibility that we’ll be posting it late depending on when he and Sarah return, but we’ll discuss “The Greatest Show In The Galaxy”, the wedding. Oh, and we’ll talk about the episode too.
Next Friday 8/31 Jon Pertwee returns to the Friday Night Who schedule in “Day Of The Daleks”.
SEPTEMBER 1st, SERIES SEVEN STARTS
TTV #88 is our sixth Dalek Archive, and we’ll talk “Day Of The Daleks” and the new “Asylum Of The Daleks”
On 9/7 another Pertwee hits Friday Night Who with “Invasion Of The Dinosaurs”.
Traveling The Vortex #89 will be our reviews of “Invasion Of The Dinosaurs” and episode two of the new series, “Dinosaurs On A Spaceship”. (Picking up on our theme yet?)
FNW on 9/14 is William Hartnell in “The Gunfighters”.
TTV #90 takes on a distinct western theme, as we’ll talk local sci-fi convention Con-X, and our thoughts on “The Gunfighters”, and episode 3 of season 7, “A Town Called Mercy”.
Friday Night Who (9/21) jumps back to the seventh Doctor era with Sylvester McCoy in “Battlefield”.
And episode #91 covers what are supposed to be UNIT stories with “Battlefield” and “The Power Of Three”.
FNW 9/28 welcomes back David Tennant in the first Weeping Angel story, “Blink”
And on Traveling The Vortex #93 we’ll bid the Ponds Farewell and discuss “The Angels Take Manhattan”
With the end of the new series (at least until Christmas) our Friday Night Who on 10/5 has Peter Davison pay a visit with “The Visitation”
TTV #93 is all about the Doctor’s “get out of jail free card”, the sonic screwdriver. We’ll talk “The Visitation” and more.
On the horizon? That’s for me to know and you all to find out!
