NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 156: "Turn Left" is Up!


"That doctor."
"You knew him."
"Did I?  When?"
"I think you dream about him sometimes.  There’s a man in a suit.  Tall, thin man.  Great hair.  Some…really great hair."
-- Donna Noble and Rose Tyler, Doctor Who: "Turn Left"

Hello again, everyone!  Special guest companion Holly Mac from The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast returns to Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast to help me discuss "Turn Left", the eleventh episode of Doctor Who Series 4 in 2008, featuring David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor, Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, and Bernard Cribbins as Wilfred Mott!

In this episode, Holly and I discuss things like Doctor-lite vs. Doctor Light, how "Turn Left" appealed to Holly, Donna winning over Holly, Wilf being the best grandpa ever, waiting for the big Cosmic Reset Button after Donna's memories of traveling with the Doctor are removed, Russell T. Davies announcing his departure and the ambiguity over David Tennant's departure, the plan for the return of Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, more of Doctor Who companion mothers being horrible, Chipo Chung as Chantho, Wilf favoring his granddaughter over his actual daughter, wondering how Sylvia turned out the way she did, Rule 2 of Doctor Who, the Fortune Teller persuading Donna to take the road not taken, wondering why the Doctor can't regenerate if he drowns, Holly's momentary panic about seeing the Doctor die, Wilf realizing how bad "labor camps" can be, Sylvia sliding into depression, the alternate outcomes of previous Doctor Who episodes, the Trickster never appearing on Doctor Who, Rose guiding Donna toward restoring the original timeline, the awkward moment when Donna materialized two miles away from meeting herself with only two minutes to change things, Donna's self-sacrifice to reset the timeline and free herself from the Time Beetle, the moment when the Doctor realizes that Donna met Rose, the return of Bad Wolf graffiti, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from David K. Proctor, Holly's fellow Five(ish) Fangirl Rachel Frend, and more!
