NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 206: "Timelash" Is Up!

 
"Should there be another day, I'll explain to you in great detail which of the many time laws I am not allowed to transgress."
"Who would know?"
"I would.  So would every other Time Lord from here to Gallifrey, and I can assure you they're not all as pleasant and agreeable as I am."
-- The Sixth Doctor and Herbert George Wells, Doctor Who: "Timelash"

Hello again, everyone!  My partner in time Jesse Jackson and I are back with a new episode of Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast!  This time, we discuss "Timelash", the fifth serial from Doctor Who Season 22 in 1985, featuring Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor, Nicola Bryant as Peri Brown, Robert Ashby as the Borad, Paul Darrow as Tekker, and David Chandler as H.G. Wells!

In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like being one week out from the U.S. Presidential election, my lowering the bar for Jesse watching "Timelash", Jo Jones referencing Karfel in The Sarah Jane Adventures story "Death of the Doctor", the original script featuring the First Doctor, Ian, Barbara, Susan, and the Daleks, the actual explanation for how the Sixth Doctor survived the destruction of the Bandril missile, the various references to H.G. Wells' novels, blaming Eric Saward and John Nathan-Turner for the failure of the Sixth Doctor era, one good reason why JNT doesn't suck, Jesse wanting people to use CGI to give Colin Baker a better Sixth Doctor costume, H.G. Wells being portrayed as an annoying buffoon, the Doctor spelunking into the Timelash, Jeananne Crowley not being able to find her line of sight even when talking to someone directly in front of her, good Doctor Who directors using shadows to conceal poorly-designed monsters, Peri escaping into the Karfel junk room you don't want anybody to see when they come over, the Morlox looking like Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, the creative mistake of making Peri a botanist, the sad Bandril puppet, Tekker being the guy at an office willing to throw anyone under the bus, Jesse wondering if the Borad was a previous villain, the Doctor taunting the Borad that he has zero chance hooking up with Peri, how to make the aged skeletons less comical, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from Holly Mac and Dave Proctor, Jesse listening to the new Bruce Springsteen album over and over and over, Xan and I discussing The Elephant Man, and more!
