"What are you going to do then? Blow them up?"
"They're just children. They can't help where they came from."
"Oh, well, that makes a change from last time. That Martha must've done you good."
"She did, yeah, she did...She fancied me."
"Mad Martha, that one. Blind Martha. Charity Martha."
-- Donna Noble and the Tenth Doctor, Doctor Who: "Partners in Crime"
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're joined by special guest companion Holly Mac as we provide our commentary track for "Partners in Crime", the first episode from Doctor Who Series Four in 2008, featuring David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor, Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, Bernard Cribbins as Wilfred Mott, and Sarah Lancashire as Ms. Foster!
In this episode, Jesse, Holly and I discuss things like watching "Partners in Crime" again after 200+ episodes, Jesse having a fresh perspective regarding Donna, why Holly picked this episode, Russell T Davies' decision to tone Donna down when making her an official companion, finally getting the Series 13 premiere date, the photo from Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill's last day of filming, Jesse not remembering that Rose makes a cameo in this episode, Wilf being a Top 5 recurring character and Sylvia being a Bottom 5, Penny Carter being an almost companion, Wilf almost being named "Stan", what RTD's script intended for Catherine Tate to mime, Ms. Foster's giving Penny her "eff you" face, the reference to the Cheetah Planet from "Survival", the Doctor's flux capacitor, Wilf and Donna bonding over Sylvia being horrible, Wilf being the grandfather that everybody deserves, Wilf's reverse Man Cave, Ms. Foster's sonic pen, Ms. Foster's Wile E. Coyote moment, Jesse's apology for ever thinking bad things about Catherine Tate as Donna Noble, the odds of Christopher Eccleston returning for the 60th anniversary now being worse with RTD's return as showrunner, my calling out Rachel Frend, new feedback from Dave Proctor, posting the schedule for the rest of 2021, Xan Sprouse returning to discuss "Rose" as a Revisited commentary, and more!
