NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 261: "Legend of the Sea Devils" Is Up!

 
"I mean, that's the problem with history, never anything like the books. Same as Stephen King movies."
-- The Thirteenth Doctor, Doctor Who: "Legend of the Sea Devils"

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 DJ Nik to discuss "Legend of the Sea Devils", the 2022 Doctor Who Easter Special, featuring Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor, Mandip Gill as Yasmin "Yaz" Khan, John Bishop as Dan Lewis, and the return of the Sea Devils!

In this episode, Jesse, Nik and I discuss things like talking non-traditional pirates, continuing the tradition of Nik returning to discuss new Doctor Who episodes, the new 2022 Fall Special trailer featuring the return of Janet Fielding and Sophie Aldred as Tegan and Ace, wondering how Ashad the Lone Cybermen survived his convincing death, Nik getting an Unforgiven vibe from the episode, some fans raising their expectations for Jodie Whittaker's penultimate episode, the "Special" episode being shorter than some regular Doctor Who episodes, the previous two appearances of the Sea Devils, some historical background on Madame Ching AKA "Zheng Yi Sao, the Thirteenth Doctor using the Eleventh Doctor's "Geronimo!" catchphrase, wondering how Yaz and the Doctor were appropriately dressed for 1807 after the TARDIS was thrown off course from four centuries later, the great final scene between the Doctor and Yaz, the unfairness of Yaz having to suppress her feelings for the Doctor after being friendzoned, Dan and Diane possibly rekindling their would-be relationship, Madame Ching taking on Ying Ki as a crewman after killing his father, hoping Dan won't follow his pelvis, Madame Ching's character suffering because she was paired up with Dan instead of the Doctor, needing more backstory with Ji-Hun, the insane grammar schools on Gallifrey, Chris Chibnall wanting his Sea Devils to be faithful to the original series, the missed opportunity of not getting a "We're gonna need a bigger boat" reference, our favorite quotes of the episode, my quick Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from Holly from Wisconsin and Dave Proctor, talking the first War Doctor story set right after the regeneration in "The Night of the Doctor", and more!
