NEXT STOP EVERYWHERE 370: "Doctor Who: The Movie -- Regenerated" Is Up!

 
"Gallifrey! Yes! This must be where I live. Now, where is that?"
"I've never heard of it! What do you remember?"
"A meteor storm...The sky above us was dancing with lights! Purple, green, brilliant yellow... Yes!"
"What?!"
"These shoes! They fit perfectly, yessssss!"
-- The Eighth Doctor and Dr. Grace Holloway, Doctor Who: The Movie

Hello again, everyone! My partner in time Jesse Jackson and I celebrate the Eighth Doctor's 30th anniversary by regenerating our discussion of Doctor Who: The Movie, the 1996 TV movie, introducing Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor, and featuring Sylvester McCoy as the Seventh Doctor, Eric Roberts as the Fourth Master, and Daphne Ashbrook as Dr. Grace Holloway!

In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like Jesse having to give up on a Bruce Springsteen concert, originally discussing Doctor Who: The Movie in our 20th episode eleven years ago, Jesse not caring for the TV movie less the second time around, the TV movie being the 30th anniversary of the first Doctor Who story I would've missed if I had died on the operating table, my getting new Doctor Who for the first time in seven years after the original series was cancelled, Eric Roberts as Sal Maroni in The Dark Knight, Will Sasso as Curly in the 2012 Three Stooges revival, crediting executive producer Philip Segal for insisting on Sylvester McCoy instead of Tom Baker as the Doctor in the opening of the movie, BBC One Controller Alan Yentob and executive producer Jo Wright being dicks about Sylvester McCoy returning, Fox's stupid decision to schedule Doctor Who: The Movie against the series finale of ABC's Roseanne, the Eighth Doctor continuing through Doctor Who Magazine comics, novels and Big Finish audio dramas, the TV movie being the first time the Doctor is shown kissing a woman, the return of the Doctor's sonic screwdriver, the Seventh Doctor being different from the last time we saw him in "Survival", my being glad that the Seventh Doctor got an ending and a regeneration scene, the TV movie using "Un Bel di Vedremo" from Giacomo Puccini's Madama Butterfly and making me an opera fan, Grace unintentionally killing the Doctor and performing surgical manslaughter, the moment Paul McGann truly became the Doctor, Jesse's loving of Hallmark TV movies, the Master's new serpentine abilities, wishing a stronger actor had been cast as the Master instead, wishing Grace and Lee had the chance to continue as the Eighth Doctor's companions, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Reverse the Polarity segment, new listener feedback from Dave Proctor and Holly Mac, giving Jesse his props for powering through our recording, and more!
