Trust Your Doctor: A Doctor Who Podcast

Redux 2: It Is I, British Man (The Space Pirates)

Listen

Description

It's me, the newest superhero!

I'm not saying that we've engaged in time piracy, stealing Doctor Who from the present then talking about it in the past and then having the show recreate the show from our podcast, but I'm not saying that we didn't either. Why didn't Bo Holmes write a story about Time Pirates instead? That would have been way more interesting. We were right all along. It's The Space Pirates. Written by Robert Holmes and aired between March 8 and April 12, 1969.

Show-notes:


23:24: Check out our Blake's 7 podcast, Zenith: A Blake's 7 Podcast.
28:57: Apparently it's just a myth that the navy has more aircraft than the air force. At least according this Business Insider article from 2015 about debunking military myths.
33:30: Here's Bob Saget's take on the "The Aristocrats" joke.
1:17:15: Ben Steed's first story on Blake's 7 was Harvest of Kairos.
1:23:04: Pretty sure the movie I was thinking of here was The Box.
