Drunken Whocast 3
At long last, here is Drunken Whocast 3.
Myself, Daniel, James, and Kit, gathered on Skype to discuss Series 3 while getting progressively sozzled. This time we avoided getting drawn into speculations about the orgasms of prominent right-wingers, but still managed to fly off in all sorts of irrelevant and awful directions. Many things were said, with all the authority of drunk white guys, that were very wrong – in both senses. (The actual libels have been removed – even the true ones.) Even so, there’s a fair bit of good, solid Doctor Who talk here. We all find Series 3 pretty interesting, it seems.
I must apologise for my posts being sporadic at the moment. I’m desperately trying to finish off some other (non-postable) projects while coping with a real life that is increasing frantic on both a work and personal level. I’m grateful to all of you for being patient – and especially to those Patreon sponsors of mine who are, at the moment, basically giving me money for nothing. Bless you all. If you want to give me money for nothing, go here.
Here, by the way, are the Patreons of James and Kit. And here’s Phil’s/Eruditorum Press’s. Daniel doesn’t have one yet, but I’m sure he’ll figure out a way for you to give him money if you want to. Just in case you felt like sponsoring people who are actually producing stuff at the moment.

Have just started listening, and if my Patreon cash is going towards the Shakespeare joke Jack made at 01:04:12 I think it’s money well spent Really enjoying this

Loving it so far.
Shakespeare Code was the first NuWho episode I watched where I thought “that was awful, I don’t think I’ll rewatch that tomorrow.” For nerdy old 17 year old me, not rewatching an episode the next day was a big deal.
I eventually got back to it a few years later and fell asleep.

Have I missed it, or has anyone ever noticed that there’s a thematic link between the Moods, especially “Forget,” and the motorists’ use of religion as a comfort, and the Doctor’s use of lying about what happened to Gallifrey for the same purpose. It’s not a “just say no” thing at all…or maybe that’s just me.

I, for one, loved the human dalek sec costume/prosthetic from day 1. It looked like Scaroth. Therefore it was good.

Accurate. Though I expect the formula will shift somewhat come Season 5.
In related news, I’m still really, really tired. :/

Wrong – the single greatest shot in Doctor Who is a toss-up between Adric on top of the TARDIS in Logopolis or Turlough crawling away from the gravity well in Enlightenment. You’re welcome.
