Radio Free Skaro #1074 – The Happy Days-verse

Download MP3

It’s a bumper crop of news this week despite a complete lack of Doctor Who…except for Circuit Breaker, which begins by way of an online game where you join UNIT! Plus a fine interview with Steven Moffat on the Whoniverse Show, some fine Big Finish Zaprudering, and some truly insane talk about both a possible (but thankfully never followed up on) Doctor Who-Star Trek crossover and a deep investigation into the Happy Days animated universe! Don a leather jacket and say “Wonzie” with us!

   SARAH JANE: Doctor, you’re being childish!
   THE DOCTOR: Well, of course I am! There’s no point in being grown-up if you can’t be childish sometimes.

Terrance Dicks (1935-2019) English screenwriter, author [pseud. Robin Bland]
Doctor Who (1963), 12×01 “Robot,” Part 4 (1975-01-18)

@mrsjmccrimmon In these trying times: "What we all need is a sense of unity", to quote the #DoctorWho episode Carnival of Monsters, the book of which #TerranceDicks was kind enough to sign for me when he came to #TimeLash convention. The Doctor provides that, all the way to 13, 14 and 15.

Thinking of Jon Pertwee as #DoctorWho today.

"#Bessie, the Doctor’s little yellow roadster, shot along the narrow country lane with the Doctor at the wheel. He cut a colourful figure in his elegant burgundy smoking jacket, ruffled shirt and flowing cloak." — #TerranceDicks, The Time Monster

I've messed about a bit more with Target Books covers, this time speculating about what a Meglos reissue would look like in the modern style

More complicated than it looks, as there's no picture of Meglos looking forward and/or holding the Dodecahedron like that.

Listening to #TerranceDicks #PeterMiles #RichardFranklin #RichardMorris and #PaddyRussell chatting about Invasion of the Dinosaurs - a very much underrated Pertwee story.
