The Doctor Who Show

The Doctor Who Show S01 E12

Rob and Dave normally discuss the past month in Doctor Who, but with this being a quieter month and the holiday season to boot, they mix up the formula a little.

Along the way, they cover:

– Listener feedback on Captain Mike Yates' appearance in Star Wars: Rogue One (as discussed on their Rogue One episode).

- Doctor Who merchandise including reprints of 1960s novels, Eaglemoss figurines, Robert Harrop figurines, and wargaming sets from Warlord Games.

- The Return of Doctor Mysterio, the first new episode of Doctor Who in 12 months. What did the guys think? Thumbs up or down?

- Top TV shows from childhood and why, including: Astro Boy, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, The Mysterious Cities of Gold, Monkey, Odysseus: The Greatest Hero of Them All, The Goodies, Press Gang, Star Blazers, Spellbinder, and Robotech.

Whotiques Roadshow – Planet of the Daleks (Target novelisation)

If you follow Rob Lloyd on Twitter you'll know his profile runs: Actor. Comedian. Hufflepuff. TimeLord. Problem Solver.

One thing it doesn't mention is podcaster and with the recent launch of the excellent Nerd Out podcast, Rob takes the opportunity to sit down with Rob and asks him to choose an item from his Doctor Who collection for the Whotiques Roadshow. Rob selects the Target novelisation of Planet of the Daleks. This leads the two on a discussion of the story itself, the Pertwee era, Rob's appreciation for Pertwee as a comedian with a desire to act and the Target novels in general. A lot of ground is covered during this half an hour.

This is a rebellion, isn't it? (The DW Show Presents: Rogue One)

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (or simply Rogue One) is a 2016 American epic space opera film directed by Gareth Edwards and written by Chris Weitz and Tony Gilroy, from a story by John Knoll and Gary Whitta. It is the first stand-alone film in the Star Wars Anthology series. Rogue One stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, Jiang Wen and Forest Whitaker, and follows Jyn Erso, the daughter of the unwilling designer of the Galactic Empire's superweapon, the Death Star, and her quest to retrieve his plans of destroying it.

Produced by Lucasfilm and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, the film is chronologically set between Revenge of the Sith (2005) and A New Hope (1977). Principal photography began at Elstree Studios near London during early August 2015 and wrapped in February 2016, with reshoots and additional filming taking place in mid-June 2016. Rogue One premiered in Los Angeles on December 10, 2016, and was released in the United States on December 16, 2016.
