[ 42:07 || 19.3 MB ] The above is from: http://www.earth-2.net/podcasts/biggeronth.../bigger_015.mp3 Listening now...very good again. About the Toymaker - The Nightmare Fair, which was planned for the 6th Doctor has now been recorded by Big Finish and will be released later this year - http://www.bigfinish.com/101-Doctor-Who-The-Nightmare-Fair he's also a character who's appeared in a lot of the spinoff media (in the New Adventures and the comic strips)...I think it would be fun to have him appear again. I'm trying to remember if we've seen other people opperating the TARDIS...I'm pretty sure Romana did, and Tegan seems to operate it in Castrovalva, but at the end it's revealed she didn't really do it. Can't remember anyone else. Have to say, I love the Gunfighters...it's interesting how fan opinion has changed over the years. Back in the late 70's and Early 80's, before videos, opinions on all these early stories were really formed by a few people writing reference books (Peter Haining, John Peel), and the fans writing for Doctor Who Magazine and the fanzines. And the opinion from all of these was that "Celestial Toymaker" was an absolute classic, and "The Gunfighters" was undoubtedly the worst Doctor Who story ever made. And now we can see/hear these stories, opinion has changed on both and Toymaker's reputation has plummeted, while Gunfighters is a lot more well regarded now.

Missy Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 With just a little help from The Doctor, Donna flew the TARDIS in The Sontaran Stratagem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darque Edge Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Turlough seemed to know his way around it in 'The Five Doctors', but couldn't fly it. I was wondering if you'd get the Alfred connection - you may not know that Gough(sp) was also one of the main protaganists in the first Christopher Lee 'Dracula' movie. Great show, though. What's your spoiler policy with regards to rumours in future series? For example, since you did this, some casting things have been confirmed for the last episode, and on some levels, I'd hate to have them spoiled.

Mr Mockery Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Adric piloted the TARDIS for a short journey in The Visitation and in general was pretty familiar with how it all worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
