Still floating on air from spending an hour with Suzy Eddie Izzard on #InConversation. We spoke about her extraordinary one-person Hamlet, stand-up, acting, politics, coming out as trans, and a career built on persistence, reinvention and wit. This is one to listen to! Links below.

Helllo Everyone!!! This week Mr @nathanbottomley.com joins me to talk all about the last 5 seconds of Logopolis (and the rest of it too). #MATHS! #DoctorWho

I love hanging out with Luke and talking about the Doctor Who of my childhood. And Logopolis basically gets better every time I watch it. Off to water the garden and listen to the two of us wittering on.

Listening to @maximumpowerpodcast.com and the campaign for the next Blu Ray set to have a “Disco outro” option on the theme music starts here.

The 70s have come roaring back on Moonbase Alpha — with a séance, some dank hydroponic weed, and a beardo hippy and his Coral Electric Sitar. All of which inevitably summons a paranormal phenomenon intent (as always) on killing everyone on the base. #Space1999 startlingbarbarabain.com/22

In a novelty store-cum-surgery-cum-graveyard, Richard's popping a cracker up a ladder, Steven's exploiting a mine in an unexpected way, and Brendan's walking off a wrestling-related concussion. It's Annette Andre's first appearance in #TheAvengers, Mandrake. #podcast open.spotify.com/episode/73G0...

Now listened to all of @flightthroughentirety.com's 500 Yr Diary on Children of Earth. I certainly agree it's probably the best collective thing RTD made in the Dr Who suite. Some perspectives I hadn't considered before. So a very interesting listen.

It's the end of the week, and although some kids and a whole building full of public servants are dead, we all learn that even the ones who walk away from Omelas discover that the real Omelas was inside them all along. #DoctorWho #Torchwood 500yeardiary.com/s4/e5

Anyway should've just given them the kids who were unconvincing in crowd scenes.

Tonight, John Frobisher’s relationship with the 456 deteriorates, while Captain Jack Harkness's day starts with humiliation and ends with death. In contrast, the British PM and his advisors are unusually active and productive, which is a worry. #DoctorWho 500yeardiary.com/s4/e4/

Tonight, Jack finally works out why everyone wants to kill him (and it's not the reason you might expect), while mere miles away the 456 arrive in Thames House and immediately run up an upsettingly large cleaning bill. #DoctorWho 500yeardiary.com/s4/e3

My production of The Importance of Being Earnest closes this week. Tickets are still available for Wednesday ($25 all tix) Friday, and two shows Saturday. Come see what our rave reviews are about! And yes, that moustache is real. www.trybooking.com/events/14773... #theatre #Sydney #OscarWilde

an honor to be invited back on @flightthroughentirety.com's "500 year diary" for ep 2 of "torchwood: children of earth." grateful to @simonmoore.bsky.social, @johnnyspandrell.bsky.social, and @nathanbottomley.com for being such welcoming, tremendous interlocutors! 500yeardiary.com/s4/e2/

The 456 said they’d drop round this evening, so while we wait, we chat with @johnnyspandrell.bsky.social and @melvinpena.bsky.social about villains, childlessness, and whether Torchwood really is appropriate viewing for adults. #DoctorWho #Torchwood 500yeardiary.com/s4/e2

this is so good; i miss @flightthroughentirety.com when it's on hiatus. it's really the gold standard of "doctor who" universe podcasting, and i'm grateful to have had an excuse to rewatch the astonishing "torchwood: children of earth"

It was so much fun going back to this era.

After 44 years, the 456 are coming back, but before they get here there’s a fair amount of setting up to do. First, remind us how scary and weird children are; second, introduce us to a troupe of amazing new actors; and third, blow up the entire show. #DoctorWho #Torchwood 500yeardiary.com/s4/e1

omg, i knew i forgot something when i podcasted about #torchwood: children of earth with the @flightthroughentirety.com crew last weekend. the persistence of memory and the ianto shrine. incredible it lasted this long, literally since COE first aired!

This month, executive interference turns a simple tale of mutual trust in a universe full of life and purpose into a bleak story of shooting a benevolent but defenceless cosmic intelligence through the brain. Still, we did enjoy the foam party on the way. #Space1999 startlingbarbarabain.com/21

Make a Myrka Great Again? - The Trap One crew convene for reactions to the BFI #DrWho #WarriorsOfTheDeep screening so fresh that their paint hasn't dried yet! Podbean: tinyurl.com/uh6a62hr Spotify: tinyurl.com/2xdc7r8z Apple: tinyurl.com/mr2ku24a

i had the loveliest time talking about "torchwood: children of earth" with the @flightthroughentirety.com crew for "500-year diary" this evening. it's a brutal, but timely, watch in 2026. thanks to @nathanbottomley.com, @simonmoore.bsky.social, and @johnnyspandrell.bsky.social for having me!

John Koenig awakens on an island full of noises, sounds and sweet airs, where he meets Peter Cushing and his amazing hat. Meanwhile, back on the base, Helena, Victor and Paul decide that killing the Commander would significantly improve everyone’s mood. #Space1999 startlingbarbarabain.com/20

In a brand new thread for Hamster, Joe & @danielrawnsley.bsky.social will be watching and celebrating The Sarah Jane Adventures. How smart, funny, silly, intelligent and mature this series can be… podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/a...

a true original! i'm still so thrilled i got to sit down with the @flightthroughentirety.com gang and chat about "horror of fang rock" recently. what a story that is! an all-time, all-world "doctor who" classic! 500yeardiary.com/s3/e3/

In honour of the late Marcus Gilbert, here’s @flightthroughentirety.com‘s Battlefield ep. Thanks Marcus (and Nick and Jean). This theme arrangement by @cameronlam.bsky.social also remains my favourite, mainly for his sensational rendition of the middle eight. flightthroughentirety.com/125/

New podcast just dropped. The Entirety of Flight Through Entirety combines our four Doctor Who podcasts into one convenient feed: every single Doctor Who story discussed, analysed and lovingly mocked for your enjoyment. Sometimes more than once. #DoctorWho theentiretyof.flightthroughentirety.com

This month, Helena is abducted by an alien probe which inserts things into her brain, giving Barbara the chance to try out a bewildering array of new facial expressions. It's Ring Around the Moon *snigger*. #Space1999 startlingbarbarabain.com/19

Jolly good chat about a cracking good book. #DoctorWho

This was so much fun!
