  • Summary

  • When a mental health issue derails a planned guest, Shannon once again calls upon his good friend and Whovian mentor 'Trenchcoat Steve' Winsor, for another action-packed episode! In 'Doctor Who' news, the pair break down what major UK award the Jodie Whittaker Era of the series has recently won (and why winning 'any' awards in the last few years isn't a GOOD thing for the long-term creative health of the series!). A wonderfully charming and captivating short-film starring Sylvester McCoy, 'The Last Conjuror', is reviewed (as spoiler-free as possible, as it's really worth seeing!). The passing on March 4th, 2021 of former classic series guest-star and Big Finish Productions' own Celestial Toymaker voice actor David Bailie is discussed. Candy Jar Books' 'Lethbridge-Stewart' and 'Lucy Wilson Mysteries' spinoff ranges are featured. 


    In our main event, the 'Movies For Whovians Who Like Movies', they provide entertaining commentary with a focus on trivia and plot-holes of a double-feature that is sure to be a favourite film series of the Daleks themselves: 'The Exterminator' and 'The Exterminator 2'. Representative of the early-to-mid 1980's timeframe in which they were made, both films follow lanky 'everyman' vigilante, John Eastland. He's a Vietnam vet who seems to have his PTSD triggered whenever someone paralyses his loved ones...and yes, it happens more than once! Donning a motorcycle helmet (OK, 'once'), and then a welder's mask (mostly in re-shoots with a stunt double), Eastland leaves a pretty incriminating trail of death and destruction in his wake as he vows to clean up New York City (an occupation he seems to take breaks from for extended periods!). Join Steve and Shannon as they document two very different movies starring one very forgettable actor...oh, and Samuel L Jackson was in one, but neither host could ever 'find' him!
