Advertise on podcast: Rambling Through Eternity - Sarah and David's Doctor Who journey

First broadcast on 8 February and 15 February 1964. The TARDIS is in meltdown and very strange things happen aboard. Our patience is tested with two very long, extremely absurd episodes! We get excited by TARDIS wardrobe options. Sarah wishes this story was more like RTD’s claustrophobic Midnight but loves learning about Billy Fluffs. David finds fault with the fault locator. Mind those scissors Susan! And we hope that Marco Polo eventually finds his way home.  Firsts: (and hopefully last!) stuck in the TARDIS episode, the TARDIS as a living organism, threat of TARDIS explosion 

First broadcast from 21 December 1963 to 1 February 1964.The TARDIS lands on the planet Skaro and we meet the two indigenous races - the peaceful Thals and the warlike Daleks! Barbara and Ian’s kidnapping continues on a new planet. The Doctor shows his cheeky side amongst the Ancient Greek gods.  We discuss the ultimate dalek kitchen, how they dislike fairground rides and how their projects are giving HS2 vibes. We deal with themes of pacifism and how picking flowers on a dead planet is very sketchy.  And get ready for a thrilling impression from David. Warning: this episode contains much more feet-chat than you’d expect.  Firsts: Our favourite baddies, a MacGuffin, a countdown and mercury

The first ever episode of Doctor Who broadcast from 23 November to 14 December 1963. A spooky girl in a scrapyard and a stone age Macbeth production. It’s quite an opener and a lot more than a couple of teachers doing a welfare check could have ever imagined. Grandfather has some sinister vibes and enjoys a spot of light kidnapping. We worry about how dangerous TARDIS furniture is in an (inevitable) crash. We love the clever camera work and music. David loves Barbara especially her wonderful robust hairdo. Sarah enjoys the burning skulls but is already bothered by all the shrieking. Oh dear.   Firsts: All the firsts, including “It’s bigger on the inside!” 

Classic Doctor Who fan David Evans-Powell guides Sarah Kennedy, who only knows the show from the 2005 revival, through all the episodes. Join us in 1963 and get set to relive your favourite adventures in time and space. If you’re a curious fan of the new era, like Sarah, we’ll be your companions through all the classic adventures. Putting the stories in some cultural context, we discuss the artistry, the acting and the innovations, and highlight the incredible work done on a shoestring budget. And we find plenty to laugh about. Let's go!
