A podcast pub crawl through Doctor Who old and new with film programmer Mark Donaldson and stand-up comic Ben Verth

    In The Timelash #2 - Mark Donaldson

    In The Timelash #2 - Mark Donaldson

    Mark is next up to submit five things they don’t like about Doctor Who to be thrown In the Timelash. 
    It's a wide-ranging discussion that takes in some heavy topics, the brave new world of online fandom, worldwide release windows, and whether a delivery driver can scale the height of Colin Baker's gate. 
    Will all five of Mark's choices get sent on a one-way trip to the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Ness? And when was the last time that Britain was truly great?

    In The Time Lash #1 - Ben Verth

    In The Time Lash #1 - Ben Verth

    In the first of a brand new series, the Lash Lads invite guests to submit five things they don't like about Doctor Who to be thrown In the Time Lash.

    Tired tropes, ill-informed cultural myths, and fan "wisdom" all come under scrutiny as we discuss the things we never want to hear ever again.

    In the first episode, stand-up comedian and On the Time Lash co-host Ben Verth submits the five Doctor Who things he wants to send on holiday with H.G. Wells. But will it be Ben and Mark that get binned by the end?

    Norman Wisdom vs. The Space Nazis (Daleks in Colour)

    Norman Wisdom vs. The Space Nazis (Daleks in Colour)

    To celebrate the release of The Daleks in Colour on Bluray and DVD this week, Ben and Mark are joined once again by Mark Harrison to discuss how well it updates a 1965 classic, and what it has in common with Peter Cushing's Dr. Who & the Daleks movie
    Why is Peter Cushing's non-canon Doctor Who movie the definitive telling of the first encounter with the Daleks? And will Benjamin Cook's choppily edited version for the TikTok generation ever topple Milton Subotsky's technicolour marvel?
    Also: What is the Del Boy falling through the bar of Doctor Who? Which 1960s companion was one of 30 names attached to be the next James Bond after Sean Connery? Is the colourised Daleks just the different birthday cake to ruin?

    The Eight Wankers

    The Eight Wankers

    To celebrate 60 years of Doctor Who, On the Time Lash, Too Hot For TV, The Polis Box, and I Hate Doctor Who are sent to the Degsestial Death Zone for a battle of wills against the fearsome Degsestial Funmaker and Lord Harrison. 

    As the four podcasts quiz for their very lives, they answer the big questions: What happens if you put Tom Baker's top set and David Tennant's bottom set of teeth in the same mouth? Who's the Glam Rock nonce?  What's better, Black Orchid or The King's Demons? 

    With apologies to Michael Elphick.

    Colin's Wispy Chest

    Colin's Wispy Chest

    Continuing their celebrations of Doctor Who's 60th anniversary, Ben and Mark take a sideways and boozy trip into the divergent universe of BBV.

    Exploring the 30th anniversary of Doctor Who's 30th anniversary, they tackle the de facto multi-Doctor story: The Airzone Solution.

    After inevitably recoiling at the love scene, they discuss whether Woody Allen has seen The Airzone Solution, and ponder who's getting it on in the big budget 30th anniversary remake.  

    You can hear Dylan and Mark get lost in the Dark Dimension here.

    146: Uncle Winky Was Right

    146: Uncle Winky Was Right

    "I was the fan, and I enjoyed being serviced"
    After a decade, Ben and Mark bring On the Time Lash's NuWho Watchthrough to an end with a discussion of The Power of Doctor, paired up with Big Finish's wildly experimental 40th anniversary audio adventure - Zagreus.
    And since it's the end, Ben and Mark discuss the big issues:
    How to lend gravitas to the name Uncle Winky, why The Power of the Doctor is a pitch-perfect satire of modern fandom, a celebration of Sacha Dhawan's Master, the meaning of an empty chair, why Paul McGann doesn't wear robes, the impossibility of explaining the plot of Zagreus, and a lament for when Big Finish took big swings.
    And what is the imbecile/Icini conundrum?
