    Professor Dave tribute

    Here in podcast land, we lost one of our own recently. David Keep from Professor Dave's Ark in Space sadly passed away last week. Dave was loved in our community, a true unsung hero of the genre.  This is a re-upload from 2010, where Dave and his future wife, Elizabeth. Joined us to discuss the Doctor Who episode Midnight.  As this episode is nearly 13 years old, the sound quality may not be up to today's standards. But this is a very important episode for us here at Bad Wilf Towers, as Martyn explains in a newly recorded intro.  Our thoughts go out to Elizabeth. We love you, Dave.
