196 - The Ambassadors of Death in Paradise May 15, 2019

Show notes

Season 7 continues with a 7-episode story -- like it was tailor-made for our 7&7 series! Join Deb, Erika, and Lizbeth as we discuss this story, which only one of us had already seen in its entirety! (Hint: It was the one of us who WROTE A BOOK ABOUT IT.)

What do you think of this story? Is it cinematic? Boring? Something in between? And did "received fan wisdom" tell you anything about it before you watched? Let us know in the comments!

Happy things:

Liz gets back to listening to Lazy Doctor Who!
Erika loves Karen Gillan's performance as Nebula in Avengers: Endgame!
Deb laps up Doctor Who rumors and hopes for a Christmas episode in 2019!

Extra! - Who Complete Three May 08, 2019

Show notes

We haven't played "Who Complete Me" since 2017, and it's high time we brought it back. Sadly, people who search for things on the internet haven't gotten any less ridiculous since then.

Special thanks to Steve Lutz of Low Definition for inventing this ridiculous game!

195 - Fly to the Angels Take Manhattan May 01, 2019

Show notes

This week we're back to series 7a, and we finish it off! Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we discuss the final episode with Amy and Rory. Is it a well-constructed send-off? Does it even make sense? Do we really care? Are the feels more important?

What do you think about this ep? Let us know in the comments!

Happy things:

Liz
- wrote The Astrea Conspiracy!
- wrote some words in Doctor Who Magazine!
Lynne picked up some 13th Doctor comics!
Erika picked up the Dr. Thirteenth Mr. Men book!
Deb rediscovered that she bought a Humble Bundle including a bunch of great stories from Big Finish!

Extra! - AVA, the Sevens Edition Apr 24, 2019

Show notes

Ok, so the "sevens" thing is a total stretch, but we make it work. Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we answer questions provided by you, the listeners, who "Ask Verity Anything"!

Have questions for a future AVA session? The comment section here is the best place to put them. Even if you've already tweeted them at us, it wouldn't hurt to put them here too because we don't always see everything that comes at us on social media. We look forward to your questions in the comments!

194 - Delta and the Bannermen Behaving Badly Apr 17, 2019

Show notes

It's 7th Doctor time again! Join Deb, Katrina, and Tansy as they talk about the kitschy fiftiesness that makes up "Delta and the Bannermen". Sadly for Erika, she watched the story and was too unwell to make it onto the podcast.

How do you feel about this story? Let us know in the comments!

Special thanks to our guest editor for this episode, Steven Schapansky of Castria!

Happy things:

Kat likes that Jodie Whittaker's replacement on Trust Me is a Doctor Who nerd!
Tansy is still firmly on the Big Finish train and enjoys The Diary of River Song Series 02!
Deb is amused that Jenna Coleman nicked a number of things from the Doctor Who set!

Extra! - Seven Comfanions Apr 10, 2019

Show notes

Remember back in Episode 66 when Deb accidentally coined the term "comfanion" for a companion-that-never-was-but-we-wish-they-were? Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we each pick seven guest stars we wish would have joined the TARDIS team. (Or in Lynne's case, seven characters the internet picked for her!)

Which seven comfanions would be on your list? Let us know in the comments!

193 - The Idiot's Lantern Down for What Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

It's another "lucky 7"! Join Deb, Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we discuss the seventh episode of series two, "The Idiot's Lantern". This story didn't age as well as some of us hoped, but it does leave us with a lot to talk about.

How do you feel about this episode? Let us know in the comments!

Happy things:

Lynne met David Tennant!!!
Tansy continues her dive into Big Finish with The Eighth of March!
Erika admires how the vendors like PixelWho, ATB, and others have banded together online after the cancellation of ReGeneration Who!
Deb is excited about Big Finish bringing four Masters together in Ravenous 4!

Where would you go? Let us know in the comments!

192 - Verity Podcast and the Silurians Mar 20, 2019

Show notes

We're beginning our 7&7 dive into season 7 -- the 3rd Doctor's first season! We already covered "Spearhead from Space" back in ep 116, so it's time for some Silurians. Join Erika, Katrina, and Lizbeth as we talk about Jon Pertwee's Doctor; Liz Shaw's clothing; the relationships between the Doc, Liz, and the Brig; and the ethics of destroying a bunch of sleeping reptiles.

What are your thoughts on this story? And do you know where to find any clothing like Liz Shaw's? Let us know in the comments!

Happy things:

Liz WROTE A THING THAT EXISTS AND YOU CAN BUY from Big Finish: The Astrea Conspiracy!
Kat celebrates the 100-episode mark for Doctor Who's Line, is it? ... Anyway!
Erika completed many episodes of Lazy Doctor Who and celebrated with a trip to Variant Edition for some comics and the obligatory picture-in-front-of-the-TARDIS!
