StevenHOST
Did they say? I don't remember if they did or not.
StevenHOST
Colin Baker came and went, right? Yeah, Colin Baker's been on.
StevenHOST
Has Davison been on recently? I don't remember now.
StevenHOST
I don't know if he has.
StevenHOST
No, but that's a very good idea.
StevenHOST
Colin Baker has with Nicola Bryant.
StevenHOST
Paul McGann in a way, he was kind of on the same Sylvester McCoy episode.
StevenHOST
So it's only right that Peter Davison shows up for one of these two, which very well might happen.
ConnorHOST
This serial is the first appearance of Bonnie Langford as companion Mel Bush.
ConnorHOST
In the serial, the alien time traveler, the Sixth Doctor, Colin Baker, is put on trial by his p- people.
ConnorHOST
Yeah, we, we get that point.
ConnorHOST
Um, ooh.
ConnorHOST
Yeah.
AidanHOST
Yeah, it is.
AidanHOST
And I just think, unfortunately, like, with a lot of this stuff, Classic Who or Colin Baker stories otherwise, I just think they just become kinda slop and just boring.
ConnorHOST
K- yeah.
Mark RawlinsGUEST
That is Eric Sayward, I'm sorry.
DylanHOST
I do enjoy those trial scenes because obviously you've got Colin Baker and Michael Jaston and Linda Bellingham all eating the scenery.
DylanHOST
But as you say, it does weird things to the pacing of each story.
Mark RawlinsGUEST
Yeah, like you say, brilliant actors.
DylanHOST
But as you say, you can see the flaws in it.
Mark RawlinsGUEST
Well, this is the thing.
Mark RawlinsGUEST
It's like 50% of Colin Baker's time on TV.
Mark RawlinsGUEST
That is a big risk.
Alexei SayleHOST
worst Doctor Who ever though so that's on the other side I'm not Who was your doctor
Talal KarkoutiHOST
in your episode? Colin Baker.
Talal KarkoutiHOST
And is he your favorite? Is there a bias? Colin
Diane MorganGUEST
Baker's the best, surely.
Jim BeardHOST
Although that's funny.
Jim BeardHOST
Cause I can think of plenty of times when Peter Davidson was not a peacenik, you know, Then you get to Colin Baker.
Jim BeardHOST
And Colin Baker, to me, maybe was the true amalgamation of the people before him.
John S. DrewHOST
Right.
John S. DrewHOST
And that was a little
8 MINS LATER
John S. DrewHOST
Yeah.
John S. DrewHOST
I
Jim BeardHOST
mean, it's funny how people, I think, tried to make me believe that Colin Baker was going to be almost like the angry doctor.
MelvinPANELIST
I know he recently did.
MelvinPANELIST
He recently returned to the role, didn't he, in a big finish with, was it Peter Davison or was it Colin Baker? Do you know which one I'm talking about? Or was it a War Doctor Begins character?
MarkHOST
I think the only one I've heard him in for Big Finish was...
MarkHOST
I think it was a Colin Baker one.
MarkHOST
It was written by Andrew Smith, who wrote Full Circle.
MarkHOST
And it was about sort of a Cyberman plot to get rid of all the Earth's water, I think.
JawaHOST
And who else? Oh, we've got Jeffrey Stevens as Louie, one of Fat Sam's hoodlums.
JawaHOST
Bonita Langford as Lena Morelli, a showy, pompous theatre performer, better known, of course, as Bonnie Langford, later become a Doctor Who companion to Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy.
JawaHOST
Mark Curry is Oscar DeVelt, a stuck-up theatre producer who would later become a Blue Peter presenter.
JawaHOST
Jonathan Scott-Taylor is a news reporter, and Louise English as ballerina Mel.
MarkGUEST
Two actors come out on stage and perform, as you say, this treatise on kind of, you know, what makes humanity good? What could we change? But performed as these beloved Star Trek characters.
MarkGUEST
I can't imagine, like, what Colin Baker, well, I can now because Michael Jason's dead, but, you know, Colin Baker and Michael Jason coming out on stage, for example, and doing something like this.
MarkGUEST
I don't think it would happen.
MarkGUEST
It would be a big finished box set recorded remotely, and it would kind of lose something, I think.

BenGUEST
I mean, okay, I'm saying good guest stars.
BenGUEST
Like guest stars, at least that we would be familiar with.
BenGUEST
New Voyages has an episode where Colin Baker, Doctor Who, Colin Baker is in.
BenGUEST
Star Trek continues.
AdrianHOST
Sauer takes this exact worldview, this cynical, bureaucratic, gritty 1970s police procedural tone, and he transplants it directly into the script editor's chair of Doctor Who.
AdrianHOST
And when he does, particularly during the Colin Baker era, he fundamentally and violently alters the DNA of the show.
AdrianHOST
It
ClaraHOST
was a massive shift.
Baz GreenlandHOST
Yeah.
Ben GreenlandHOST
They'd be appalled at Colin Baker.
Baz GreenlandHOST
It's the kind of thing where, like, these days it's something like Russell Davis would've done now and go, "I'm gonna completely change everything and throw in these random things." And everyone's gonna go, "Oh my God, you've changed continuity.
Baz GreenlandHOST
What are you doing?"
9 MINS LATER
Baz GreenlandHOST
And when I, I watched the '96 TV movie when it came out, and I remember it, and I love Paul McGann.
Baz GreenlandHOST
And you know, we are, Ben and I, huge, huge, huge Paul McGann Big Finish listeners.
Baz GreenlandHOST
Yeah, Paul McGann and Colin Baker are the two best Doctors on Big Finish.
Ben GreenlandHOST
I mean, my top five-
