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.
StevenHOST
Yeah.
ConnorHOST
Mm.
AidanHOST
Because she's only, she does, she does with, she's with, uh, Sylvester as well, right?
ConnorHOST
Yeah, yeah.
AidanHOST
She starts on-
10 MINS LATER
AidanHOST
This would be the last time in the series that Colin Baker would be seen in the TARDIS console room.
ConnorHOST
Oh, RIP the GOAT.
AidanHOST
As Sylvester McCoy stood in for him in the regeneration scene of-
ConnorHOST
Actual
DylanHOST
Yeah, they tend to be sort of two-handers or three-handers like this.
DylanHOST
There's that Sylvester McCoy one, isn't there, where he meets Karlendorf? Yes.
DylanHOST
And it's a sequel to Planet of the Daleks.
DylanHOST
And again, as a fan, I was so excited going into that.
Talal KarkoutiHOST
Very nice.
Talal KarkoutiHOST
I spent a few hours with Sylvester McCoy once.
Diane MorganGUEST

John S. DrewHOST
You've probably just hopefully listened to our review of Survival with Paul Ebbs joining us there to wrap things up.
John S. DrewHOST
And usually when we do one of these end of eras, you know, McCoy, Bakers, Peter Davis, and what have you, we always did a retrospective.
John S. DrewHOST
And then we also did retrospectives for each of the decades.
John S. DrewHOST
And the thing was, I was like...
John S. DrewHOST
Right.
John S. DrewHOST
So we're going to break this up into three segments.
John S. DrewHOST
It's going to be first our look at the McCoy era.
John S. DrewHOST
Then we're going to widen it out to the 80s.
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.
Fraser GregoryGUEST
I need, you know, Painforth needs to hurry up now, so I'm gonna give her the bone that I wouldn't eat." He's juggling every- he's playing chess with all these characters super precisely.
Joe FordHOST
I think a less kind, but, but sort of similar reading could be that he's had a l- good look and seen how all this ends already, 'cause he does that as Sylvester McCoy, doesn't he?
Fraser GregoryGUEST
Yeah.
Joe FordHOST
He knows wh- he knows precisely how these things are gonna end right at the start, and goes, "All right.
Fraser GregoryGUEST
It's, it's, it's, it's the, the essence of Cartmel's vision of the Seventh Doctor, this, this, this manipulator, this arch manipulator, um, in, in three episodes.
Joe FordHOST
But as well, I think, I think this is...
Joe FordHOST
People go, "Why wasn't, uh, Remembrance of the Daleks the 25th anniversary story?" This is the most Doctor Who Sylvester McCoy story of all, right? Now, in '25, you've got Remembrance, which is a, a, um, a bold reinstatement of what Doctor Who is, going ahead, and you've got an, a mad experiment in the Happiness Patrol, and then you've got a very surreal, you know, pumping out potent images in Greatest Show in the Galaxy.
Joe FordHOST
But in [laughs] Silver Nemesis, you, it's what you said.
DylanHOST
What about you guys?
MarkGUEST
I think because Star Trek was on... kind of all the time in the or at least it felt like it was like I felt you were never too far away from Star Trek in the 90s I didn't really do all that much extended media the one thing I do remember though was the return the William Shatner novel where Kirk's brought back from the dead by the Borg and Scotty and Spock and McCoy all get involved, and it's the next-gen cast, and it's just this big first-contact Star Trek Generations sequel.
MarkGUEST
So I definitely remember getting that for Christmas, I think, and devouring that over the Christmas holidays.
MarkGUEST
But other than that, I think it was the...

BenGUEST
They are giving it their all in a way that, going back to the Doctor Who comparison...
BenGUEST
You know, Doctor Who actors sound like they can't even be bothered to read the fucking script before they record a big finish.
DylanHOST
Yeah, Sylvester McCoy.
BenGUEST
Yeah, let alone you can imagine that they would put on a fucking proper night at the theatre at a Doctor Who convention if you did this as the entertainment.
Kim RenfroHOST
Mm.
Jessie EarlHOST
And I, like, I love Sylvester McCoy, one of my favorite doctors.
Jessie EarlHOST
I've, I've... don't, haven't watched all of the old Doctor Who stuff, but I've seen some of his stuff, and he's great.
Jessie EarlHOST
Uh, and he's a really great actor, but...
Gary AkersHOST
Or no, the thing you'd have to – no, that would be the kind of – Would it be – The pomposity would cause everything to implode.
Gary AkersHOST
Would it be Sylvester McCoy? No, Tom Baker.
Gary AkersHOST
No, Tom Baker against Picard would be good.
Kyle WagnerHOST
Yeah.
