Ioan MorrisGUEST
In this, I just don't get much at all.
Ioan MorrisGUEST
And the Leisure Hive.
Ioan MorrisGUEST
Don't forget the Leisure Hive.
Ioan MorrisGUEST
Yeah, I will go to bat for the Leisure Hive as well.
Ioan MorrisGUEST
Yeah, oh, man.
Joe FordHOST
No, Yoan, what's wrong with you?

What am I trying to change at this point?
AidanHOST
So let's talk about a little bit of classic Doctor Who.
AidanHOST
Not doing Leisure Hive.
AidanHOST
Not Leisure Hive.
AidanHOST
Paradise Towers.
AidanHOST
Yeah.
AidanHOST
Goodnight, girl.
ConnorHOST
Kind of similar, though, isn't it? I don't like Leisure Hive, though, I guess.
ConnorHOST
Yeah, see, I'm a classic Who simpleton.
Peter GriffithsHOST
there's a couple of production lapses, absolutely.
Peter GriffithsHOST
But as a template for the show going forward, I think people point to The Leisure Hive as like the quantum leap in production quality between the 70s and the 80s, and it is.
Peter GriffithsHOST
But it's not definitive.
Peter GriffithsHOST

Dwayne BunnyHOST
Starting way back in the time monster, he played a unit soldier.
Dwayne BunnyHOST
He was in Invasion of the Dinosaurs, Genesis of Daleks, another unit soldier in Terror of the Zygons, Mask of Mandragora, Sunmakers, Pirate Planet, anything else interesting there? He played one of the Famasi in The Leisure Hive as well, of course.
Dwayne BunnyHOST
You recognise him from there.
Dwayne BunnyHOST
Yes, there you go.
