Genesis of the Daleks Part One, Gallifrey Gals Get Wibbly Wobbly! Ep1
Added 2021-04-22 17:00:04 +0000 UTCSomething a little different this week! As Katrina prepares Paula for the 50th anniversary episode of Who, they watch some classic Doctor Who! The next few weeks the Gals will be jumping into some classic who, and a journey through time and space leading up to their reaction of the 50th anniversary special!

2023-09-04 19:33:10 +0000 UTCTom Baker will always be My Doctor! I started watching the show after graduating from middle school in May 1980. Mom wouldn’t let me stay up late to watch it before then, since the PBS station in Chicago showed it at 11 on Sunday night. Most stories were four episodes stitched together, so the show usually finished around 12:35 am. After graduating, she said it would be my choice if I wanted to be tired in school on Monday. My sister and I went to a Doctor Who convention in Rosemont, IL in 1982, where I met Tom Baker and even kissed his cheek!

2021-05-01 07:51:38 +0000 UTCI saw "Talons of Weng Chiang" when it was first broadcast. I must say I assumed from the beginning that the character of Li H'sen Chang was intended to be based on the real life William Robinson - a white American magician who performed in London as a character called Chung Ling Soo. He died on stage when his performance of the Bullet Catch went not quite to plan. Many of his props are now on display at the Magic Circle museum near Euston Station. The whole yellow face thing is a sad blot on what is otherwise a Robert Holmes masterpiece.

2021-04-27 15:37:48 +0000 UTCYeah, the 'yellow-face' didn't age very well, but otherwise it's a great story! :)

2021-04-26 03:34:48 +0000 UTCKat mentioned they saw Adventure in Time and Space recently, and I know they plan to see the minisodes.
Malcolm Wolf
2021-04-25 16:53:31 +0000 UTCMy favorite of the Baker era was The Talons of Wang Chiang. A ripping good Victorian Sci Fi horror yarn. Maybe a bit dated... possibly Racist for today... but worth a look... Teaching the savage Leela table manners alone is worth it
Mark Ten
2021-04-25 14:28:03 +0000 UTCI hope we get to see you both react to the Minisode before the 50th and are you going to watch 'An Adventure in Time and Space'? A perfect time to watch it!

2021-04-23 19:02:05 +0000 UTCHe was most excellent in Allo Allo 😀

2021-04-23 18:56:55 +0000 UTCPaula had the best reaction "It feels like Doctor Who ....The Doctor (feels) younger" Thats why most people say Tom Baker is the best, by lightyears. You watch him and you know, right from the start, thats the Doctor, no doubt.

2021-04-23 17:41:14 +0000 UTCYou muggle.... the scarf was invented by "Madame Nostradamus" :P

2021-04-23 17:39:00 +0000 UTC15 feet long - the scarf

2021-04-23 09:23:38 +0000 UTCReally good story - great choice
Matt
2021-04-23 09:16:47 +0000 UTCI have had the pleasure of meeting the man on a few occasions - such a gentleman, so kind, so naughty.
Matt
2021-04-23 09:16:31 +0000 UTCHe truly is an absolute legend
Matt
2021-04-23 09:14:27 +0000 UTCMad Uncle Tom is My Doctor ❤️

2021-04-23 09:13:45 +0000 UTCGood Moaning

2021-04-23 07:59:42 +0000 UTCThat was so much fun, i have only seen the pilot episode of classic who and never any from the 4th. This answers a lot of questions.
Amanda Logsdon
2021-04-23 07:41:57 +0000 UTCA little story about the scarf. The producers had decided to outfit the 4th Doctor in the style of a famous Toulouse Latrec lithograph of Aristide Bruant- wide brimmed hat and scarf. So they bought a whole lot of different colored wool and gave it to a woman named Begonia Pope, who didn’t know how long they wanted it so just ended up using all the wool they had provided. They loved it, so kept it as it was. And you’re right, Tom carries off the scarf with tremendous flair🧣😀.

2021-04-23 05:40:57 +0000 UTCI think I recall them mentioning watching it. It was third classic show that was voted on.
Malcolm Wolf
2021-04-23 04:27:08 +0000 UTCPaula: “It’s not very Doctor-esque to go back to the genesis of a creature and, like, stop it from ever being born.” Katrina: *is very glad she already has a finger on her mouth* (Must … not … say anything!)
Ka Man Chan
2021-04-23 04:13:45 +0000 UTCAs I said on YouTube, pleasantly surprised by this, most likely will also pay off too once we get into a certain two parter for Capaldi. Does this also mean we get Brain of Morbius? It would tie in very nicely with a certain minisode for the 50th (Sisters of Karn) ... Not to mention another double episode for Jodie Whitaker 😜
Sufyaan Kazi
2021-04-23 02:54:18 +0000 UTCThe first actor that Paula thought she recognised - the character is called Ravon and is one of the Kaled soldiers who captures them at the beginning. The actor is most popularly known for his role as Lieutenant Gruber in the brticom Allo Allo, He does have a small Star Trek connection - in Enterprise he plays Malcolm Reed's father in one episode. Oh, and his name is Guy Siner
Bill Roland
2021-04-23 02:25:07 +0000 UTCNot a minority at all! Harry was great, and really deserved a longer run. I love his relationship with SJ (always getting a ride out of her by calling her “old girl” in that slightly posh polite English tone 😊). The three of them were great together.

2021-04-23 02:06:41 +0000 UTCIM DEAD 😆😆 - Kat
Time Lord
2021-04-23 00:47:24 +0000 UTCI've always loved how shout-y they make the Kaleds in this! It's easy to see how they evolved into shout-y Daleks (the actors even use similar speech patterns)! Definitely not much of a leap! 😆
Nicole Mazza
2021-04-23 00:06:02 +0000 UTCI'm not gonna lie, I've always shipped Harry and the Giant Clam. 😆😆
Nicole Mazza
2021-04-22 23:11:40 +0000 UTCAlso, I know I'm in the minority here, but I think Harry Sullivan is a very underrated companion. But then it's hard to compete with his contemporaneous companion Sarah (Jane), as she's a huge fan favorite.
Nicole Mazza
2021-04-22 22:35:03 +0000 UTCJust had to pause to say, I'm loving your comments about the outside location, as they're probably just in a quarry, which is Totally A Thing in Classic Who. In fact, it became a bit of a running joke as time went on. Classic Who is almost always in quarries! LOL!
Nicole Mazza
2021-04-22 22:32:46 +0000 UTCyour comments about British actors of the time and being evil in uniforms, their joke was unrealted but it made me think of Mitchell and Webb "... are we the baddies??" :)
hrcaffee
2021-04-22 22:18:50 +0000 UTCThis one awesome story as your first into classic Who and Tom Baker is one of the best Doctors in classic (next to Jon Pertwee)
Oliver Horsley
2021-04-22 21:44:11 +0000 UTCThe opening to most of Tom Baker's episodes is the one I grew up with, and remember most. Nice to hear the old "dum-dee-dums" once again. :)

2021-04-22 19:33:43 +0000 UTCI believe what Sarah Jane is wearing are called culottes.

2021-04-22 19:22:17 +0000 UTCAlso in Star Trek “enterprise”

2021-04-22 18:59:12 +0000 UTCSo happy you're watching Genesis of the Daleks! One of the very best stories of this era. This is from Tom Baker's first season, and it's funny how you say he seems so much less erratic than modern Doctors, because at the time he was regarded as very much so. But that was coming off from Pertwee, who was suave and very patrician. Also, Tom was the youngest actor to be cast in the role at the time, being 40, and he had such a dynamic energy when he first appeared on screen. His first appearance had some really loopy character moments, but he is more serious in this story. It was also around this time that conservative campaigners started protesting about the level of violence and such in DW. Also, so good to see Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane. She was adorable, and such a great performer, and she and Tom grew to have an amazing chemistry and worked so well together. And I'm sure I wasn't the only kid who had a huge crush on her at the time (I would have been about 12 or 13 when this came out)! Can't wait for the next 3 parts!
Lloyd B
2021-04-22 18:44:41 +0000 UTCSince you were focusing on her outfit, here's something I thought you'd enjoy, Sarah's (im)famous Andy Pandy look https://www.pinterest.com/pin/313211349059163857/

2021-04-22 18:28:44 +0000 UTCfrom the sounds of it I imagine May-June time
BrightHeart
2021-04-22 18:05:29 +0000 UTCThink it’s great that you’re reacting to come classic, but I’m just wondering, when might be the 50th reaction be?? Don’t want feel like I’m pressuring you!!
Daniel French
2021-04-22 17:48:18 +0000 UTCGlad to see you doing this one, it is a classic Classic (or Classic classic?). The story is a bit grim, others in the Tom Baker era are a little more light hearted. Hope you enjoy!
Mark Ten
2021-04-22 17:41:52 +0000 UTCI don't particularly care for this story, but I'm here to support my Gals. 😁❤
Amy Chlebus
2021-04-22 17:24:33 +0000 UTCThe Doctor that I spent most of my time with, back in the day. Never was able to understand why the PBS station where I watched it always showed it at one o'clock at night. As if it was a show full of naughtiness.:-)
Bruce Bromley
2021-04-22 17:10:33 +0000 UTCGreat, I have been revisiting some classic lately.
