The Entirety of Flight Through Entirety: A Doctor Who Podcast Collection

Saturday 1 September 1979. Destiny of the Daleks. It’s the last episode of our fifth season, which means that it’s time to say goodbye to Terry Nation, as the production team turns his final script for the programme into an achingly contemporary Disco Remix of the Dalek–Thal conflict which could only have happened in the last few moments of the 1970s.

Saturday 22 November 1975. The Android Invasion. In a sleepy English village on a distant planet, a small group of robots and pachyderms are preparing to invade the Earth, but in a fun and memorable Terry Nation kind of way.

Saturday 8 March 1975. Genesis of the Daleks. This week, Nathan, Peter, Simon and Corey are sent back in time on a mission to prevent Doctor Who fandom from concluding that the brilliance of Genesis of the Daleks is somehow not the result of the brilliance of Terry Nation.

Saturday 23 February 1974. Death to the Daleks. It’s Doctor Who at its most typical this week, as a stranded space expedition is sufficiently beset by natives and Daleks to fill four episodes with daring sacrifices and human escapes until the generically mandatory explosion comes along to set everything to rights.

Saturday 7 April 1973. Planet of the Daleks. This week, Jeremy Radick joins us for a desperate mission to a low-effort jungle planet somewhere in the northern reaches of Shepherd’s Bush, as Terry Nation tries to reclaim the glory days when Dalek stories took place on a more modest scale — full of incident and thrilling action sequences, but shot in a studio that had once hosted episodes of Morecambe and Wise.
