In this episode of our Doctor Who podcast, we delve into "The Curse of Fatal Death," a special parody episode of the long-running British science fiction series. First aired as part of the Comic Relief charity telethon in 1999, "The Curse of Fatal Death" stars Rowan Atkinson as the Doctor, along with a star-studded cast including Jonathan Pryce, Hugh Grant, and Joanna Lumley. Join us as we explore the history behind this unique and hilarious episode, from its origins as a pitch by writer Steven Moffat to the involvement of former Doctors and companions in the production. We'll also discuss the ways in which "The Curse of Fatal Death" both satirizes and affectionately celebrates the tropes of Doctor Who, from the Doctor's ever-changing face to his ability to cheat death. Throughout the episode, we'll share some of our favourite moments and quotes from this beloved one-off special, and speculate on what it might have been like if it had been made into a full series. We also re-evaluate the Steven Moffat era of Doctor Who and ask "was it all just this one joke?". So grab your sonic screwdriver and tune in for a fun-filled journey through the wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey world of "The Curse of Fatal Death." Check out Chris's Second Doctor audios.
