The EscapeGoat Podcast


Mar 21, 2021

This time, I am joined by the wonderful Colleen Cheetham-Gerrard to talk first (relatively briefly) about the WandaVision finale, which had just aired two days ago when we recorded this! Subsequently, we talk about a mutual passion - Doctor Who (1963-, BBC) and more specifically, the Matt Smith/Karen Gillan-starring Season 6 (2011)! Is it fantastic? Flawed? As usual, a bit of both? Listen on...

0.00 WandaVision

0.33 Doctor Who and us in general

0.49 Season 6 in detail

Colleen Cheetham-Gerrard, despite the name, is not a Daily Telegraph columnist. Instead, she's a stand-up comedian and public speaker who can mostly be found on the London circuit (or these days on Zoom). Colleen is also a co-host for Strong Female Leads, a Standard Issue podcast focussing on nerd culture from a feminist perspective. You can find Colleen on @thecolleencg on Twitter and Instagram and Strong Female Leads is on Twitter @strfemaleleads, as well as in all the usual podcast locations."

NOTES

We mention both Elizabeth Sandifer (and her vast TARDIS Eruditorum essay collection) and Jack Graham in this episode - you can find them both here: http://www.eruditorumpress.com/. This is the Andrew Blair piece from 2011 I mentioned https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/doctor-who-a-celebration-of-william-hartnell/ - Andrew has since written loads more for that site, as well as several other places, and can be found on Twitter on @freelance_liar.

Also, I found this on YouTube, from Doctor Who Confidential - remember that? It's arguably quite cute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBfQ6ppm8jQ
