episode 134 - Hawaiian Shirts and Mini Skirts




MarkWHO42: The Doctor Who Radio Show show

Summary: From 1980-1989, Doctor Who was produced by one man who was instrumental in making it an internationally renowned show. John Nathan-Turner may have been the reason the show didn't end when Tom Baker, the ultimate Doctor left and was in a love/hate relationship with fans just like Steven Moffat has been recently. MarkWHO42 devotes this episode on JN-T! Join Mark Baumgarten and Christian Basel as they welcome those who knew him: Joey Reynolds, Dan Harris, Juan Sanmiguel, Charles Martin, and Mark himself, talking about the man and the myth that was JN-T, while also talking about how his legacy lives on. We even fit a discussion of Big Finish Productions, DWB, and the Netflix/Hulu news sprinkled within the featured dialog. Plus Joey shares clips of interviews with Wendy Padbury (Zoe), Nicholas Courtney (the Brigadier), Janet Fielding (Tegan), and Sophie Aldred (Ace) as they talk about John's life and funeral back in 2002. MarkWHO42! More fun than wearing only Hawaiian shirts!
