150b: The Daleks' Master Plan II

Krynoid PodCast ·

2026/10/06

After escaping the hullabaloo of Hollywood, normal service resumes for our intrepid adventurers. And that means a sticky wicket, a volcanic rendezvous, a lasered lock, Egyptian escapades and an advanced case of premature ageing. What's so special about the Doctor's ring? What nationality did Mavic Chen put on his passport? Was his magic act any good? And did the DMP flick Jim and Martin's switch or was it all a waste - a terrible waste - of their time?

150a: The Daleks' Master Plan I

Krynoid PodCast ·

2026/09/28

The nightmare begins... in episode 7 of The Daleks' Master Plan. But before that Christmas Day calamity, there's the first half of an epic saga of planet-hopping, fire-resistant plants, black-clad slapheads and table-thumping weirdos. And fear not, the lads will soon serve up the exciting concluding part. In the meantime... When is a companion not a companion? When is a comedy not a comedy? Is it too late for the Bing Crosby estate to sue Doctor Who? And did Jim and Martin enjoy the first half (and

149: Mission to the Unknown

Krynoid PodCast ·

2026/08/18

The name's Bond... Space Bond. Who needs the Doctor and co when you have Her Majesty's Space Security Service's best man on the job? Turns out he and his meagre team do as they fight in vain against collaborative Daleks and their perambulating pet cacti. How kind are Daleks to their plants? Will they treat a galactic Christmas tree just as well? Are Martin's theories on Pluto really worth listening to? And did he and Jim enjoy this one-and-done or was it all a waste of (not very much) time? Listen

148: Planet of Fire

Krynoid PodCast ·

2026/01/31

Kamelion reminds us all that he still exists and causes an eruption of trouble for the Doctor and Turlough. They must confront an alien marital aid, a sneaky stepdad and a livid waiter on Earth. And Sarn is no better, accommodating as it does a guy-linered zealot, a boy band leader and more lava than a 1960s lamp retailer. Chuck in a reappearance from the Doctor's psychotic old school chum and we have a great big melting pot that's well worth avoiding. Why wasn't K9 replaced with an electronic

147: The Rescue

Krynoid PodCast ·

2025/11/23

The newly Susan-free TARDIS lands on Dido (but, alas, too late to prevent her musical career from happening). There they find a distressed Susan-alike, her grumpy companion and the sinister Koquillion, who is spiky both in physiognomy and personality. Can our intrepid travellers discover Bennett's secret? Will Babs murder any more of Vicki's pets? How will the Doctor survive without having the word "Grandfather" shrieked into his face on a regular basis? And did Jim and Martin enjoy their sojourn

146: The Wheel in Space

Krynoid PodCast ·

2025/08/04

After a series of scrapes with mercury vapour, a robot and a food machine, things get even worse for the Doctor and Jamie. They fetch up on the latest base-under-insane-leadership and meet some old enemies and a smart-arsed new friend. Are three digits really better than five? Brother, can you spare a Bernalium rod (for a hungry cybermat)? Could you identify a Hercules Cluster in a blindfolded smell test? And did Jim and Martin find the story 'fantastic' or was it spinning its wheels? Listen to

145: Genesis of the Daleks

Krynoid PodCast ·

2024/12/21

Three wise time travellers journey in search of the darkest of nativities, meeting some lowly creatures and a highly unstable messiah. Harry develops a seafood allergy, Sarah's a fallen woman and the Doctor finds that navigating Skaro can be a bit of a minefield. Why does Sevrin like steamy nightclubs? Where do Davros and Nyder spend their romantic getaways? Which part of a Dalek's intestines is the most dangerous? And would Jim and Martin put Genesis of the Daleks up among the gods or did

144: The Aztecs

2024/08/26

Barbara's penchant for historical re-enactment gets our intrepid time team into a spot of bother down old Mexico way. While she cosplays as a dead bloke, the Doctor and Susan try to dodge a double wedding and Ian has to use his thumb for more than hitchhiking. Will Susan get spiked, Ian skewered and Babs bricked up? Worse still, will the Doctor get hitched? Will Tlotoxl change his name by Deed Poll or will Martin have a stroke? And did Jim and Martin find The Aztecs to be like a comforting cup of

143: Carnival of Monsters

Krynoid PodCast ·

2024/04/23

We're used to looking at a screen and seeing dodgy creatures attacking a pair of plucky adventurers. With Carnival of Monsters, you can watch other folk doing the same thing. It's like Gogglebox with grey aliens. Can a chota peg really solve any behemoth-based problem? How easy is it to drug-mule a set of skeleton keys? How many seconds were spent making the Functionary masks and how much change did they get out of a pound note? And were Jim and Martin amused by the miniscope or did it leave them

2023/12/24

The Krynoid PodCast boys welcome you back to the Green Cathedral this Yuletide to offer you perhaps the closest thing to a pantomime that '60s Who gets, The Underwater Menace. What the heck is the Doctor wearing and why? Is the rest of the Atlanteans' male grooming as lax as their eyebrows? How will Polly's groovy new gills go down on the swinging King's Road? And did this soggy saga float Jim and Martin's boats or was it like watching a shipwreck? Listen to find out! This episode can also be

We return to Who with a tale of secret enemies, ostentatious acting and stentorian asides. Will the Keeper ever escape his shower cubicle? Will aubergines ever replace Rice Krispies? Will Tom Baker ever wipe his nose? And will The Keeper of Traken give Jim and Martin a new lease of life or leave them calcified?

Jim and Martin spring a festive surprise with some new Krynoid PodCast material! They scan the snowless Snowdonian slopes for monstrous myths and find the Doctor giving an old friend a bell, Victoria repeating herself and Jamie threatening everyone with a bagpipe recital. But did The Abominable Snowmen thaw their cockles or do they give it the cold shoulder.

139: The Hand of Fear

Krynoid PodCast ·

2021/03/14

So it’s time to go home for Andy Pandy fangirl, Sarah Jane Smith. And there’s a hand pulling the strings in this show too, giving tupperware a bad name and Professor Watson a bad day at the power plant. Handily, crystalline cosmic crook Eldrad can reform herself from her moribund mitt and then she herself suffers from a wandering hand from her leading man. For a change, we leave a quarry to land on an alien planet where ‘she’ becomes a ‘he’, the decibel level rockets and he – and the serial – fall

2021/02/16

Welcome to The Fun Factory: trespassers will be self-prosecuted. The Valeyard (aka The Flaw Doctor) makes the most of a unique Time Lord feature and gives his own SJW predecessor a right legal leathering on Space Station SFX. But they still find time for trips to Camber Quicksands and Popplewick’s House of Exploding Quills, where the waiting room is spacious but gives you that sinking feeling. The Doctor quotes, the Master gloats and Glitz dotes on bank notes, while the Keeper is not averse to the

Krynoid PodCast ·

2021/01/24

You may think life can’t get much worse at the moment but locked-down Brexity Britain looks positively idyllic compared to Blighty under the rubber skirt of Dalek rule. This septic isle is overrun with motorised dustbins, headphone-wearing dullards who’ve really let themselves go and the most unrealistic pet since K9. The Doctor falls on his coccyx, Susan falls in love, Ian falls out of a door and Babs falls in with a rough crowd and TWOKs a dustcart. Luckily, a fratricidal fellow rebel lends two

What could be more fun at Christmas than a Punch and Judy show? Almost anything, of course, but perhaps even puppety domestic violence is preferable to mental subservience to an ancient evil. This is the lot of tetchy Tegan, who’s red in tooth and eye again, but at least she gets to spread the hate with an embryonic Doc Martin this time around. Nyssa cosplays a deckchair and the Doctor indulges in some heavy breathing, while Mr Sladen is forced to reflect on the viability of his shoddy little

2020/11/18

When is a talkative chair not a talkative chair? When it’s an alien shower curtain. Or a stumpy git in a pith helmet. But, underwhelming as they are, the Vardans still plan an Invasion of Time by conquering pound-shop Gallifrey – a land of medicinal jelly beans, powerful ping pong balls and walnut-chomping dropouts. Its denizens include Chancellor Borusa who’s more put-upon than Tom Baker’s beer mat and Castellan Kelner who’s slimier than a newly-painted Myrka. And, of course, a prototype Romana
