Our old chum Suky Khakh joins us to take a look at the Third Doctor debut story “Spearhead from Space”. Along the way, Mark reports on a visit to Leadworth and we examine the blatant flirting between the Brig and Liz. DDPC206 – The Podcasting Lark Download Listen/download on iTunes Listen/download on Spotify Listen/download on Amazon Music Find us on Bluesky Find us on Twitter Find us on Facebook Find us on Mastodon Find us on Instagram We can also be found on the Doctor Who Podcast Alliance Find Diddly Dum pics on Tumblr. Visit our Youtube page. Email us at diddlydumpodcast@yahoo.co.uk SHOW NOTES (00:00:00) Our guest is Suky Khakh of the “Around the Console” podcast, the “Trek This Out” podcast and the “Take Your Seats” podcast. (00:00:00) The intro here is of course a tribute to “The Navy Lark”, a BBC radio comedy sitcom about life aboard a British Royal Navy frigate broadcast between 1959 and 1977. For most of its run, the show starred Leslie Phillips, Jon Pertwee and Stephen Murray. (00:05:59) St Fagans National Museum of History commonly referred to as St Fagans after the village where it is located, is an open-air museum in Cardiff chronicling the historical lifestyle, culture, and architecture of the Welsh people. The museum is part of the wider network of Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales. It consists of more than forty re-erected buildings from various locations in Wales, and is set in the grounds of St Fagans Castle, a Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house. In 2011 Which? magazine named the museum the United Kingdom’s favourite visitor attraction. A six-year, £30-million revamp was completed in 2018 and the museum was named the Art Fund Museum of the Year in 2019. (00:07:12) This is an except from Stewart Lee’s “Content Provider” comedy tour. (00:12:55) This is the 1985 TV commerical for the 5-4-3-2-1 chocolate bar. As the name of the bar suggests, it consisted of five different parts; wafer, crispy rice, caramel, fondant, and milk chocolate. It was made by Crawford’s (who also made Bandit) at their Binns Road factory in Liverpool. The brand was sold to United Biscuits in 1960. Sadly, it was discontinued in 1989 due to poor sale s. (00:39:16) Rosa Lewis (1867–1952) was an English cook and owner of The Cavendish Hotel in London, located at the intersection of Jermyn Street and Duke Street, St. James. Known as the “Queen of Cooks”, her culinary skills were highly prized by Edward VII, with whom she was rumoured to have had an affair in the 1890s. She was also called “The Duchess of Jermyn Street.” She left school at 12 to go into domestic service, working her way up to cook. She claimed that the great chef Auguste Escoffier taught her about cooking. It was he who named her the “Queen of Cooks”. One of her employers was Lady Randolph Churchill. One day, Rosa chased Lady Randolph’s then ten-year-old, red-haired son Winston out of her kitchen, shouting “Hop it, copper knob.” The 1976-77 BBC television series, “The Duchess of Duke Street”, starring Gemma Jones, was loosely based on her life. It is said that some of the scenes in “Vile Bodies” by Evelyn Waugh, in which she appears as her fictional counterpart Lottie Crump, were also inspired by the Cavendish Hotel under Lewis’ management. (00:53:36) “P.R.O.B.E.” is a series of direct-to-video science-fiction films mostly written by Mark Gatiss and produced by BBV Productions. It was the first live-action Doctor Who spin-off series. The series features Caroline John as Liz Shaw, working for the Preternatural Research Bureau. Many former Doctor Who actors, including former Doctors Jon Pertwee, Peter Davison, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy, appear in the series playing different roles. (Due to licensing restrictions, no overt reference to The Doctor is permitted.) Doctor Who alumna Louise Jameson co-stars with Caroline John in the original four films, as Patricia Haggard. (01:05:21) This rallying call for the BBC bolshies comes from the end of the opening credits music of “Citizen Smith”, a British television sitcom written by John Sullivan, first broadcast from 1977 to 1980. It starred Robert Lindsay as Walter Henry “Wolfie” Smith, a young Marxist “urban guerrilla” in Tooting, south London, who is attempting to emulate his hero Che Guevara. Wolfie is a reference to the Irish revolutionary Wolfe Tone, who used the pseudonym “Citizen Smith” in order to evade capture by the Dublin Castle administration. Wolfie is the self-proclaimed leader of the revolutionary Tooting Popular Front (the TPF, merely a small bunch of his friends), the goals of which are “Power to the People” and “Freedom for Tooting”. (01:13:38) “Unman, Wittering and Zigo” is a 1958 radio play by the Anglo-Irish playwright Giles Cooper. A feature film version was released in 1971. The play is part of the curriculum for GCSE and Standard Grade English coursework in the United Kingdom and is frequently performed in public schools. (01:17:38) The famous Hand of Sutekh makes its debut in episode 2 of “Spearhead from Space” as can be seen on our Youtube channel here.

Visit our Youtube page. Email us at diddlydumpodcast@yahoo.co.uk SHOW NOTES (00:01:09) The songs which top and tail this podcast are from a “Lady Penelope Investigates” LP produced by Century 21 Records in 1966 and acquired by Doc at a school Bring & Buy sale in the early 1970s. The LP cover can be seen on our Tumblr page here and the songs themselves can be found here . (00:03:22) Breakaway was a brand of chocolate-covered digestive biscuit from Nestlé, which started production in 1970 in the United Kingdom , manufactured by Rowntree Mackintosh Confectionery. Nestlé acquired the brand in 1988. It was discontinued in February 2024 after 54 years due to falling sales. (00:28:19) Of the several incarnations of “The Tomorrow People”, the one Mark is referring to here is the British children’s science fiction television series produced by Thames Television for the ITV Network, the series first ran from 1973 to 1979. All incarnations of the show concerned the emergence of the next stage of human evolution ( Homo novis ) known colloquially as Tomorrow People . Born to human parents, an apparently normal child might at some point between childhood and late adolescence experience a process called ‘breaking out’ and develop special paranormal abilities. These abilities include psionic powers such as telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation. However, their psychological make-up prevents them from intentionally killing others. The theme music and opening credits were fabulous. (00:43:30) “Captain Zep – Super Space Detective” s a British television children’s series produced by the BBC between 1983 and 1984. Constructed as part drama and part quiz game, “Captain Zep” featured mysteries that would be solved by the child audience in the studio, along with a write-in competition for viewers. The child audience were dressed in futuristic clothes and had gelled hair. The series was also notable for its combination of live action and animation, where the cast would interact with drawn alien characters amidst drawn backgrounds. (00:45:56) “The Comeuppance of Captain Katt” was written and directed by Peter Grimwade as part of ITV’s “Dramarama” series. (00:47:50) “Whizzer and Chips” was a British comics magazine that ran from 1969 to 1990, when it merged with the comic “Buster”. The format of “Whizzer and Chips” presented the comic as being divided into two separate parts — a novel idea at the time. One part was called Whizzer and the other was called Chips , with Chips existing as a separate pull-out section in the middle. The slogan “Two comics in one, double the fun!” was used. (00:49:07) This audio clip is from “Rough Justice”, episode 18 of “Porridge” , a British sitcom, starring Ronnie Barker and Richard Beckinsale, written by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, and broadcast on BBC1 from 1974 to 1977. The sitcom focuses on two prison inmates, Norman Fletcher (played by Barker) and Lennie Godber (played by Beckinsale), who are serving time at the fictional HMP Slade in Cumberland. The show’s title is a 1950s British slang term for a prison sentence, derived from the traditional breakfast that used to be served in British prisons.

(00:36:59) Brian Keith “Herbie” Flowers (19 May 1938 – 5 September 2024) was an English musician specialising in bass guitar, double bass and tuba. He was a member of groups including Blue Mink, T. Rex and Sky and was also a prolific session musician.

He also played bass on “ Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of the Wor lds”.

Made in two seasons of 13 episodes each by Nippon Television it was shown in Japan in 1973 and 1974 as “Suikoden”. For an English-language version, it was adapted by David Weir without translations, using only brief plot synopses. The dubbed version, narrated by Burt Kwouk, was shown by the BBC from 1976 to 1978. (01:18:18) “Shardlake” is a series of historical mystery novels by C. J. Sansom, set in 16th century Tudor England.
