| 52: Resurrection of the Daleks (Classic Doctor Who Review) | 13 Dec 2017 | 01:02:47 | |
Show notes: We mention the release of Eric's book, so here's a link if you want to buy Eric's book. You should buy Eric's book. http://www.gregorysuicide.com/ Here's that movie Eric can't think of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eiv9Bhbsxfk Oh, and after listening to the edit of this I realized that it's not entirely clear that we do understand that the Daleks are replacing the Doctor and his companions with replicants in order to execute members of the high council. What doesn't make sense is the other plot about Davros and the Movellan death virus also being located in the same place as the time corridor trap. Pick a plotline! --Eric Outro Music: Hot Mess by Chromeo | |||
