42 to Doomsday - Dragged from the Archives: 1982 (Part 1)

Episode 101 – We are back and we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the debut of the 5th Doctor Who by dragging through our fanzine collections of yesteryear, looking at all the Doctor Who news from 1982.  It’s so chunky we are splitting this over 2 episodes! Travel back with us to the year where the first computer virus was unleased on the world, the greatest microcomputer designed by man was released and MJ was on top of the charts (Shamone!).  In this episode we see how in Doctor Who Land fans were awaiting ‘Time ---- Flight’ with baited breath!  Find out WHO topped the Daily Mail ‘Hero’ awards, there is an in-depth interview with the actress who played the Doctor’s companion Byssa (!) and coverage of the cancellation crisis of 1982 (and was the producer the first to know?) All this plus our new ‘Battle of Wits segment, listener feedback (both written and verbal), and by unpopular demand Mark unleashes his latest batch of ‘jokes’! #prayforrob
