Shut Up and Watch This! - Episode 59: Phantoms fan Commentary



In the latest in the Season to be Scary series, Logan Blaze is joined by the Moonbase 2 podcast host CobracommanderTFW (Or Andy) as they talk over the movie Affleck was apparently the bomb in - Phantoms (Seriously, when I tried searching for this movie on the internet, that all I was getting: THAT scene from Jay & Silent Bob Strikes Back!)

Sorry, but there isn't an "Other means" for the reasons stated above - the internet simply hates this movie.

Affleck WAS the bomb in Phantoms... shame he wasn't ticking.

Stardub - 2.20: When you're alone and life is making you lonely You can always watch Downtime

 

What passes for normal service here has been resumed, we'll be picking up the Sixth Doctor Retrospective in a few episodes time.

In the meantime your intrepid team talk about the importance of going outside for gatherings such as the recent Birmingham Informal Gathering 4, while sitting in the Burns Cave and spending far a little time talking about OINK! That's right the pig based anarchic comic from IPC in the 1980's.

Unable to completely shake off the Doctor Who we hear the thoughts on DOWNTIME, a Doctor Who spinoff that includes Sarah-Jane Smith, Victoria Waterfield, The Great Intelligence, The Yeti and Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart.

What could go wrong? Listen on...

Before we get to that, there is the small matter of a parcel of doom from the ever-present but frequently silent contributor little Philip Ayres. What has he sent to us? Will it bring joy like Manimal (to Andy) or despair like Manimal (to Ralph)? You’ll have to listen.

Sixth Doctor stories covered in this podcast are – Attack of the Cybermen, Vengeance on Varos, and The Mark of the Rani.

We also talk about chafing and grannies in basements.
