146: Bible of the Daleks (Revelation of the Daleks)
You know eventually they'll make Bible of the Daleks because there's only so many words you can use for ___ of the Daleks.
Here come the Daleks again. Is there some sort of unwritten pact that they have to appear for every doctor? Because they have so far. At least for us, I'm not counting the reboot (yet). It's Revelation of the Daleks, written by Eric Saward and aired in March of 1985.
7:56 The Star Wars Holiday Special, largely regarded as one of the best 3-course dinners of all time, was aired only once on November 17, 1978 B.C. Written, directed, produced, and baked to a golden brown by the artists formerly known as George Lucas and Jar Jar Binks, it has been made widely available in a number of different formats, such as VHS, Blu Ray, Laserdisc, pdf, and cereal box activity. You can check out the Holiday Special in all its glory here.
10:15 Greeks.
12:48 Nope.
19:13 Barrow just changed its name back to Utqiagvik.
20:20 According to this site, countries that list an indigenous American language as an official language are Bolivia, Guatemala, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela. It doesn't list Greenland, but it's one too, and there are probably more.
24:27 Yeah, looks pretty cool.
31:46 Apparently it took 5 years, but Terry Garrett completed Ocarina of Time completely blind. Here's the full playlist of all his Zelda videos.
56:50 Uh… what.
The Doctor Who title music was originally composed by Ron Grainer. The version used in this episode was arranged by Peter Howell.

141: Cyberguns Down the Cyberlackeys (Attack of the Cybermen)
Cyber. Cyber. Cyber. Cyber.
Yes this week we begin season 22. Season 22 is quite the experience. It's very violent. And to think it all begins with some cybermen. It's Attack of the Cybermen, written by Paula Moore and aired in January of 1985.
13:34 Black Orchid was one of them. I guess. Ok, actually not, but it's ok. Cause it's Black Orchid.
18:55 Like that James Bond movie, The Man With the Goldeneye Goldfinger Gun who Only Lives Twice to Live and Never Die Another Day.
30:56 Sweet dreams.
42:27 All in Siberia.
137: Bear Attacks at the BBC (Resurrection of the Daleks)
When are we getting a serious bear themed episode of Doctor Who?
Wow who would have guess that Davros would come back? And who would guess that this serial would basically display genocide? About 6 people made it out of this serial alive. Amazing. It's Resurrection of the Daleks written by Eric Saward and aired in February of 1984.
All links are on the website.
1:52 It was because of the 1984 winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. Interestingly, that was one of the only Olympic games held in a communist country.
3:33 NECESSARY TECHNOLOGY.
18:55 Oh bugger.
26:41 And then he breaks into song.
32:10 You mean this one?
125: Every Meme Has an Origin (Earthshock)
Maybe one day Trust Your Doctor will be a meme.
He finally kicked the bucket. He took a dive. Got offed. Put on ice. You feel me? Yes it's Earthshock, written by Eric Saward and aired in March of 1982.
6:30 Apparently "Morphsuits" is a brand, which I guess makes it a generic trademark?
8:49 They also continue the trend of their costumes getting more and more cool. Seriously, I forgot how terrible they looked in Tenth Planet.
9:40 Don't mind this blatant lie.
10:57 Yup.
20:20 Yeah, it does seem really bad.
22:55 What?
40:29 You heard it here first. Doctor Who stories have no plot.
123: A Cross Between a Silurian and Shrek (The Visitation)
It's all ogre the news. Terileptals take London.
This week Kiyan and Dylan visit London. Or have they already done that? Or will they still do that? Is "The Visitation" past tense? Well. Anyway, it's the Visitation, written by Eric Saward and aired in February of 1982.
5:50 Here's this handy chart that explains the difference between asteroids, comets, meteors, meteoroids, and meteorites. Again. For like the third time now.
7:08 You probably already know the scene, but why not watch it again? Do it, or I'll bite your legs off.
9:23She still did go out and kill some people though, like those poor Morphos.
11:41 Undertale is a video game.
22:13 Oh god, there's sand everywhere.
37:11 Apparently there's a Doctor Who locations guide, so uh… feel free to take a look at the locations and studios they used for this serial I guess. They have complete listings for the classic show and the new show. How… exciting.
