00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.400
Hello, dear listener, and welcome back to Jody Interterterra, the only Doctor Who flash cast with an SI unit of measurement named after it.

2
00:00:08.460 --> 00:00:12.060
It's used by scientists to quantify tiresomeness.

3
00:00:12.179 --> 00:00:13.080
I'm Nathan.

4
00:00:13.140 --> 00:00:14.279
I'm James.

5
00:00:14.339 --> 00:00:15.660
And I'm Peter.

6
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:27.179
Well, we are here mere days after having seen the latest episode of Doctor Who series 12, the superbly named Nicola Tesla's Night of Terror.

7
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:29.760
How about Nicola Bryant's night of Jaffa?

8
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:36.000
Nicolette Bryant's 18 months of constant torment.

9
00:00:36.899 --> 00:00:41.340
Um, and we're here to tell you what we thought of it.

10
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:46.140
So let's do the traditional thing and go round the table.

11
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:46.920
Peter, what did you think?

12
00:00:47.340 --> 00:00:50.700
Well, Nicola Terra's Knight of Tesla.

13
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:54.600
I thought it was a fairly entertaining episode.

14
00:00:54.659 --> 00:00:57.359
Lots of colour. simply beautiful to look at.

15
00:00:57.420 --> 00:01:05.159
In fact, it reminded me a bit of Pete Harness's recent War of the Worlds, that same kind of aesthetic and the colour palette.

16
00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:08.400
Yeah, it was, it was...

17
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:09.780
It was nice.

18
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:11.459
Yaz had more to do than usual.

19
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:17.819
It was nice to see Robert Glenister, old Salatine back then. wanted him to throw back his head and give that mad laugh.

20
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:19.500
You know, like, ga, ga, ga.

21
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:21.180
I missed the fringe.

22
00:01:21.299 --> 00:01:22.980
The fringe.

23
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.939
And I don't know, the teeth seemed less overwhelming this time.

24
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:27.480
I don't know.

25
00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:29.519
But space has grown to match.

26
00:01:29.579 --> 00:01:30.780
Yeah, that's true.

27
00:01:30.900 --> 00:01:40.319
And yet, and yet, I found, as with a lot of recent episodes, that the whole was somehow less than some of its parts.

28
00:01:40.379 --> 00:01:54.120
Um, all the elements were there for a strong episode, and, you know, it's kind of, um, to use that old phrase pseudo-historical story that I'm genetically disposed to enjoy from all those ABC repeats of the horrifying rock and stuff like that.

29
00:01:54.180 --> 00:01:56.219
But it never quite took off for me.

30
00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:03.540
Um, Yeah, the piece was frenetic, um, but I think the storytelling was glacial.

31
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:07.560
Um, It sort of set out to educate, I think, and that's great.

32
00:02:07.620 --> 00:02:10.620
That's a positive goal, but I'm not sure there was a great deal to learn.

33
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:17.280
I think you need a Robert Holmes or an RTD or, you know, dare I say, to Pip and Jane to add a bit of romp to these romps.

34
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:35.879
You know, I actually thought that it did a really, really good job of the education thing, you know, that there's, well, we'll get back to it, but there's a lot to know about Tesla and Edison and their relationship that isn't sort of or hasn't really been widely known except in the last few decades.

35
00:02:35.939 --> 00:02:38.639
And so I kind of appreciated that.

36
00:02:38.699 --> 00:02:39.840
What did you think of it, James?

37
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:50.039
Um, look, I would, I would probably say, I, I think I had a more positive reaction to it than Peter.

38
00:02:50.099 --> 00:02:53.159
I, I enjoyed it.

39
00:02:53.219 --> 00:02:57.300
I agreed the pace was Glacial?

40
00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:08.819
Um, It, though it did seem to be a bit more balanced, the pace was slow, but at least the pace, I guess, was better than last week.

41
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.479
Um, of which I was not a huge fan.

42
00:03:13.379 --> 00:03:15.300
I...

43
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:20.699
I don't know, like I also, I mean, having done a bit of background research about Tesla.

44
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:30.120
I kind of wish that maybe made him a bit more rounded and truthful to who he was as a person.

45
00:03:30.180 --> 00:03:33.300
He was not the nicest of people.

46
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:39.419
Um, he was a terrible misogynist and uh, a eugenicist.

47
00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:43.800
Yeah, I think maybe...

48
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:45.120
Yeah, I don't know.

49
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:50.460
Yeah, where do you draw the line for historical accuracy on his dog character?

50
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:54.719
But, you know, they've done this person is a misogynist before.

51
00:03:54.780 --> 00:03:58.800
Um, they could have done this, this person is a comedy misogynist.

52
00:03:58.860 --> 00:04:01.139
At least that would maybe been a bit more truthful.

53
00:04:01.259 --> 00:04:04.979
I don't know how you shoehorn the eugenics into it.

54
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:13.560
Um, But he had some pretty terrible, almost fascist views on, on uh, on humanity.

55
00:04:13.620 --> 00:04:15.960
So, hmm, yes.

56
00:04:16.019 --> 00:04:16.439
Yeah.

57
00:04:16.500 --> 00:04:19.079
Did those kick in later or was that always a thing?

58
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:24.839
Or is that what you just expect from a sort of weird ass white guy in 1900s America?

59
00:04:24.899 --> 00:04:40.680
Well, I mean, he, I guess he did come to the misogyny a bit later in life, but it came from the, it came from a, oh, those women coming over here stealing our jobs kind of mentality, which is delightful.

60
00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:42.540
Um, because some...

61
00:04:42.540 --> 00:04:43.319
Miss Garrett.

62
00:04:43.379 --> 00:04:44.939
Dorothy Skerritt was a real person.

63
00:04:44.939 --> 00:04:49.319
And like he never had any relationships, but he did like women.

64
00:04:49.379 --> 00:04:53.220
And, you know, like on a personal level.

65
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:54.660
Anyway, look.

66
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.939
I think I think, though, there was...

67
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:00.360
Yeah, there was a lot to learn though. from that.

68
00:05:00.420 --> 00:05:11.819
And I thought, you know, for me, it was an episode that really relied on just one central guest star performance and he was really good, you know, Goran Business.

69
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:12.660
Definitely he was.

70
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:25.379
Yeah, you know, like and so the whole thing kind of wrote on that, watching it for the 2nd time today, it actually takes quite a while before the doctor even turns up and he holds that, you know, that those 1st few minutes of the episode really well.

71
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:32.819
And I was kind of the lesson that you take Nathan from something like the Shakespeare code, when you have a celebrity historical, you've got to have a celebrity at the heart of it.

72
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:33.540
Yeah.

73
00:05:33.540 --> 00:05:34.560
Yeah.

74
00:05:34.620 --> 00:05:35.160
Yeah.

75
00:05:35.220 --> 00:05:46.379
Well, you know, the reason that the Unquiet Dead works. as well as it does, is that you've got some, you know, lovely old Simon Callow there, you know, absolutely.

76
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:48.000
And tooth and claw as well.

77
00:05:48.060 --> 00:05:49.079
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

78
00:05:49.139 --> 00:05:49.980
Yeah, yeah.

79
00:05:50.100 --> 00:05:52.439
I agree with you, Peter though.

80
00:05:52.500 --> 00:05:53.939
I thought it looked incredibly good.

81
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:56.040
Like, it looked really quite amazing.

82
00:05:56.699 --> 00:06:03.720
And the 2nd time, like I did the sort of quick, you know, look through Wikipedia and stuff like that.

83
00:06:03.779 --> 00:06:11.339
And there was actually a real effort to make things look the way that they did in a way that I don't really think is necessary for historical, but it's kind of a nice to have.

84
00:06:11.699 --> 00:06:19.439
Yeah, and we sort of got used to it, you know, in the modern era, that the show just default looks brilliant, but it's rarely looked this good.

85
00:06:19.500 --> 00:06:25.139
And I mean, one of the problems with maybe last week's episode is that it was a bit patchy in its delivery.

86
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:26.639
So it was nice to have a return to form.

87
00:06:26.699 --> 00:06:33.540
There were some weird design decisions, which I think were quite deliberate, like, but they were still weird last week.

88
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:47.220
But, you know, one thing, like last year we had that very sort of prestige TV look to the show, which I thought went a bit too far and ended up looking a bit washed out and a little bit worthy and dull.

89
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.620
They sort of leaned into their Sunday nightness.

90
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:50.819
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

91
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:52.259
But they've really course corrected here.

92
00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:54.000
It still looks spectacular.

93
00:06:54.060 --> 00:06:59.639
It looks much more expensive than it did last year and it I think it looks great, you know.

94
00:06:59.699 --> 00:07:06.899
Oh, look, also, I mean, on that, um, you know, really good script.

95
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:12.360
Uh, great to have another female writer.

96
00:07:12.420 --> 00:07:15.720
In fact, this is a Doctor Who first.

97
00:07:15.779 --> 00:07:21.660
It's not the 1st story to be directed and written by a woman.

98
00:07:21.660 --> 00:07:22.259
Enlightenment.

99
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:24.060
Yes, Enlightenment is the 1st one.

100
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:30.000
It is the 1st Doctor Who story where both the director and the writer were called Nina.

101
00:07:30.060 --> 00:07:31.620
Ha.

102
00:07:31.740 --> 00:07:33.480
So there you go.

103
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:44.100
And I was listening to another podcast with Liz Miles on it, friend of the podcast, Liz Miles, and that podcast pointed out that it's the 1st episode where we see Canada.

104
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:45.720
Oh yeah.

105
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.699
I'm not sure you're right on that, Nathan.

106
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.120
I think the horns of Nimon was written and directed by people called Nina, wasn't it?

107
00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:53.040
No, okay.

108
00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:56.040
That's Proctor Nieman.

109
00:07:57.300 --> 00:07:59.160
I think both of you.

110
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:02.339
That's right, you make good points about this episode.

111
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:04.379
And by no means did I dislike it.

112
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:07.439
I thought it was pretty well done and pretty to look at.

113
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:10.500
And by most sane measures, it was a bit of a step up from last week.

114
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.560
It just kind of washed over me.

115
00:08:13.620 --> 00:08:16.800
Um, and like anything that washed so view was a bit wet.

116
00:08:16.860 --> 00:08:21.240
But I don't know if that was the episode's fault or maybe it was my reaction was at fault.

117
00:08:21.300 --> 00:08:21.720
I don't know.

118
00:08:21.779 --> 00:08:22.319
It was pretty solid.

119
00:08:22.379 --> 00:08:33.539
Yeah, I think there's a sort of simplicity to the show now, uh, and a sort of earnestness in its desire to kind of educate and and maybe to kind of set the historical record a bit straight.

120
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:36.779
And I think those 2 things are very good.

121
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:39.960
I can see that they're a reaction in a way to the Moffat era.

122
00:08:40.019 --> 00:08:47.039
There are no celebrity historicals, as Sandifer points out, in the Capoldi era, I think, at all.

123
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.799
So, you know, it's sort of a new thing.

124
00:08:52.860 --> 00:08:55.919
But in a sense, I don't know.

125
00:08:55.980 --> 00:09:00.720
It's a little bit less wacky than I normally like my Doctor Who.

126
00:09:00.779 --> 00:09:01.860
It's a little bit serious.

127
00:09:01.860 --> 00:09:08.580
And, you know, I still thought it was great, but it's not sort of up there among my absolute favourites, I think.

128
00:09:11.700 --> 00:09:12.059
Solid.

129
00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:13.259
Solid.

130
00:09:13.379 --> 00:09:21.299
Yeah, there's kind of a subdued tone, I think, to the Chris Chibnol era, and I think that's entirely by design.

131
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:23.159
And I applaud it sometimes.

132
00:09:23.220 --> 00:09:29.159
I think something like demons of the Punjab works well because it pulls back rather than going over the top.

133
00:09:30.059 --> 00:09:33.539
And this story, I think, does work well.

134
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.200
I'm struggling a little bit to explain my own reaction to it.

135
00:09:37.620 --> 00:09:39.960
Well, let me just segue.

136
00:09:40.019 --> 00:09:42.960
I mean, while we're talking about pulling back rather than going over the top.

137
00:09:43.019 --> 00:09:47.879
How did we think Angeli Indra went today?

138
00:09:47.940 --> 00:09:49.620
She's amazing.

139
00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:51.480
I mean she's so good.

140
00:09:52.500 --> 00:09:58.139
Apparently, Bradley Walsh did not recognise her.

141
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.840
Yes, I heard that as well.

142
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:02.820
Well, of course they guessed that.

143
00:10:02.940 --> 00:10:03.779
He guest star, didn't he?

144
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:05.159
Yeah, her 1st episode.

145
00:10:05.220 --> 00:10:06.179
Yeah.

146
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:10.019
To be fair, she was under a lot of makeup.

147
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:15.120
That's true And also a little known fact was that she only played the head and actually it was Tommy Knight playing the body.

148
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:19.139
Okay, fake news.

149
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:25.080
People said that she wasn't recognisable, but I thought that she was absolutely fabulously recognisable.

150
00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:27.120
Oh, yeah. as well.

151
00:10:27.179 --> 00:10:31.919
Well, and the other thing was her sort of South London accent as well.

152
00:10:31.980 --> 00:10:41.039
She was, you know, the Derek Deadman kind of school of alien accents and I was absolutely on board for it.

153
00:10:41.100 --> 00:10:44.399
It was just wonderful. absolutely.

154
00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:47.580
And I thought she was a worthy follow-up to the Empress of the Ragnar.

155
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:48.480
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

156
00:10:48.539 --> 00:10:57.000
Todd thinks that she's a sort of, you know, bargain basement version, you know, for the Empress of the Rachnos, you know, her non-union Mexican equivalent. or something.

157
00:10:57.059 --> 00:11:03.179
But, but, but it's Sarah Parish, isn't it, that plays, is that right?

158
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:04.320
Yes, Empress, yes.

159
00:11:04.379 --> 00:11:04.919
Yeah.

160
00:11:04.980 --> 00:11:14.580
And she is doing a big, giant, ridiculous panto thing for people who are drunk and and, you know, falling asleep after sort of Christmas turkey.

161
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.740
This wasn't quite that.

162
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:21.659
But it was, it was big and it was, it was really fun.

163
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:23.639
And I loved the scorpions.

164
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:25.919
Yeah, me too.

165
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:35.100
And also, um, what Todd was saying there, if there's an argument to be made for bargain basement, I think the emperor spent more time hanging around basements.

166
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:37.620
Well, the Queen's got this great outfit.

167
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:50.940
Like, if you look at it, like, there's a car tire on her shoulder and spikes and stuff like that, she's like properly humanoid and stuff and her, her, her outfit is made of bits and pieces of things much like her technology.

168
00:11:51.179 --> 00:11:53.460
I should think that...

169
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:58.320
Maybe she wasn't scorpion like enough.

170
00:11:58.740 --> 00:12:00.779
Yeah, maybe you're right.

171
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:10.679
Um, if they could have easily sort of handwaved that away as, you know, like her way of cloaking device or that she's the queen, exactly.

172
00:12:10.740 --> 00:12:18.539
Um, But maybe at least have sort of, you know, maybe her a bit, a bit more like her.

173
00:12:18.779 --> 00:12:27.360
Her um, her subjects. is like that's the only criticism I have of that I thought she was brilliant.

174
00:12:27.419 --> 00:12:29.279
She's such a great actress and.

175
00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:32.820
Um, it was so lovely to see her back.

176
00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:34.139
Yeah, yeah.

177
00:12:34.139 --> 00:12:40.679
It's so nice to see her really sort of, you know, having fun with a role because did you watch the bodyguard?

178
00:12:40.740 --> 00:12:42.000
No.

179
00:12:42.059 --> 00:12:50.399
She plays a pivotal role in the 1st and last episodes of that and it's a deadly serious role and she's superb at it.

180
00:12:50.460 --> 00:13:03.539
So just to see her kind of, you know, we know her from the Sarah Jane Adventures, where she was amazing, but it's fair to say there wasn't a huge range required, but it's so nice to see her as an actress now able to totally span that range.

181
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:05.519
Well, so that was a decade ago.

182
00:13:05.580 --> 00:13:08.039
I guess it was, wasn't it?

183
00:13:08.100 --> 00:13:09.659
Yeah, she was better than she was a child.

184
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:15.659
Well, she wasn't quite a child, but yeah, but she was a young up and coming actress.

185
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.919
I think, you know, like she's she's come a long way.

186
00:13:19.980 --> 00:13:26.159
If you were a completely opposite, sort of, thing that she's been in recently.

187
00:13:26.220 --> 00:13:38.759
She was in the, the, not the current, but the most recent season of DC's legends of tomorrow as a, as a shape shifting punk.

188
00:13:38.820 --> 00:13:40.379
Oh wow.

189
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:43.740
And she was just fantastic.

190
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:55.440
She gives a devastating speech in one of the last few episodes of cucumber as well, where she kind of is really kind of horrible. fantastic in that.

191
00:13:55.500 --> 00:13:56.879
So incredibly good.

192
00:13:56.940 --> 00:13:57.419
Yeah.

193
00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:04.379
No, I'm, I think she's, like, I'm not surprised that Russell asked her back and I'm not surprised that she's really taken off because she's really something.

194
00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:05.700
She's just fantastic.

195
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.179
Yeah, we would do the cucumber banana and tofu podcast.

196
00:14:09.299 --> 00:14:10.860
Oh, yeah.

197
00:14:10.860 --> 00:14:19.139
And I guess so the last thing that we have to talk about is how do we feel that regulars did this week?

198
00:14:19.860 --> 00:14:21.360
James.

199
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:29.940
Somebody pointed out on Twitter to to one of us.

200
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:34.320
I think it might have been you, uh, Nathan, uh, that.

201
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:43.919
If you, uh, they edited out all of, you know, all of the companions lines and it didn't distract anything from the episode.

202
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:49.139
Um because they, you know, all they really did was go, what's that?

203
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.659
Oh, what's going on here, doctor?

204
00:14:51.720 --> 00:14:53.460
Like they didn't really have much to do.

205
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:55.320
I didn't think that's true.

206
00:14:55.379 --> 00:15:00.539
I mean, I think that they were kind of interchangeable in a way, but I think that I think that's what they were getting at.

207
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:09.600
But I love that scene where Dorothy and Ryan talk about what it's like to be with Tesla and the doctor respectively.

208
00:15:09.659 --> 00:15:11.039
I thought that was really, really good.

209
00:15:11.100 --> 00:15:12.720
Oh, one of the best things.

210
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:13.620
That is great, yes.

211
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:14.700
Yeah, yeah.

212
00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:16.500
And, you know, both of them were great in it.

213
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:18.960
I thought they gave Yaz a stack to do.

214
00:15:19.019 --> 00:15:20.820
And in fact, it was Graham this week.

215
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:23.340
He was sort of reduced to dad jokes and stuff like that.

216
00:15:23.460 --> 00:15:29.340
And he got a few, like, you know, this era doesn't do humour, all that. well, I think.

217
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:37.200
But he did get some really funny, some properly funny lines or silly lines in that.

218
00:15:37.259 --> 00:15:43.440
And there were just a one off few little comic touches that I saw him do that I just thought, yep, you're really a pro.

219
00:15:43.500 --> 00:15:45.000
You kind of know what you're doing.

220
00:15:45.059 --> 00:15:48.539
Well, that's that's the thing, like even...

221
00:15:48.779 --> 00:16:00.840
And it's one of the good things about having him on the show is that even when you don't give him much to do, he still shines because he's a bloody good actor and has great comic timing.

222
00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:14.639
It feels to me, like the writers know that Graham Bradley Walsh is, you know, the biggest bonus they have in the companions, and they've realised that Ryan and Yaz are a little bit underwritten.

223
00:16:14.700 --> 00:16:26.460
And so they're taking pains to boost Ryan and Yaz a little bit more, and that means Graham's got to go into the background, but it's fine because even not doing much, the actor has so much charisma that you still feel his presence.

224
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:28.620
He can carry it. absolutely.

225
00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:29.519
Yeah, yeah.

226
00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:31.080
How do we feel?

227
00:16:31.139 --> 00:16:32.220
How do we feel Jody went?

228
00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:34.139
I thought it was good performance.

229
00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:38.820
Um, Do you know, I still, I still have a problem.

230
00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:39.779
I'm just going to say it.

231
00:16:39.899 --> 00:16:41.340
I still have a problem with her costume.

232
00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:46.139
Um, it actually, especially in historical setting.

233
00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:53.460
I have a little bit of trouble taking her seriously in that slightly weird made for cosplay ensemble that no one would choose to wear.

234
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:59.399
I think that, and Brendan said this as well, that it would have been nice to see her.

235
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:07.380
I just want to see her in a frock, frankly, but at least sort of for something more period would have been kind of nice.

236
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:18.059
I think that they probably are avoiding putting her in a dress, given the way that she dressed in Spy Fall, part one, but I am absolutely on board for the 1st time that she wears a fabulous frock.

237
00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:20.279
Oh, well, dresser is a suffragette.

238
00:17:20.339 --> 00:17:22.019
That would be awesome.

239
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:25.680
That would piss off, but not my doctor people.

240
00:17:26.460 --> 00:17:34.079
Yeah, have Jody in a period costume, but flavoured by her normal costume. like the stripes or similar colours or something like that.

241
00:17:34.140 --> 00:17:42.299
But there's something, I think, about the cut of that costume, um, that doesn't work in an historical. like Colin Baker's coat.

242
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.359
You think, why aren't these people back in history looking at it and saying, what are you wearing?

243
00:17:46.619 --> 00:17:51.480
But no, Jody, Jody is, I think she's found defeat this year.

244
00:17:51.539 --> 00:17:52.859
Yeah, I love you too.

245
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:53.339
Definitely.

246
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:54.660
All right.

247
00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:58.740
Well, I think we might wind that up unless anyone has anything that they're desperately itching to say.

248
00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:02.579
I have an itch, but I'm not desperate to say anything.

249
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:04.559
Okay, just keep it playing the cream.

250
00:18:04.740 --> 00:18:06.119
Sorry.

251
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:07.920
All right.

252
00:18:07.980 --> 00:18:19.920
Well, we might wind it up, but next week we have an episode whose use of a particular preposition is already irritating me.

253
00:18:19.980 --> 00:18:23.759
But we will talk about that then.

254
00:18:23.819 --> 00:18:27.059
But that looks really good.

255
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:38.759
There is a kind of sort of end of season promo thing floating around, which I think looks really exciting and perhaps we'll see things sort of kick up a notch in the back half of the season.

256
00:18:38.819 --> 00:18:42.900
But we will be here next week to talk about that then.

257
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:44.099
Fabulous.

258
00:18:44.220 --> 00:18:45.299
Fantastic.

259
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:55.859
So until next time, in series 18, celebrity historical, based on your life and work, may the part of you be played by Goran Visnich.

260
00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:58.200
Thank you very much for listening and good night.

261
00:18:58.259 --> 00:18:59.400
Good night.

262
00:18:59.460 --> 00:19:00.660
Good night everyone.
