Radio Free Skaro #652 – The Glass Ceiling

Posted on September 9, 2018 by Chris

It’s official! Doctor Who, starring one Jodie Whittaker as Dr. Who, will air on October 7 worldwide (well, the UK, USA, and Canada, so far, and October 8 in Australia), and we’re pleased as punch about it. To build up and celebrate the impending arrival of Thirteen, BBC America is doing a timey-wimey marathon, Australia is doing cinema screenings the next day, and Canada’s own Space is…showing the episode. Plus we have Edmonton Expo news, some gushing over the upcoming (circa 1981) Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy Blu-ray, and an interview with man-about-town and TV Years editor Graham Kibble-White!

Hi – just to give you a bit more information about the Heather Hartnell interview. It was conducted by Howard White for issue one of the short lived 80s fanzine ‘No, Not the Mind Probe’. I was one of the three contributing editors. A team of three – I like to think we blazed a trail that is being followed to this day… It was reprinted by DWB. I think that we knew Howard from our DWAS Local Group. How nice to see that it is finding a new life 30+ years later. Cheers – Neil
