Crisis at Gallifrey: Pedantor Axed in RFS Plot
< We regret to announce that due to corporate restructuring, Radio Free Skaro Executive Chairman Michael Grade has decided to rightsize its current on-air team. As a result, the position held by Chris from Edmonton (aka Pedantor) has been affected. Chris’s behaviour and predilections over the past several days are counter to our current vision and are detrimental to the image we wish to portray here at Radio Free Skaro. Because of this decision, we will be unable to present a podcast to you on Friday at Gallifrey. However, we can assure you that this is only a hiatus, and Radio Free Skaro will return later even better than ever! |

Radio Free Skaro #184 – Feasts of Stevens
< In the second of our daily Gallifrey podcasts, the Three Who Rule delved into the shiny, circular world of Who on DVD with special guests Steve Roberts of the Restoration Team and Steve Manfred of the Doctor Who DVD FAQ. Behind the scenes documentaries, animated Who, and the dicey state of the TV Movie ever appearing in North America were only a few of the topics covered by these fine gentlemen. All that and news, special appearances by fellow podcasters, and the usual whimsy you’ve come to expect from us. Enjoy! |

Radio Free Skaro #183 – The Elephant in the Room
< Day One of Gallifrey for Radio Free Skaro was a wild, crazy time, consisting mostly of a vast podcast summit between several renowned Doctor Who podcasters, as well as ourselves. Some of this podcest made its way up to The Lobby at the LAX Marriott, where eight podcasters, including a rare appearance from all four members of Tachyon TV, succeeded in firmly planting their feet in their mouths. Be warned… |

SPACE Podcast – February 23, 2010
<
On the latest SPACE Podcast, the Three Who Rule talk of pros and cons about a Doctor Who movie, a rumour that never seems to go away for very long. Would it be good or bad overall? Have a listen!]]>
Radio Free Skaro #182 – The Oncoming Storm
< With mere days to go before Gallifrey 2010 in Los Angeles, the Three Who Rule took it upon themselves to conduct their now-annual rundown of the panels, guests, goings-on and shenanigans sure to occur, all in the name of informing our dear listeners how often we’ll be hung over (answer: often.) Stay tuned all this week for daily podcasts, special guests and the most fun you can legally have involving Doctor Who and cast of thousands (well, a thousand and change.) Not all was silent from The Beeb this week, however, as the start date for Series Fnarg has been announced for April 3 on BBC One, hot on the heels of the new trailer for Matt Smith’s debut run. |

Second Series Fnarg Trailer
< The Three Who Rule created their own news this week by dropping a small bombshell into the world of Doctor Who fandom by being the first to reveal official BBC details of the upcoming Series Fnarg. Once that was coyly dealt with, and after a dark, sinister, and negative experience watching The End of Time Part One last week, the Three Who Rule were in finer spirits for their second outing in Finale-Stan, the catchily-titled “The End of Time Part Two”. Between Chris’s endless (no really, they just wouldn’t end) gags about slash writers and the occasionally engaging spectacle onscreen, your erstwhile hosts proved to be much more affable on this leg of the excursion, and bile was replaced by hope and optimism as Matt Smith crashed onto our screens and into our coal-black, ginger-hating hearts. Geronimo. |

Series Fnarg Details Revealed in BBC Release
< Radio Free Skaro has stumbled upon an official BBC release promoting the upcoming Series 1 (aka Series Fnarg) of Matt Smith’s tenure as The Doctor. Not only does the release state that the first episode, The Eleventh Hour, will be 60 minutes long, but it gives a few tantalizing details of the series to come. From the release:
|
Very exciting stuff! Interesting to note that the series is also billed as “Series 5” in the release – how confusing! As always, stay tuned to http://www.radiofreeskaro.com for all your Doctor Who news leading up to Matt Smith’s debut as the Doctor in the spring. |

Matthew Graham to write for Series Fnarg+1?
<
Friend of the site Simon Brew over at Den of Geek is reporting that Matthew Graham, creator of the landmark series Life on Mars and its follow-up Ashes to Ashes, and of course best known in the Doctor Who world for writing Fear Her in the second series of NuWho, will return to the Whoniverse in Series 6/2/32. No confirmation has yet come, however if this holds true he would be joining Neil Gaiman and (maybe) Jack Thorne in writing for Matt Smith’s sophomore outing.
Have a look at the report over at Den of Geek.]]>
