I joined the Trap One podcast to discuss The Tom Baker Record Collection, chatting with Mark, Conrad and Si. Demon Records celebrates Tom Baker’s portrayal of the famous Time Lord with this limited edition 4 LP vinyl box set, mixing thrilling audio drama with interviews and readings by the man himself. Genesis of the Daleks is the original …
The Death of Robert E Lee is Callan’s second missing episode and provides further insight into the early dynamics in the series. Callan remains ‘free’ of the Section but he can’t escape the world of espionage, even when it isn’t Hunter blackmailing him. The CIA request Hunter’s help to get hold of Li Pa Chao …
When I saw this episode’s title appear onscreen, it seemed vaguely familiar but I couldn’t remember what a corn dolly was.

Last episode’s title represented Death and I like that the biblical namings have continued with Genesis – the first book in the Bible – offering us a new beginning. Can Terry Nation keep these up? I hope so, even if my own biblical knowledge may become stretched quite quickly. If The Fourth Horseman was brutal …
ThePreacher711 has launched this new podcast series to ‘Seek, Locate & Interview Blake’s 7 fans from across the community’.
