"The thing is, Adam, time travel is like visiting Paris. You can't just read the guide book. You've got to throw yourself in, eat the food, use the wrong verbs, get charged double and end up kissing complete strangers -- or is that just me? Stop asking questions. Go and do it!"
-- The Ninth Doctor to Adam Mitchell, Doctor Who: "The Long Game"
Hello again, everyone! Special guest companion Hannah Skorapa makes her debut on Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast to help me discuss "The Long Game", the seventh episode from Doctor Who Series One in 2005, starring Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor, Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, Bruno Langley as Adam Mitchell, and Simon Pegg as The Editor!
In this episode, Hannah and I discuss things like how Hannah got into Doctor Who, Hannah's favorite Doctor and her thoughts on Jodie Whittaker, more on the sense of fan entitlement, Yaz being replaced by a potted plant in Series 11, fan-favorite actor Simon Pegg, Christine Adams on Black Lightning, Russell T. Davies originally wanting to write "The Long Game" from Adam's perspective, Rose being really quick to drop her boyfriends, the creepiness of the Ninth Doctor and Rose as a couple, Rose grounding the cosmic nature of the Doctor, the Ninth Doctor giving Adam unlimited money, Adam's plan to transmit really important information from the far future into his 2012 answering machine, wondering why the Doctor left Adam with the future forehead window for people to find, the IDW Publishing 50th anniversary comic series Doctor Who: Prisoner of Time where Adam becomes a bad guy, fans wanting the previous showrunner back after constantly griping about them, wondering why the Doctor kicked out Adam but kept Rose after "Father's Day", Cathica being pissed off she was never promoted, Suki having a secret identity as a freedom fighter, Simon Pegg chewing the scenery as The Editor, The Editor being the Jagrafess' handler, wondering why the TARDIS doesn't translate the Jagrafess, our favorite quotes of the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, new feedback from Holly Mac and David K. Proctor, our Next Stop Everywhere Christmas Special, and more!
