This is an exciting time to be a Doctor Who fan! Here on Type 40, we’re passing the months until the Time Lord’s story resumes by revisiting times & spaces and faces past: The third actor to take the role, Jon Pertwee was an extraordinary man by any measure. Regular hosts Dan and Simon are joined for the first time by actor and lifelong fan Stephen Noonan to look back on the lasting appeal of Pertwee’s formidable take on the Doctor. And review his 1974 classic Death to the Daleks… Join them comparing drastically different experiences with this era and views on the story itself. The Third Doctor remains one of the most recognisable of all, 50 years on. This final encounter with his oldest foes makes for the perfect entry in our Diamond Review Series. Stream or download HERE!

Type 40 • A Doctor Who Podcast Episode 130: Double Feature – Daleks Invasion Earth 2150AD Six decades worth history of the world’s longest running Sci-Fi & Fantasy television series is rich with time warps and cultural events. Some impacted away from the sofa altogether! The Daleks had filled cinemas and stormed the silver screen once. Could they do it again a year later? “Daleks Invasion Earth 2150AD” had more money, more Daleks, location shooting and a cast full of great British character actors. Once more led by Horror icon, the late Peter Cushing as Dr.Who! Join our panel for this affectionate, excitable review of a movie that’s remained a Bank Holiday favourite, so often repeated on television and recently re-released looking better than ever on 4K and Blu Ray. The much missed Ian MacLachlan (1953-2022) was an extraordinary man and arguably the first Doctor Who fan. Type 40: A Doctor Who Podcast is proud to have spent time with him. We know he’d want you to enjoy this conversation as much as we did, having it.
