It's time for the vegetables to start eyeing up the meat, which they might like to wash down with a lovely Molotov cocktail. The Krynoid gets chatty, the Doctor gets ratty and Chase goes batty as the plants get a life of their own in this atmospheric and tense instalment. But will DVD documentarist Chris Chapman be on the same page as your host? Let's see eh?

Well, you host Toby Hadoke has thoroughly enjoyed revisiting this story : always a favourite and age has not withered it. The difficulty here is restricting the favourite things to one per episode, and even with the bonus this week some key contributors still miss out. If this is your first time experiencing this story, then both Toby and special guest Chris Chapman (Blu-ray documentary director) are green with envy.

Having sowed The Seeds of Doom with Chris Chapman, how about we enjoy some more fruits from this nourishing tale? Veteran actor Michael McStay, fresh from celebrating his 90th birthday, talks to Toby about his long career, and how his Doctor Who beard ensured he kept the job even after a disaster. Michael has just released a memoir, "Inconsequential and Irrelevant : A Worm's Eye View of Acting", which you can order from www.quoitmedia.co.uk : it's forthright, witty and honest, and contains all sorts of stories of interest to listeners of this podcast.

A temporary director, a World War II hero and a future star of the Biritish classical stage all pop in this week, but one of the regulars is far from happy nd fires of a letter filled with grievances. And that's just offscreen - as far as the viewers are concerned it's all hunky-dory: except for today's viewers of course, because this is the first instalment without telesnaps or moving footage, so it's the earliest episode of the show for which we have no evidence at all of what it looked like on screen. A mystery inside an enigma inside a Reithean tale of travel and treachery.

Gosh, Time Travellers of the Toby Hadoke Kind will have a Polo overload right now, as it's currently the subject of both HappY times and Places and Too Much Information. That's a pure coincidence, but frankly, you can't have too much of this epic tale. Actually, it would be nice to have some of it, any of it, to see, because ... 7 episodes. All missing. Yikes. Fortunately, the special guest is a veteran fan who was there at the time. He's also an extremely erudite and learned man - the one and only J Jeremy Bentham, author of the seminal book Doctor Who - The Early Years. So whilst the prospect of tackling this missing tale is somewhat daunting, the chance of hearing Jeremy's thoughts and observations is too exciting a prospect to turn down. So buckle up and join your host Toby Hadoke in his caravan of love for an epic trip into history...

Amidst a bit of middle class angst there is *some* stuff about Doctor Who this week, which, considering the main character isn't in the episode that much, is a sort of bonus. An oasis in the desert if you like. Thank goodness for the mighty Jeremy Bentham who is a top drawer guest to guide us through the storm of stuttering provided by your host.

Well, it's been pretty painless so far despite being the show's first entirely missing story. There's plenty to talk about - a war hero cast member, another who went onto to great things on the classical stage and another who does your host's standout part of the episode. But will guest Jeremy Bentham choose the same moment, or will the eyes have it?

A new director (for one week only), lots of fun with metaphors and a cave wall with rolling eyes give your host Toby Hadoke and guest Jeremy Bentham much to mull over as they reach the halfway point of this missing but much admired adventure.

So, the Doctor Who Crossword Book, a mystery actor and the nature of studio bound fights all get attention in this instalment which finds a new character entering the fray in Marco Polo, and bringing with him plenty of educational content. Lord Reith would be happy, but would he be as happy as your host and our guest, Jeremy Bentham - and are they the same kind of happy? Times and places will tell.

The travellers meet Mighty Kublai Khan and so there are scenes of two very old men bonding over shared interests. In unrelated news, Toby Hadoke and J Jeremy Bentham pour over the treasures to be played for in this episode of Doctor Who, which are probably enough to sustain the population of Burma for a whole year...!
