Hosted by Glenn and his very special guests, this podcast is a virtual trip back in time to the halcyon days of our childhood - the 1980s (and early 1990s). Every week we explore at least one facet of 80's pop culture, discuss questions from our listeners, and report the news from at least 4 of the main franchises of the 80's that are still around today!

The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 13: Tears of a Clown

It's not only about the stories this week, it's about the politics, too. BBC politics, that is. When Colin Baker was cast as the Sixth Doctor, the knives came out, not only for him, but JNT and the whole of Doctor Who as well. This is (part of) the story of how they weathered the storm, and gave Doctor Who a stay of execution, for a while, at least.
