あらすじ・解説
Bafflegab! We’re off to Calufrax (or is it Xanak?) in search of the second segment of the Key to Time, where a cybernetic old pirate and a decaying old Queen are busy declaring new golden ages of prosperity and destroying other planets. That’s right, we’re discussing Douglas Adams’ first contribution to Doctor Who with The Pirate Planet! Join us as we discuss Douglas Adams’ outstanding dialogue and ability to build big plot concepts, the coming of the 80s fashion, metalhead guards, ominously pleasant psychics, and robot battles! Of course, we just have to imagine what might have been if the Captain had been played by Brian Blessed instead of Bruce Purchase!
