The Nerva Beacon Podcast - Episode 42: Mysterio Chrimblemas


Our last episode of 2020 concerns one of the Christmas specials that seems to get short shrift, and we don't really know why here at the Nerva Beacon - all the way back from 2016 it's The Return of Doctor Mysterio! Steven Moffat's take on superheroes, this was where we learned that Nardole was now the Doctor's companion, AND that the Doctor himself was partly responsible for the creation of the world's premier superhero, the Ghost!

Thanks as always for listening, and have a safe and Happy New Year if you can, right?

Episode 435 - Christmas and Hogmanay 1988 with the Bordersdude!


It's the odd period of time between Christmas and New Year, so what better time to spend it listening about Christmases past, especially 1988, with John the Bordersdude! As he's from Scotland, why don't we throw in a bit of Hogmanay whilst we're at it?

Have a very happy and safe New Year gang, and here's hoping 2021 is a way better year than 2020. The bar is astonishingly low.

This week we're joined by YouTube creator, actor, podcaster and all round good guy Adam Martyn to talk about his love of idents and presentation, especially around Christmastime! And to ensure that he has a totally unbiased view of the Eighties, he did us the favour of being born 20 years after they finished!

We also take a look at the TV listings from 1987, so please join us, and get excited for Christmasses past!
