WHO Corner to Corner | A Doctor Who Podcast

Doctor Who: The Happiness Patrol Part 1 | COMMENTARY

WHO C2C Season 1 Episode 179

If you're feeling sad this week then what better way to lift the blues than by listening in to your Happy Hosts, Paul L and Geoff C as they cast their swirly eyes over the sinister goings-on in the dark streets of Terra Alpha in the iconic 7th Doctor story, The Happiness Patrol.

Is it a satire? Is it a dig at the Thatcher government? 
Is it a Kafkaesque exploration of Jungian archetypes with a bunch of sweets?
Or is it just a totally bonkers script brought to life by a production team having a lot of fun behind the cameras?

One thing is for sure, once you've seen The Happiness Patrol, you won't forget it!

So stop being a Killjoy, switch up your brightest smile (don't forget the dimples!) and join us for a commentary that is sure to liven up the rainiest of rainy days!

Remember: Happiness WILL prevail!!
