    »Das Kairós-Experiment« Eine A-Little-More-Sonic- Doctor Who- Audiogeschichte – Prod. 4/7 – 1. Draft – Buch: Elmar Vogt 4. August 2015 »kairoV, 1D« – Version: 4. August 2015 Elmar Vogt, Fürth – http://littlemoresonic.wordpress.com – [email protected] Personen (5 |, 3 ~) Sergeant Benton : Mitglied von U.n.i.t seit der Gründungszeit. Ein einfaches Gemüt, allerdings mit einem feinen Gespür für die Charaktere der Menschen. Er ist sehr loyal dem Brigadier und dem Doctor gegenüber und hat auch eine Schwäche für Sarah-Jane; allerdings kann er ihrem emanzipierten Wesen oft nicht ganz folgen. Doctor #3 (John Pertwee) : Von seinem Vorgänger als »Dandy« bezeichnet besitzt diese Inkarnation einen extravaganten Stil sowohl bezüglich seiner Kleidung als auch seines Charakters. Er ist weniger moralisch orientiert als seine Vorgänger, und mit seiner Vorliebe für technischen Schnickschnack eher ein Mann der Tat mit James-Bond-Anklängen. Sarah-Jane Smith : Ursprünglich Reporterin wurde sie später zum Companion des Doctors und zur Mitarbeiterin von U.n.i.t. Sie ist eine sehr emanzipierte, couragierte und eigenständige Frau, die mit ihrem Durchsetzungsvermögen leicht einmal aneckt. Der Doctor akzeptiert ihre Art mit einem gewissen überlegenen Amüsement: Auch wenn sie für einen menschlichen Mann emanzipiert ist und mit diesem mithalten kann, kann sie doch nicht mit dem Doctor mithalten, so seine Einstellung. Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart : Kommandierender Offizier von U.n.i.t, von dem meist nur als dem »Brig« gesprochen wird. Ein Berufssoldat alter Schule, für den Pflichterfüllung und Disziplin einen sehr hohen Stellenwert besitzen, hinter denen selbst seine persönlichen Gefühle zurückstehen müssen. Während er von seinen Männern Gehorsam erwartet, stellt er sich auch jederzeit schützend vor sie.

  • Doctor Who: Day of the Daleks
    DOCTOR WHO AND THE DAY OF THE DALEKS By TERRANCE DICKS Based on the BBC television serial Doctor Who and the Day of the Daleks by Louis Marks by arrangement with the British Broadcasting Corporation 1 Terror in the Twenty-second Century Moni sat up and looked around cautiously. The enormous dormitory was packed with sleeping forms, drugged into total exhaustion by hours of brutal physical toil. One or two murmured and twisted and cursed in their sleep. A man screamed, 'No, no, please don't...' and then his voice tailed off into the mutterings of a nightmare. Moni saw that it was Soran. He had been beaten by the guards that morning for failing to meet his work-norm. Soran was weakening daily. He wouldn't last much longer. Somehow the incident seemed to give Moni courage. It was for Soran that he was fighting. Soran and thousands like him who would die in the work camps from brutal beatings, or worn out after years of grinding labour, unless... unless... Moni threw back the coarse blankets and swung his feet to the floor. There was nothing unusual in his being fully dressed. The dormitories weren't heated and most of his fellows slept fully clothed against the night cold. Vaguely Moni remembered having heard of a time when men had special clothes to sleep in - called py-something or other. His mind could scarcely imagine such luxury. Moni fished his boots from beneath his pillow. He'd put them there automatically the night before. The boots were made of new strong plastic, and in the work camps nothing valuable was safe unless it was within touching distance.

  • Doctor Who: the Ambassadors of Death
    Seven months after it left Mars there has still been no radio communication with the Probe Seven spacecraft or the astronauts inside it. Back on Earth concern is mounting and eventually a recovery capsule is sent up to rescue the astronauts. But when the capsule returns to Earth it is found to be empty. As the Doctor and Liz investigate, they discover that the interior of the capsule is highly radioactive: if anyone was inside they would now surely be dead. Have the astronauts indeed returned to Earth? And if not, who are the sinister space-suited figures who stalk the countryside and whose very touch means instant death?...

  • Using Digital Humanities Tools to Investigate Shipping Claims in the Third Doctor Era of Doctor Who
    The UNIT “Dating” Crisis: Using Digital Humanities tools to investigate shipping claims in the Third Doctor era of Doctor Who by Mara Katz Submitted to the Undergraduate Faculty of The Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2014 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This thesis was presented by Mara Katz It was defended on April 8, 2014 and approved by Dr. David J. Birnbaum, Professor, Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures Dr. Na-Rae Han, Lecturer, Department of Lingustics Dr. Lori Levin, Associate Research Professor, Carnegie Mellon University Language Technologies Institute Dr. David R. Mortensen, Assistant Professor, Department of Linguistics ii The UNIT “Dating” Crisis: Using Digital Humanities tools to investigate shipping claims in the Third Doctor era of Doctor Who Mara Katz University of Pittsburgh, 2014 Copyright © by Mara Katz 2014 iii Participants in a conversation commonly use terms of address to index interpersonal status and solidarity among interlocutors. Such terms are crucial in fiction, film, and television scripts in guiding audiences in their construction of the relationships among characters. In this thesis, I examine the use of terms of address in episodes of the BBC television drama Doctor Who from the first half of the 1970s. In particular, I look at the role those terms play in fans’ practice of shipping characters. “Shipping,” or theorizing the existence of subtextual romantic relationships between “pairings” of characters, is a common fan practice. I conclude that the shipping choices fans make do not appear to correlate with the use of terms of address between characters.

  • Doctor Who: the Terrors of Autons
    DOCTOR WHO AND THE TERROR OF THE AUTONS By TERRANCE DICKS Based on the BBC television serial by Robert Holmes by arrangement with the British Broadcasting Corporation 1 The Terror Begins Luigi Rossini came down the steps of his caravan and looked about him with satisfaction. Most people wouldn’t have seen much cause for pleasure—a tatty little circus setting up in a muddy field. But Luigi Rossini, who had been born Lew Ross in Hoxton fifty years ago, saw things differently. The wagons and caravans might be worn and shabby, the elephants old and tired, the lions and tigers mangy—but the Circus Rossini was his. He was the Boss. And that was what Luigi Rossini enjoyed. The little circus never made very much money. It was too small to book the profitable sites, and had to be content with little village greens and shabby suburban recreation grounds. But Rossini had his own way of making money. He hired only the deadbeats, the down-and-outs of the circus profession; those who for one reason or another could never get a job with the big, posh outfits. Some were too old, or too incompetent. Some, like Tony the strong man, were on the run from the police. Rossini hired them all, and paid them starvation wages, knowing they wouldn’t dare to ask for more. All the profits went into his own pockets, paying for the flashy suits, the diamond rings and the big cigars that fitted Rossini’s picture of himself as international showman. Anyone who objected was soon beaten into submission by Rossini’s big fists.
