Bob Baker and Dave Martin were a writing partnership that contributed many creative Doctor Who stories during the 1970s across the Pertwee and Baker Doctors including The Claws of Axos, The Mutants, The Armageddon Factor, and The Hand of Fear.

They were also responsible for the creation of K9, who first appeared in The Invisible Enemy and went on to become one of the most beloved characters in the Doctor Who universe.

Tonight, we examine how Bob and Dave came together, how they began writing for Doctor Who, what they wrote over a near decade partnership, and give some comment on each of the stories they wrote.

Before then, all the usual news and short topics you've come to expect, and after the Bob and Dave segment, we have listener feedback and what we've been watching this past month. A jam-packed episode! Tune in!

Dave took a quick visit up to Sydney recently, and the 16th of November saw him catch up with Rob, in-person.

For this latest meeting, our fun, lo-fi, hotel room recording vibe is back. Strap in for, ‘Rob and Dave Unplugged 4’ where, this time around, the guys canvassed their social media followers for questions about anything and everything!

Come and spend some time with the guys, talking everything from favourite movies to why Rob doesn't go to live Doctor Who events.

This month we combine a couple of suggestions from listeners and examine Doctor Who adventures that would have made a good yarn to set a regeneration in, versus what we actually got at the end of a Doctor's era. Can you think of any stories that fit this category?
