Update!

Heres A Quick Update From Me!

Adam has asked me to post my opinions on the Siltheen and the Regeration effects.
1st, the Silthteen. I think the Siltheen are a bit of a joke.
They are good aliens/monsters but theytryed to make them funny rarther then scary
E.g. Farting or "Gas Exchange"

2nd The Regeration effects. My Favourite is the Hartnel To Troughtan Effect!
There's an Specal Feature on Regeration on "The War Games DVD"
They talk about All of the regerations (So far) but i think there all good (some more than others).
I'm looking forward to seeing the Tennant- Smith regeration!
I have heard a few rumors and one seems like it actully happen.

Heres some News aticles. That may intrest you!

Hello again…

In episode two of the podcast we talked about regenerations… I want to know what your favourite regeneration effect is, the look of the regeneration – So, are you a Hartnell’s White Glow fan or an Eccleston’s Big Balls of Fire man? – Be sure to vote in our poll at the side and leave a comment here about why you like the particular effect…

We also asked how you classified episodes of Doctor Who, if you have an interesting method then make a note of it in your comment and share it with the world!

Mr David Tennant is still at the top of that league of extraordinary gentlemen which we call The Shadow Proclamations Doctor of the Week, it only takes a second to change that, so make sure that your favourite Doctor takes the top spot next week.

Finally, I’d like to congratulate Peter on a fantastic first news report – well done mate, keep up the good work – you can leave a message for him here, or indeed when he makes his blog post soon this week.

As always, thank you for listening and taking part in the show,

Adam@ShadowProclamations

PS… My microphone *STILL* isn’t recording properly, I’ll be using the one built into my laptop to record the next podcast once again. Anyway, how does it sound on your iPods? Can you hear it? Drop me an e-mail at shadowproclamations@live.co.uk telling me.

Episode 2

We're having Microphone Blues here at Shadow Proclamations Towers... The reason for delay was that the new and improved audio equipment which I was going to use to record broke after about three words... Whilst trying to fix it I've recorded it onto the same microphone used in the previous episodes, the one built into my laptop.
Anyway, heres the podcast:
