After several complaints (Who fans!) I’ve changed it!
Also yes I just realised the novelisations of TV stories should not really be required for the badge, I think I will remove them from the Set and just mark them as adaptations.

Yay! The Power of Fandom!
And I agree about the novelisations.
Thank you for doing this Shauny of Peladon.

Oh that just gave me an idea, if I called the badge just “Of Peladon” then when you complete it you’d be able to name yourself: NAME Of Peladon

What do we think?

Well, Queen Thalira was the first picture related to Peladon that came up with a a good easily usable picture that could be converted to a badge when I did a search. I was thinking of Aggador, but side views kept coming up…

Oooh - I like that, but would the title look a bit odd on the badge by itself?
(Also - why the **** does @BillFiler get the title before ME!)

Nah I like it, I’m doing it! Decision made!
And I used Bill to demonstrate it because you have the shield icon in the way, wouldn’t have looked as good, nothing personal!

Hmmm, should we change…?
Nah, just kidding! It’s great now!
But oh no! Another badge to earn! And I don’t even like the Peladon stories very much!
But I survived K9! So I should survive this!
(Oh, and what is a cassette? Never heard of them here in the North! Is it something you can eat?) <— this is a joke, btw

But are the other Peladon stories that good? I thought the TV once was just okay.

The Curse of Peladon is really good and I’m a fan of Monster, even though received wisdom tells us it’s a step down and overlong due to being a six parter.
I don’t actually remember much about Prisoner or Bride so I’m excited to re-listen to those. Legacy I remember enjoying reading way back when and I’m very much looking forward to the Peladon box set because I heard good things about it when it was first released - and it’s got McGann, Baker, Langford and Kingston as well as Troughton back as King Peladon, so the cast at least is enticing.

Ah… It’s been so long since I last seen a coin. (What? You thought I was gonna say cassette?)

More David Troughton-read audiobook this evening up to the end of what would be Episode 2.
Pertwee does better voices than Troughton for the alien delegates but Troughton has Geoffrey Toone’s (Hepesh) delivery down pat.
Aside from that this part doesn’t really add anything to the story beyond what is seen on screen - although the mentions of an alliance between Earth and Peladon through the possibility of KIng Peladon marrying the Earth princess Josephine get a tiny bit more attention in the scene after Arcturus’s fake attack.
