The other thing I’m noticing is how young McGann sounds.
I find it funny in these earlier audios with him where, yes, he sounds really young, but also as the years have gone on in the audios he’s started sounding more and more Northern, which is delightful to me
An enjoyable romp through time with a fun villain, a triumphant return of a Classic monster (The Nimon) and a great cast. And then, at the end, the season arc hits us like a cannonball full across bow leaving us with questions about what’s coming next. These questions won’t be answered until Neverland, but they definitely work to keep one interested in the arc that’s building up here. I guess I’d rate this a 9.5/10.
Love this one! Not the deepest, but if they ever wanted to do a theatrical Movie of Doctor Who (i know we got that with the Daleks Movie, but they were more Daleks Movies than Doctor Who), this one would be pretty much a good Inspiration for.
On another note, I always have a big soft spot for Stories, where we travel to different settings in each of the Episodes. How the Story starts is amazing and I really love it! The Humor here is pretty great, and I think Eight and Charley are at some of their best as a duo here. After Chimes this is such a perfect comforting “actiony” Story, which mixes some aspects of Keys of Marinus and City of Death into a delightful romp!
Big Fan of the Story!
I rather enjoyed this one. Probably more than Chimes.
Great voice acting, varied plot locations. Funny moments, serious moments.
Good stuff. 4/5.
