Audio Club: The Genocide Machine

I pretty much agree with @BillFiler here. Solid enjoyable fun and, oh what a joy to have the Daleks back. Some nice ideas that, yes, could have been fleshed out a little more but were still interesting early in the range. It’s good fun and, most crucially for theor first Big Finish story, it really feels like a Dalek story to me.

Also, I heartily agree with your assertion, Bill, that the Seventh Doctor can do outrage like no other Doctor. There are others who can match him (the Fourth Doctor’s disgust at the Captain’s acievements [Pirate Planet], the Third Doctor’s contempt for the Controller [Day of the Daleks] or Chinn [Axos]), but stylistically different. I love McCoy’s delivery in moments like this!

Welcome Josh!

Really enjoyed your animation, even if as you say the story is quite mid. Watching it along with the audio certainly helped keep me focused on the story, as otherwise I tend to end up looking elsewhere and reading and then I get totally lost.

Feel free to pop into Introductions so we can welcome you properly (even if most of us will know who you are)!
