I gave these a go yesterday,
It’s quite fun,
I like the character dynamics a lot.
Shame it’s a bit of an obscure BF range that not many know about.
Nat and Josh are great aren’t they? And I think it’s such an interesting take on what happens to you as an ex-companion because Sarah is mean and paranoid and jumpy and it’s because she saw stuff with the Doctor that has impacted her for life. She wants to save the world but she has no idea how to get along with human beings
Comeback: I love this take on Sarah. She is indeed much darker than in SJA and I love it. Her whole vibe is amazing. Also Nat is so cool and I didn’t expect Josh to be into starting fires? Very cool. I think I’ll be enjoying these very much
yayy I am happy to hear that! You’ve got quite the ride ahead…
The Tao Connection: not bad, but the first one was definitely better. Feels like not that much happened in this one. But it did have some nice character moments
Now to see about this perfectly normal audio that keeps getting mentioned
I have a fondness for Tao - I can fully appreciate people saying it’s not very good and the portrayal of the good people of Yorkshire is cringeworthy at best (classic BF anti-Northerners moment ) BUT it’s also hilarious. Sladen’s subpar accent is beautiful. Sarah and Josh bickering is gold. Whatever the hell is going on with all those side characters is so compelling to me. So yes, I can totally understand why people would not like it but I do
Test of Nerve: perfectly normal. can’t hurt you. okay, YES, THIS IS WHAT I’M HERE FOR! Wonderfully ■■■■■■ up. Nat! Her being forced out of her wheelchair and having to crawl out of the building is BRUTAL. And @natequarter just informed me Sadie Miller was seventeen at recording this?! Hell. Sarah is terrible and I love her for it. Incredible performance as well. Her choosing the city over Nat? Damn.
That is the Test of Nerve experience
It’s a great audio! Nothing horrifying going on at all <3
Ghost Town: I love this one. Sarah is just wonderful in this. She’s silly and paranoid and she gets frightened half to death. What more do you want
Mirror Signal Manœuvre: loved this one too. Sarah is so paranoid <3 and she’s not even wrong! Also Nat and Josh are amazing
A thrilling finale, I think. Completely bonkers but I love the way all the threads curl together at the end
Buried Secrets: damn this is good. a favourite for sure. first part with harry’s brother is so damn sad, and Elisabeth Sladen can ACT. the whole thing is great. poor Nat. she just keeps going through the horrors. AND SARAH GETS SHOT. please imagine my eternal delight at that. great stuff. that alone would make this audio a favourite
heheheh you like Sarah in pain?? Oh boy, she’s in for a world of pain yet >:)
The SJS audios are so good for Sarah getting hurt <3
and I will be having an amazing time about it!
It’s so fun to watch you experience Sarah experiencing the horrors in real time
I’m happy to be entertaining!
