War Room is soooo good for Leela. It really is a difference like day and night. I love her!

Also fun fact I wrote this with a couple minutes left to go as it was happening, so didn’t realise HE DID THIS FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

I really would love Trey/Romana iii back - she’s in Intervention Earth but nothing else

I’ve heard that apparently Lalla doesn’t want her back? Which is weird if true considering she didn’t even create the character and wasn’t the first incarnation…
Edit: also knowing this I’m 100% buying Luna Romana on sale now I guess lol

I have heard that too, I think it’s because Lalla just loves Romana so much and feels possessive of her, especially because Juliet is in theory her replacement

So I’m thinking about finally getting into Gallifrey over the summer. Not sure if I actually will (I need to look at how much that would cost me) but so many people have talked about how cool it is, and I feel like everything I hear about it is stuff I’d like. For anyone who caught up recently or semi-recently, how long did it take you?

My first ever listen probably took me over the course of six months or so. Fortunately at least the first three seasons are old enough that they’re not too expensive and they are a complete story in themselves if you wanted to start gently

Took me about 6 weeks I think, but I was pretty obsessed and listened to practically nothing else lol

I listened to the first three series with audio Club extra, so that was from end of October 24 to mid-January. Then I listened to S4 until Enemy Lines in about three weeks, and all the time war and war room ones took me about three and a half. I did take a two week break in between because I had to wait to get the time war ones for my birthday. All in all, that was about six months.
But you can really vary that speed as much as you like and you don’t have to catch up completely right away either. There’s loads of natural feeling stopping points in between (okay it does sometimes depend on your ability to tolerate a cliffhanger. But fans had to and do have to wait years in between at times so you’ll be fine). So if you’re not sure if you want to do all of it right away, the first three series are a good start and contain some of the best stories of the whole series!

A download of Series 1 from BF costs £20 which is pretty good value. The first 3 series are £60 together.

First three seasons took me a couple months but due to the shortened lengths of 5 and 6 and just how into S4 I was I did finish those in 3 weeks lmao. Once you get into Gallifrey trust me when I say you’ll be hooked

Disassembled - 10/10
Wow. Just wow.
Disassembled is a masterclass in this form of storytelling, I absolutely adore it.
Last time, we had ‘what if Gallifrey were capitalist’, this time it’s a classic ‘what if they were fascists’, and in the Spirit of Inferno, you can’t help but love to see what our core cast would become in that environment. Seeing these time lords being fully in on intervening is terrifying, the story opening on just such casual use of the De-mat Gun really does just set the stakes for this story, and the danger our core cast are in.
The alternate versions of cast we see as well are just great. Our Romana has had moments where it seems she might take the darker path, but she never quite falls to it, and even when she does, it’s always done with the best of intentions, meanwhile the one we see here has fully fallen into the ‘ends justify the means’ mindset. Our Leela was able to find a home on Gallifrey as herself, the Interrogater General modifed her life on Mordee so that she fit in better here, while no longer a ‘savage’, her actions are more savage than our world’s Leela ever was.
And then there’s Lord Burner. I love the misdirection we get with him initially helping our crew, finding his way back to the Axis. The fact we think the paradox is happening from the Interrogator General being in the Axis alongside Narvin, whom she killed on her world (which is another thing they do that I love), but then the eventual reveal about what the title of Lord Burner truly means, Brax confiding the history of the position of Romana, and the lore implications of what he says. I absolutely adore that Brax was the burner, and I love his mention of the refusal to kill The Doctor, instead killing the president and making it look like an accident. Brax has already somewhat been built up as this all powerful all knowledgable figure, but this moment really does just bring it to the forefront, and makes you question the danger a person like him could pose.
I also love Brax and Burner’s confrontation, Brax’s line as he falls into the portal paralleling The Master in Planet of Fire, with the implication here being very clear. And then the bit at the end, with Brax meeting Benny for the first time (in his timeline) makes me want to listen to her stories more than I think anything else I’ve seen her in has done.
Overall, yeah, this story was incredible, and once again I’m so so glad I started listening to this series.
