Forgive the new kind of cover, I'm learning new software here  (MAIN RANGE): The Arbiter's Lack Starring The Sixth Doctor as played by Colin Baker and Constance Clarke as played by Miranda Raison As with all Big Finish companion stories on this blog NO you don't need to know the character  you should, they're great but you don't need to  Chapter One There is no law on the planet Stylus. There aren't any Pens either, which is probably why they got away with naming it that, but there is, as said, no law. There is no crime either. Not strictly speaking, as well, everything is legal, but the things usually considered illegal do not happen there. Somebody said "Don't do it" a few generations back, and well, The Stylonians, (people of Stylus) happened to all be incredibly naive, and have not done any reprehensible thing since out of the mere fear that it could possibly enforced. As time went by, those people didn't do it, and well, eventually as the ...

  Vampire of The Mind by Justin Richards I enjoyed Vampire for most of the runtime, but there are a few deepseated issues in it that keep it solidly away from the brilliance of the rest of the trilogy it belongs to. First, Alex MacQueen. Ordinarily, a brilliant chap in these audios, but due to the effects of The Two Masters, he's so much less zany here, which makes him so much less fun. His loss is Beevers' gain, however.  Second, if you told me Colin Baker and Alex MacQueen would have a story together, I'd expect a story that's deeply based around their interactions. It's a match made in heaven, yet whereas Big Finish make two characters meeting eachother things like this usually phenomenal (See Romana/Leela, River with pretty much anyone, Suzie/Margaret, loads of other stuff) They don't really get to bounce off eachother because of the more subdued performance. What the story actually does do with it's runtime is so okay it's average. Mind Leech. Hoora...

  And You Will Obey Me by Alan Barnes And You Will Obey Me is a real Master piece, and don't you know it! It's an Incredibly solid and rather brilliantly plotted Master adventure in which the Master barely features, he's in less than a fourth of it, and the way it builds it's narrative around that is quite something, with the Grandfather clock, all of the espionage, and bits of Beevers leaking in more and more as the story goes on.  Beevers has always been a great Master, but for reasons later documented in The Two Masters, he's especially great here, even more than usual. The Master is best to me when you let them have fun, and Beevers gives a real wicked presence, and he plays off Davison as well as he did the two Baker's and McCoy in previous stories.  I usually get annoyed when a Dalek story takes 25 minutes to build up the Daleks' involvement, but And You Will Obey Me is so smart in the way it invents it's whole narrative around the character and hi...

She’s been gone for 50 years in her time, he hasn’t noticed. Somewhere in the Season One Gap.  Lottie comes from directly after All Flesh is Lettuce Chapter One The Doctor swung around the console. “Alright, so, here we go!” She said, cheerfully. “Time to dematerialize the TARDIS into the midnight first screening of John Wick Four-“  She pulled a lever, only for the TARDIS to not move at all, and Lottie Palaver to appear out of thin air on top of her hatstand.  "Ooh! Owchie! Owie!" Lottie blubbered as she fell.  "You!" The Doctor proclaimed. "How did you get into my TARDIS! I had it proofed, recently! Nothing can break inside!"  "Proofed against what? Like, Baby-Proofed? Dog-Proofed?" Lottie stuttered. "Angelina Jolie Proofed. But that's not the point!" The Doctor said lou...

  (MAIN RANGE): Genesis of the Humans Part Two Part 1 available  Here Men with spears advancing. Fire crackling. Harry and the Doctor squirming in their ropes. Monkeys snarling in the dark, the dark snarling with them. Sarah, eyes closed, hoping the Doctor’s plan would work. Knives slashing through the air, and then through the ropes. First the Doctor’s, then Harry’s, then Sarah’s. More snarling. The monkeys advanced. The chanting from the cavemen continued, merciless. Sarah was sick to her stomach - dying from some primitive ritual, and for what? And then... Nothing. The monkeys had disappeared. Vanished, into thin air. Harry was shocked. The early humans retreated and thrust their flaming torches forward, dumbfounded as to why they could no longer see something - a very large group of somethings - that was there just a second ago. They started muttering between themselves, then stopped. How do you talk about something you don’t understand when you barely have basic intellige...
