Review of Black Orchid by KieranCooper

24 March 2025

  • Like Midsomer Murders meets Doctor Who is perfectly dramatic and good fun
  • Despite Tegan's insistent want to go home, it's truly great to see her relax and have a good time
  • This story perfectly makes use of its time frame and doesn't drag, a story that works well with it's parameters.
  • It's sweet to get a non-alien threat, it's refreshing but unfortunate the villain is someone with a representative visual psychical disability and they not only are murderous and insane but they also don't get the help they need
  • I like the little added element of Nyssa's doppelganger, adds that little bit of spice to the story, they really need to do that in the modern era
