Review of Brimstone and Terror by OliverGreene

5 July 2025

I love the Missy series, I’ve liked every episode so far to some extent, this one I liked a little bit less than A Spoonful Of Mayhem, the opening episode to the series which this forms a sequel to, although it does add Mr Strackie (Strax doing a Scottish accent, lovely stuff). I quite liked Oliver and Lucy in the first one, and the overall plot was very fun, but Lucy is a little bit stiff here, and Missy’s overall plan is kind of fun but a bit superfluous and more one-dimensional. Lots of stuff I loved about the setting, Roy Gill can write as many Scottish-set episodes as he likes, but I did prefer the greater variety in A Spoonful. 3.75/5
