I listened to the audiobook version narrated by Jacqueline King, and what a delight that was. She's done so many voices for Big Finish from Sylvia, to God, to Baba Yaga, I knew she'd be a great narrator and that she was. The voices for the characters, the Meep! Superb. The story itself doesn't diverge a huge amount from the original however I really like the addition of the milkman from the Stolen Earth. Its a surprising return, but it really adds a lovely little bit to the story which I already liked a lot. The story takes quite a lot of time to get to the meat and bones of the tv story, but when it does its full steam ahead. I would've liked perhaps more of Shirley, and the Nobles, but I did still thoroughly enjoy it nonetheless. I never vibed with the placement of the non-binary line it felt odd, so it was removed here which stuck out as one of the only removed lines. The whole "she'd have understood" bit is sadly still there, I still do not like this part of the story one bit.
