This was awesome. My favourite Gallifrey audio yet. 9/10 for me, as it has that one ingredient I’ve been looking for in this series since the beginning - it’s weird. Wonderfully strange, alien, and full of weird time travel shenanigans. I found the first set very middling but this makes me excited I’m going to be in for a fun ride.

Having both Romanas in the story was a delightful surprise I was completely unaware was going to happen.  That was great and has lots of fun bits to it.  All the characters were really on point here.  Brax is extremely fun and I love his mere existence having these nice connective ties to the Bernice Summerfield stories.  Even K9 had some great lines and funny bits of attitude.  As much as I found the first box set to be quite average in quality it definitely goes a long way into building up and setting up almost every great moment in Lies.  It feels like I might be recommending the whole range at this rate.
