This review contains spoilers!
Stylistically really impressive and ambitious to have a story set entirely within a radio program, but I wish the actual story lived up to the ambitions of the concept.
When initially being met with the concept, stories like The Natural History of Fear and Creatures of Beauty naturally come to mind, but whereas those stories have a great concept which is heightened by the gripping story, here, the concept is doing all the heavy lifting. The story is your usual "The Doctor takes down a fascist government" plot, and that's about it, it is executed fine, but no better. I really wished they had gotten someone like Jim Mortimore or Rob Shearman in for the writing, because with someone like that at the helm this could have been truly amazing, as it stand it is really good, but no better.
8/10
