Review of Mask of Tragedy by thedefinitearticle63

This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: Revenge of the Swarm


I'm not sure what this story is trying to be. It's a pretty straightforward historical (coming off the back of a long arc of ridiculously high stakes). But then it's also trying to be a comedy sometimes? It doesn't end up being all that funny and to be completely honest I checked out about halfways through.

Hector got some interesting character stuff atleast, but I still don't really get the point of bringing back Hex (but not Hex). It just feels quite odd, if you've got the same voice actor why make them play a different character. Hopefully it will be resolved enjoyably but that still won't change the fact that this story is not that great.
