This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.
Previous Story: Tomb Ship
A definite improvement over the last two but still nothing remarkable. The beginning to this was very interesting and I enjoy the mystery that comes from stories set in simulated or fictional realities. It does get boring fairly quickly and I'm not really sure what the "Steamroller Man" is supposed to be, it's just silly in a way that distracts from the story in my opinion.
The new companion, so forgettable I've already forgot her name was unsurprisingly fairly forgettable for most of this, although she did get a fascinating ending that almost made me care about her. Still, this story would not have been very different without her. It really is saying something when a character can seem bland and uninteresting next to Nyssa of all people.
Not bad like the last two but still fairly boring, this whole little trilogy can be skipped without any great loss.
