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

Previous Story: No Place Like Home

Thank God that's over. I've listened to some awful stories on my chronological watchthrough *cough* The Boy That Time Forgot *cough* but this one is by far the worst. I'm not going to bother with a long review but this is genuinely some of the worst Doctor Who or Doctor Who adjacent material I have ever had the misfortune of listening to. Obviously there are the notorious scenes and they're as bad as you'd think but it's the consistently awful dialogue that I also despise. None of the characters are written like they're supposed to be. The Doctor is written with such disregard for his companions, Peri is suddenly completely incompetent and poor Erimem is only two stories in and she's already gone through something awful and the worst part is neither Peri nor the Doctor even cared! I'll choose to picture this story as an awful collective nightmare that they all had until I forget about it's existence (hopefully soon).
