This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.
Previous Story: The City of Spires
Pretty weak, as far as companion chronicles go. Fraser Hines' narration is fantastic as always but even he can't save a story when it's this mediocre. There isn't really a point in this existing, I feel like either they should have gotten Colin Baker aswell or just not bothered and I say that as someone who loves the companion chronicles.
I quite liked the atmosphere, that's one thing a full-cast story could never replicate. The Reverend is a delightfully evil character played very well by Hugh Ross. Besides all that, I don't get this one. I feel like it would have been much better served as a Second Doctor era story maybe as a prelude to the 6/Jamie stuff.
