Besides the presence of Mark Gatiss as a voice actor, the tropes, style, and script are very reminiscent of his stories, and it is quite clear this is a script from him. And this already makes me curious going in - his stories are hit or miss with me - he has written some stories I love, and some which I don't care for.

Unfortunately, this falls into the side I didn't particularly care for. The side characters unfortunately blended into the side and the setting for me, and the setting itself, while usually I am a fan of the past, wasn't utilised well enough for me in this story. The setting was realised well, but not enough done with it to really care. The villain however, I was intrigued by, and the mystery worked well to draw me in initially, which has my interest piqued by its atmosphere and horror, however my interest waned as it progressed.

The choice to have the Fifth Doctor with Turlough solo though was interesting, and nice to develop this under utilised dynamic. Davison and Strickson's performance was a pleasure throughout at least.
