Review of Scherzo by RandomJoke

1 February 2025

This review contains spoilers!

This is exactly what I am talking about when I say we should explore the complicated Emotions the Doctor has towards love.

Anyway, I adore this Audio. Creepy, Beautiful, Bitter, Emotional and a Story about so much. Shearman is always a top-notch Writer, and this is yet another Masterpiece to add to his Collection of Top-Notch Stories.
Exploring this weird Realm in the Way this Story does make you excited but also sightly terrified what this Divergent Universe has in store for. And while none of those latter one hit the same strengths as this one does, it’s just so good. This Story is just made for Audio, not for books, not for TV, just Audios. McGann and Fisher are excellent in their Roles here. They bring out every Emotion, every Revelation in a superb way.
Not to mention McGann’s EXCELLENT Narration about a King and how his Kingdom slowly decayed. Not to mention how well we use the Medium for some ‘Jumpscares’, some of them really got me.
I know this will be a unique one, but I was truly in disbelief when I heard for the first time
(NSFW Warning for this short Sentence:) that they were eating a Corpse like what !
The Sound Design is just superb! Just superb work all around, I could go now about what the Story says about Art, Life, Death or even Love, but I will spare that for some other time.
