If this was released in 2025 you couldn't imagine Big Finish not putting Mark Gatiss and David Tennant's names on there cover.
There are edgy, dark characters. The alt reality setting allows for some fascinating character beats to unfold. A Doctor who didn’t turn up where he should have and a Brigadier who paid the price. Not to mention the fact it’s set in Hong Kong 1997 - a fascinating microcosm of personalities in “Little England”. Nick Courtney’s provides an incredibly strong performance here - the best I’ve heard him in audio.
I only wish it went on longer. Just as Gatiss' Master gets involved and it all kicks off, it all wraps up again. An incentive for me to dip into Warner's other unbound story. I'd love to hear more of Warner and the Brigadier travelling through space. This feels more like a pilot for a much longer arc than a complete project in and of itself.
