Review of The Behemoth by thedefinitearticle63

This review contains spoilers!

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

Previous Story: Quicksilver


This is such an odd story, I'm genuinely not sure what to think about it. It's really disjointed, the parts all follow on from one another but the story itself is constantly shifting. The first part is just the Doctor, Constance, and Flip at a party. The Doctor vanishes off with some woman for a good chunk of the story. There's a rhino that escapes and they have to catch it and then Flip and the rhino get abducted by some weird rich creep.

None of it makes sense and none if is particularly fun to listen to either. It's extremely jarring and yet still manages to be quite boring. There's commentary on women's rights and the slave trade in here somewhere although I don't really think it's there to say anthing other than "this is a thing that happened and it was bad". Quite a disappointing story all in all, Flip and Constance are split up for a good chunk of it so we don't even get that much more of their dynamic.


Next Story: The Middle
