Previous Story: The Kingmaker


I love a good U.N.I.T story and this certainly fits the bill. It's not anything that remarkable but it's got a really good mystery running throughout with a pretty satisfying resolution. I also enjoy seeing a competent U.N.I.T that doesn't get pushed around by random organisations. Blake Harrison was pretty good as Daniel Hopkins and has nice chemistry with Peter Davison, I'm keen to see more of him. The idea is also quite interesting, if a bit disturbing. I struggle to say much more about it beyond the fact that it was pretty good, it didn't bore me and it had some cool ideas.
