Responding to a call at the end of the previous episode the Eleventh Doctor and Valerie find themselves in the 18th century Venice during carnivale. Trying to find the woman who made the call they head to a plaazzo and have, or rather enjoy a ball.

This is a fairly standard story. A crashed space ship unnoticed by the carnival, a malfunctioning computer and things not quite what they appear to be. All happening behind the gusto of period clothing and the ball and dancing.

Its a good enjoyable tale, but nothing outstanding, unique or memorable for that matter. I find that very good or very bad audios gives you lots of scope to detail what it was that made it as such. When you have little to say but enjoyed it then, its good but unremarkable, which is what this is.

As an adventure to experience more of the Eleventh Doctor it does its job. Valerie was good, but I didn’t feel that much was done with the character.
