Review of The Justice of Jalxar by thedefinitearticle63

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

Previous Story: War Against the Laan

The return of Jago and Litefoot, two side characters so good that they got their own spinoff. That was a joy to listen to, a fun little romp and easily my favourite story in this series. I enjoyed the plot, the vigilante character was basically Batman and the robot serving justice was quite funny. Tom Baker and Mary Tamm have excellent chemistry on audio, it's such a shame she only got one series with him. Christopher Benjamin and Trevor Baxter's double act of Jago and Litefoot is easily the highlight of this story.

The plot isn't anything distinctly special, but it's not meant to be. Above all it's meant to be a fun reunion between the Fourth Doctor and Jago & Litefoot, and in that regard, it's absolutely brilliant.
