One of my favorite doctor who stories of all time. I've always been a big fan of historicals, and to use it to tell a tale so full of death works wonderfully for the 5th doctor. It takes me back to watching his final season, with this theme of death in his wake, even if not his fault. This is what I think should be used as the main example for how to write a historical, with the Doctor simply having to take in the setting, instead of influencing it. I urge everyone to give this story a shot, you won't regret it.
