Going to London to see this seemed like an expensive do, probably required spending the night, with travelling costs not to mention the ticket etc. So I took the decision not to go... But then athey added another day, and I did quite want to go, so it turned into a few days away.

Though I wasn't a fan of the Eighth Doctor's TV story, I loved him when he came to audio. At the time his audios were the new series and I loved Charlie, so this was a chance to see Paul Mcgann be the Eighth Doctor, and he was in costume. And with India Fisher as Charlie it was the icing on the cake.

I recently saw The Hound Of The Baskervilles radio show with Colin Baker, and this was a similar experience. Some set dressing - in this case a Dalek, TARDIS polic box and Console (not the Eighth Doctors one though) but its nice that they made the effort. Each of the actors stood (or sat when not speaking) behind a mike, with a foley artist doing the sound effects.

After a brief introduction, with a squeaking TARDIS console turned off, the story began.

In a  small village people are dissapearing and there's something in the mines.

Called the Stuff of Legend, its not really a celebration of Doctor Who itself, but does feature the Daleks, the Master (played by Alex Macqueen, and Its quite a nice version of the Master) though I feel neither were used to their full potential. Carolyn Seymour featured as well, though, again I felt she was a little under used.

With a few jokes and fluffs - Nick Briggs as a Dalek dying before he got shot! it was a really terrific experience, and I'm glad I went.

I do hope they do another, the live nature of he event is what makes it.
