I bought this on sale a couple of years ago but haddn't listened to any Jago and Litefoot at that point, so I've finally caught up.

The Sixth Doctor had turned up at the end of the third series of Jago and Litefoot, but it took till sometime in the fourth series to actually reveal himself as the Doctor. At the end he took them for a trip in the TARDIS...

My first thoughts were the fact that Big Finish blurrs the lines between series, as this has the Sixth Doctors' theme and it does feel a Doctor Who adventure rather than Jago and Litefoot. But its a minor quibble. As you guessed they arrive on Venus, people are there, Earth is a dead wasteland. But there is the mystery of the cave, the natives, and what did happen to Earth?

Its not the most original of plot, even the Doctor guesses what the situation is on Venus. Also women are in charge, and men are almost redundant, its a bit been there done that. It has that feel of films such as journey to the centre of the earth, 20,000 leagues, land that time forgot, which I enjoy, so for me it tapped into that nostalgia.

I spent a while trying to place the voice of Vulpina, its Juliet Aubrey - she was in Primeval, another series I liked.

I said about the main J&L series that I wish some episodes were more stand alone and my enjoyment of this reflexts that - the fact is that sometimes I just want an hours entertainment and this delivered on that.

Recommended by me.
