Based on the reviews I expected the worst, but I actually really liked this story! I absolutely adore this TARDIS team and I really love the sci-fi take on Treasure Island or something. Parts of this adventure felt very “swashbuckling,” and even though the guest cast are pretty bland, I did like Anjili Mohindra’s character. Overall this one was cool. I wouldn’t say it’s the best or even a standout, but I had fun

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

Previous Story: Ice Heist!

Unfortunately, this one is less entertaining than the last one, not bad by any means, but the story itself doesn't have too much substance. It starts off quite intriguing, but fizzles out towards the middle, however it does pick up again towards the end.

It's interesting to put Leela with another companion, atleast, one that isn't a talking robot dog. I think the actors are really enjoyable to listen to and help make a somewhat forgettable experience worthwhile.

I did enjoy the concept of a space island lost to time, but the main villain was a let-down.
