What a weird story to open Doom Coalition 2. It veers between 'fun holiday romp' and 'grieving widow is pointing a gun at the Doctor'. The story is set in 2017, no particular reason other than giving Helen some good Iines. The Third Doctor ties into this story having visited the town before and missed the hidden Voord ship due to its camouflage. At the end of the story, the Doctor, Liv, and Helen get Scooby Doo-esque music trying to run away from anti-terrorist police than the Doctor explains he might've just crushed all the Voord in their ship but hey they were bad people. It's a fine story to listen to and some good performances, but just all over bizarre.

There are some really tense moments in this story thanks to characters going way further and darker than I would have expected them to do. Really kept me on edge. The gunpoint scene was outstanding.
