A nice story that actually references Cross-Media canon. I've put this after the Radio Times stuff, simply because I think having 8 go from meeting Benny, straight to meeting a slightly older Benny is a bit crazy. That being said, this was a perfectly fun story with a nice long way around for the key and coat buttons. That being said, I think it would've been nicer if it was longer, and if the Roberts Master was mentioned, or the Vortex Shark got a bit more fleshing out, but this is certainly a way to kill 25 minutes.

This was also my introduction to Bernice Summerfield and I'll definitely want to hear more of her. Loved the story, her personality and her interactions with Eight!

This was a fun story and my introduction to Bernice Summerfield. Like a lot of the reviews I see here, I too really enjoyed her chemistry with the Eighth Doctor. The story itself is straightforward enough, perhaps to a fault, but I enjoyed the experience and the story was more inoffensive than bad. The idea of a cultist having beliefs around the Time Lords and TARDIS was a pretty cool one, and Venhella manages to stand out just enough given how short this story is. I would definitely recommend this as an introduction for Bernice Summerfield, as this story left me eager for pursuing more stories with this character.
