VICTORY XXI

Following the final battle in All Flesh is Grass (Victory XVIII), the Daleks are stuck in the Time Vortex between the Dark Times and their own time, with the Doctor on board their ship, leading to a tense confrontation between the two sides.

If you have a problem with Nicholas Briggs talking to himself in different voices for about 95% of the runtime, then this audio isn’t for you. The cast is literally made up of Paul McGann, two guest characters, and multiple Dalek characters, and this easily turns grating, especially when you add the fact that the dialogue mostly consists of Daleks spouting technobabble and panicking about their ship breaking down and the Doctor constantly working against them.

The limited setting and small cast don’t allow this story to evolve a lot, and the little tension it manages to build in the second half is never effective enough to help this one stand out.
