Nevermore

Synopsis

A bizarre manifestation in the Control Room forces the TARDIS onto the Plutonian shores of the irradiated world Nevermore, whose sole inhabitant is the war criminal Morella Wendigo — a prisoner of this devastated planet. But the Doctor and his new companion aren't Morella's only visitors. Senior Prosecutor Uglosi fears the arrival of an assassin, after the blood of his prize prisoner. An assassin with claws...

There's no escape from Nevermore, whose raven-like robot jailers serve to demonstrate Uglosi's macabre obsession with the works of the 19th century horror writer Edgar Allan Poe. An obsession that might yet lead to the premature burial of everyone on the planet's surface — wreathed in the mist they call the Red Death!

Okay I really liked this one. Though I seem to be in a minority hehe.

Warning: Do not open the next review if you have not watched the whole season!!!

Just a thought though, why do people put spoilers about the later episodes in here??

I got spoilt about the misterious time traveller while reading the other review here. I mean there's the warning about spoilers, but you should only spoil the episode you are currently reviewing.

Anyway, it's pretty obvious in hindsight who it is but it kinda sucks, I will probably not read any review when it's something as serialised as this 4th season.

This review contains spoilers!

Look, I like Poe as much as the next person, but the amount of quoting got very irritating. A decent atmosphere meets an incoherent plot and a companion that still has very little personality. I still don't quite understand why the daughter was also a cat that was also an assassin, nor why everything was Poe-themed beyond 'the warden liked Poe'. I know that the one behind most the events in this series is The Monk, because I got spoilt, but I'm wondering what exactly his plan is here.

4/10.
