A very fun little runaround.

There's not really much if any plot here, but it gets you into the mindset of Eleven at this point, and gives it a firm timeline placement which is really nice to have.

Now that I think about it, this era really is some unexplored ground, on TV you just go straight from "Where's Clara" to finding her, filling in the gap here is really nice and is a fun way to set this era apart right from the off.

Also of course, Dudman's impression is spectacular.

A nice series of vignettes, very much in the style of the cold opens from this era of Doctor Who. Jacob Dudman does an excellent job of performing the Eleventh Doctor with the occasional slip that reminds you it isn't Matt Smith. He even has the low, talking to himself voice down. The writing really feels on point for this era. This was very enjoyable.

Thworping through time and space, one adventure at a time!

"PROLOGUE: CLARA"

This little 6-minute audio serves as a light-hearted introduction to Eleven's travels with Valarie Lockwood, as Eleven goes chasing after leads of Clara Oswald, always bumping into the wrong one, until the TARDIS takes him to Valarie.

It's short but very funny and packs a punch thanks to Dudman’s amazing acting and a couple of fun nods to the Brigadier and River.

📝VERDICT: 8/10

Clara: 7.8/10 - A decent little anthology of scenes. I liked the humor in this story a lot and I’m excited to see where the ending goes and how it leads into the next story. The mentions of characters like the Brigadier, River, and the Rocketmen were also cool little additions. Already Jacob Dudman is giving a great portrayal of the Eleventh Doctor which is incredibly on point and similar to Matt Smith. To wrap up, I’m looking forward to where this range goes and I find the concept of 11 trying to find Clara very interesting.

This is some fun stuff! Obviously there's not much actual plot, but as a series of short vignettes about the Doctor looking for Clara, this is pretty charming. Dudman's 11 voice is spectacular, and this is a good start to this boxset.
