Smuggling Tales

This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: 1001 Nights (The Interplanetarian)

Another OK story. It's a shame because most of these stories so far could make for really interesting 2-part adventures as they have some genuinely fascinating concepts. The idea of a world who use stories as currency is great. Unfortunately, this one was by far the weakest. It devolves into some strange crime-thriller with undercover agents and people-trafficking schemes.

The cast didn't really impress me and there's little-to-no worldbuilding in this story which gives me nothing to latch onto. I can't even picture it in my mind after the fact.
