A lovely life-affirming tale. Another stellar entry in the 9DA.

I think the other reviews are too rough on this one. It's lovely that our heroine(?) simply wants so cross-dress and that they're accepted and loved by Toby. It is not a failure of the story that they are not trans, but a celebration of individuality. We know that 9 — and all Doctors — are allies. If we didn't have Tania a few episodes ago, maybe this would feel like a cop out. But we did and it doesn't.

Not sure what I think about this one. I would say that I wasn't interested in the setting or premise, but I was engaged for the entire listen. There are a bunch of neat things there. Odd one.
B. Maybe C.

could've easily been a trans subplot but no. great. the plot itself was boring, the characters arcs were just predictable and went nowhere interesting. i don't ever wanna see james kettle write a 9da idk why but his 9das are just.. not good.

Heartbreaking: the person in a ninth doctor audio who cut their hair, lived as a man, and used he/him to enter a gentlemans club ended up being a cis woman just pretending and got married to a man and was not, in fact, a gay trans man 💔
