Previous Story: Ghost Station


Another decently enjoyable story but once again suffers from being too short. This one has a much weaker atmosphere and generally duller premise. It really feels like this came from an idea for a story that just couldn't fill out a standard two-part or four-part adventure, a lot of things are left unexplained and the one that bugs me in particular is how the villager got ahold of alien technology. It's still fun and the Doctor's interactions with Agatha make it worthwhile but I'm of the opinion that these shorter-style stories don't translate to full-cast audio very well.
