Synopsis

"I wasn’t going to let this happen. After all we’d been through, the Doctor wasn’t going to die like this, on his knees, in the mud."

When Jo Grant was very young, her grandmother told her that there was a time for everything. A time to laugh and a time to cry. A time to live and a time to die.

Since meeting the Doctor, Jo has laughed till she thought she might burst. She has also shed a few tears along the way, but has lived more than she ever thought possible.

But now, as a strange spaceship materialises over UNIT HQ and a heavily injured Doctor returns to Earth, it is Jo's time to die. Again, and again, and again...

You can’t really go wrong with a Jo Grant/Katy Manning audio.

Here Jo seems to go from criss to criss. Almost the last few climatic minutes of an adventure, before being somewhere else doing much the same.

It doesn’t take much to know that things aren’t what they seem, the audio itself makes it obvious that what is being experience by Jo isn’t real, and it does become a bit of a waiting game for the reveal.

The title is slightly misleading as it doesn’t quite live up to it. Its just a few versions with reference to others.

It is more on the lighter, easy listening side, so if you’ve just come off a boxset or complicated plot this serves as some light relief.

To be honest I said at the start you can’t go wrong with a Katy Manning story and though this isn’t the most memorable, it forefills the requirements of an entertaining outing.

I was worried this story wouldn't be able to create a resolution that fit the scope set out with the premise, but it actually worked very well! I'm a particularly big fan of the Doctor's righteous speech.
