Review of The Sands of Life by thedefinitearticle63
This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.
Previous Story: The Stealers from Saiph
This is actually a fairly decent Briggs story, it's not full of vague action sequences and frustratingly bland characters. The Laan are actually a really cool concept for a monster. The story itself is decent, I don't think the Doctor gets enough to do and in general some of the conflicts feel forced. In general I think this story is mainly setting up the next one, so I can only hope that will be better.
Cuthbert, played by the late David Warner is an annoyingly evil character and he succeeds in being a hateable villain.
I found it weird that it was 3 parts, it didn't really add anything to the story. Not great, not terrible.
Next Story: War Against the Laan
