Synopsis

Monte Carlo, 1966.

Four time travellers. Two missions. One costumed ball. The Doctor has sent Peri and Erimem to prevent the fabulous Veiled Leopard diamond from being stolen. Which is odd, seeing as the Doctor has sent Ace and Hex to steal the diamond. How will the two teams cope with this contradictory task? Will Peri's asp slip? Why does Ace have to pretend to be a French maid? How will Erimem cope with Pharaoh Rammalamadingdong? And can Hex really 'do posh'?

Previous Story: Night Thoughts


A neat little story with a lot of missed opportunites. We're robbed of a meeting between Peri, Erimem, Ace, and Hex. I'm also not sure I fully understood how the plot worked. With both halves of the story occuring at the same time you really have to pay full attention. Still, it was nice to hear Peri and Erimem again and Ace and Hex continue to be a really fun combo.

Also, how hard would it have been to get a cameo from McCoy and Davison. Just a quick little meeting at the end of the story would have made it a lot better in my opinion. It's an ok story as it is though, nice vibes and an odd plot. That's about it really.
