This was pretty good as a short little story for the Third Doctor. This being Liz Shaw's story but being told by Katy Manning is a bit weird but she does a fairly good job at keeping the audio feeling lively. I enjoyed how the Doctor was able to relate his feelings of being trapped on Earth to a Tiger in a zoo. It feels appropriate to the era and they play up that animosity he sometimes had with the Brigadier. It mostly works, but like a lot of these early Short Trips, wasn't terribly heavy in content or even all that much depth and substance. It's just a short little something, but hey, at least these are easily available for everyone on Spotify.


The fact this short trip starts off kinda similar to a recent big finish adventure feels kinda funny but this one is just perfect in how it characterises 3rd


Easily the most the profound, yet simple character pieces any Doctor has ever received. Comparing the Third Doctor to a Tiger at the local zoo, who overtime loses its mind to captivity does wonders and reveals previously unseen depth to a Doctor who rarely opens up on an emotional level.
