Terry Nation really was in his humanity sucks mood huh.

It might start off as just an alright adventure, but that adventure slowly starts to get more and more nihilistic, with the chances of the mission succeeding seeming smaller by the page, making you wonder how it’s going to end. And once you realize where it’s going, stroke of genius. Foreshadowed incredibly well too. It’s a very simple and obvious idea, but the beginning of the story is just so unsuspecting and the revelation, exactly because it is so simple and bleak, make that it still hits.

A bunch of surprise bangers honestly, these Radio Times thingsies.
