the fact that this TV comic basically predicted Invasion of the Dinosaurs is insane

The plot of this Audio Play is so ridiculously complex and satisfyingly meta, I love it

Gotta enjoy the returh to the Land of Fiction, especially after last Season's finale (it would make a lot of sense if it was set in the Land of Fiction. However, I'm not as critical of Wish World/The Reality War as some people here)

Not gonna lie, the narrative of this story managed to completely fool me a couple of times. I didn't even notice that Sherlock Holmes was played by Nicholas Briggs (although I kinda think that was the whole point...)

I recommend this to everyone who loves a good detective story OR weird experiments. If you love both (like me), than you will really enjoy it!

The Doctor praising Stalin?? Ace randomly kissing some soldier?? Yeah, this is definitely on the more peculiar side of Doctor Who Universe

K9 farts in this one. Audibly. And Starky laughs about it

They did my boy K9 so dirty...

1/10

But in all seriousness, I kinda enjoyed watching it. It's pretty bad, the costumes are hilarious, the acting is hammy and unnatural but it's fun to look at this. I'm also afraid I have an idea about what will be the standard formula for this whole series. An alien arrives from that Professor's thing, and the company gotta stop it. K9 is disabled for some time, but then restores its power and saves the day

Would like to be proven wrong though

This was honestly a very solid episode with a fittingly epic vibe (I'm kinda surprised this wasn't a finale, definently feels like one)

I'm not sure about all that stuff with April's family, their relationship feel a little underdeveloped, but there were some touching moments with them

Also - Charlie and Miss Quill had a very interesting dynamic here, I'm looking forward to see where are they going

Very cool 'Next Time' teaser - I think I'll love the next episode, especially because of the pretty high Tardis Guide scrore and the fact that it seems to be a botle episode which will flesh out our characters a bit more

This first story with Nicholas Briggs's Nth Doctor is very much alike to Brigg's later scripts so if you like them - you will quite enjoy this. If not... Well, you won't

The story takes a lot of time to get moving but the Temperon is a fascinating character, and the Daleks (voiced by none other than Michael Wisher) are marvellous

Character dynamic between Nadia and Fred (Doctor's companions) reminded me of good old Power of the Daleks (wonder whether this was intentional or not - after all, The Time Ravagers is also a post-regeneration story featuring the evil pepper pots). The trio from the ship is also very reminicent to many classic Who supporting characters

Malcolm Hulke's final script for Doctor Who is a certified banger. Delightful story, very reminicent of The Ambassadors of Death which is a very high mark for me. Dinosaurs are so great, it's crazy - i know everyone says they look cheap but i do not care, they were brilliant, just like a kaiju movie

Peak of TV Comics. (No it's not because of the fact that the first chapter of this story came out on my birthday what are you talking about)

Doctor Who is a 1996 motion picture based on the long-running sci-fi show Doctor Who. It is directed by Geoffrey Sax and stars Paul McGunn as a dazzling new Eight Doctor

The film tells the story of how the freshly-regenerated Doctor tries to rescue his time travelling machine called the TARDIS from another Time Lord the Master played by Eric Roberts. His companion for this film is a doctor Grace Holloway who helps him to regain his memory

This film is a delightful watch to any fan of the programme, but it also can be a good starting point for people who have never seen the famous TV show. The perfomances, especially Eric Roberts', are hilariously campy, and the new opening theme is a marvellous rendition of the classic tune. This film quite literally screams that it was produced in the 90s, and if you love this era of films and television then you'll certainly enjoy the movie. The screenplay by Matthew Jacobs is perfectly serviceable except for one infamous line that divides the whole fandom till this day (I won't say which line exactly, but if you know you know)

Overall, Doctor Who is a masterpiece in eyes of many fans who sometimes consider it to be a comfort watch and especially nice way to celebrate New Year's Eve, but casual viewers can also enjoy this film. I definently recommend it to everyone

Chris Boucher is really one of the greatest Who writers huh. Absolutely adore gothic horror vibes in the last two episodes (I wasn't particularly impressed by first two episodes, but they made a REALLY good job at the end of the serial imo)

Wow, I'm the first reviewer of this story! This review will be kinda experimental cause I will write my thoughts on the story while listening to it. So it's more like an initial reaction than a review

The episode's beginning feels like a nice way to re-introduce listeners to the overall plot. Not exactly fresh start but a solid entry point nevertheless. Also probably one of the most grand Daleks' plans

The Mentor is an interesting new character. Really like her robotic yet human-like voice. Feels soothing in a way

While listening to these Dalek stories I found out I really like all the clicking 'sci-fi' sounds lol

Decided to randomly browse TARDIS.Guide and realized Nicholas Briggs wrote literally every story in this spin-off. Wow. That's dedication I guess

Gareth Thomas as Kalendorf is certainly a highlight of the whole series from an acting standpoint

Yes, hallucinations (or not)! Doubts about the reality of story's events! Love this stuff

Btw I will correct myself from earlier and say that The Mentor is a true highlight of this episode in particular

Again, the themes of a story (especially this thin line between something and something... I will need to edit the review because I forgot what I wanted to write)

LOVE the twist (not exactly huge but it adds a curious element to Susan) near the end. Feels creepy in a way that every Dalek story should be imo

The music is so 2000s coded I really appreciate it

Wow a trailer in the end

In conclusion I can say that this is a pretty solid episode. I'm excited for next chapters of the story but I'll definently have at lest a week-long break before listening to them because I don't want to go mad from hearing so many Dalek voices. Also writing this review simultaneously with listening to it was an interesting experience maybe I'll try it again

Well, I guess that's everything I was going to say. Really hope I didn't forget to do something that I intended to do...

P.S. Sorry for a non-funny 'joke' near the end I just couldn't help myself

It's usually really hard to make me hate a story. I am one of those people who think that 'every Doctor Who story is someone's favourite' (but if anyone thinks this is their favourite Doctor Who story - no offence)

But... This is just sexist

My anarchist nature likes that Theta Sigma is described as an anarchist by the Time Lords but that's literally the only positive thing I can say about this story

First ½ rating from me. Never thought I'll do it

Look, I like laughing. And this episode is a great comedy for an asexual person. Don't trying to offend anyone but I just can't imagine the same happening to me. Although, again, this is too funny for me and I simply can't give anything this hilarious a rating lower than 10/10

It was alright. Not the best story ever, but a pretty good introduction to Torchwood as a group and as a series. I like the fact that everyone is so unlikeable right from the start lol

Too good of a story. Love the themes. This is my introduction to Paul Sutton, and so far... he's a pretty great writer! [spoiler]Return of Colin Baker was very pleasing. I think everyone by now knows this theory, but I still got to say that Colin Baker's appereance is just one of the standart appereances of Time Lords. He could play any Time Lord! So let's presume the next incarnation of Rani is played by him... /j[/spoiler] Tense political thriller with great character development... It's 10/10 in my book!

I will be as honest as I can: this is not an ideal episode of Doctor Who. But it was one of the first episodes I ever watched. And I love it for it. Nothing too special, simple premise, but a really good time (and also really effective Clean Break for new Whovians). And... Yes... My review is shamelessly written for the sake of getting the new badge! Although I truly rewatched it, don't think I'm trying to fool you

So, after watching the episodes composing this serial semi-regularly (one or two a day, with a nice addition of Doctor Who and the Daleks between 5th and 6th), I can definently say that I overall enjoyed it. It is not a flawless story, there are some ploblems here and there, but… idc

This serial just feels really… Doctor Who. Like, you got everything here: some classic sci-fi of the Daleks vs Mechanoids, some comedy (certain episodes just outright feel like a light-hearted spoof), then there is adventure, danger and a early step into that would eventually become The Land of Fiction (lk it’s not technically The Land of Fiction, but the Nation’s idea for that place certainly have similarities with that would eventually become The Land of Fiction).

The first episode is literally just our protagonists chilling in the TARDIS and watching some historical scenes that bear practically no relevence to the plot of the story! Gotta love the story that manages to be everything Doctor Who is about. It is trying to be sci-fi, in some ways it is trying to be a horror, in some ways it is trying to be a comedy, but in all ways… It is trying to be Doctor Who. And I love this show. So it was impossible for me to not like it I think. 10/10

Very solid audio drama. Really feels like an episode from Pertwee era. Ending is truly sad

Mark Gatiss is probably having fun. I had fun. Definently more 'Torchwood' than 'Doctor Who'. Caroline John as Liz Shaw is great, geniunely upset that we got only one tv season of her as a full-time companion (great one though), but I will probably listen to Big Finish with her someday

Apparently Mark Gatiss thinks that the whole "P.R.O.B.E." series was just a "learning exercise" and I can agree that this story is not the most inventive or original, but it honestly surprised me cause I liked it very much! Nice horror story, which definently uses the whole potential of a "supernatural Doctor Who spin-off". And I will always appreciate the fact that 'Doctor Who' has the ability to inspire people to create

Revisiting past (and future) Doctors! Breaking the fourth wall! Fun, fun, fun

Fun adventure exploring generational trauma. Colin Baker is, as always, excellent as the Doctor, and Evelyn (played by Maggie Stables) is quickly becoming one of my favourite companions! Definently recommend, although the ending may seem a little too bleak for some listeners

A really fun story about aromantism, asexuality and AI going horribly wrong! Its premise felt a bit similair to the film "Lobster" by Yorgos Lanthimos, but the film and this story are very different in their plots and execution, so that's alright. Overall, pretty excellent! I think I'm going to like this set, the dynamic between Ninth Doctor and River Song is certainly interesting

I was really looking forward to listening to this story because it is penned by one of the best Who writers - Robert Shearman - and it certainly didn't dissappont me. Great absurdist comedy with interesting sci-fi elements. And that ending... I laughed a lot

Rewatched today. Such a great episode. Probably the best of Chibnail's era now that I think about it
