DW: I.D.
Hey Guys,
welcome to the 94th big finish main range adventure ‘I.D.’. This is an adventure of the sixth doctor without a companion. The back cover says that it plays in the 32nd century. Ahistory is placing it around 3150 between ‘the brain of Morbius’ and ‘the beast below’. So for the Doctor it has been somewhere between Peri and Mel. Because he is traveling alone. If this is between or after Evelyn is hard to say.
Altering the character
The setting is interessting. The Doctor met a researcher. This group is working on recreate character treats. The do it with data. It seems like people are uploading their character and everything as data. It seems very interessting. What are the consequences of it and why whould people do such things. So this give us alot of interessting stuff to think about. But the first two episodes are not getting into this stuff. It seems like that zhr Scandroids want to transfer data and this data is killing people. So the maschines wander around and upload data into the humans brains and kill them with it.
On the surface
Except from the Doctor we know nothing in this story. We don’t know the time or the characters. We don’t no the big bad. Which means we are in this completely new world and his interessting background that don’t get used. It remembers me alittle of the cybermen and the end is for me a little to happy end. The characters are good and interessting but have way to little time to acctually get into your heart. This story is just to fast for what i could’ve been. If you understand what i mean. Sadly this is what i am telling about the most stories in the last time.
Bonus Story: Urgent Call
This story is the first one that have a short story on the disk. I had this story before it was one of the storys big finish overed to download for free when you have the right from the Doctor Who Magazine. I really like this story. It is different to the others. We have that character Laurel that doesn’t feel well and is calling her mother but instead the Doctor answered the phone. The only way the Doctor is playing in this story is when Laurel calls him be accidient. The whole story are just phone calls she makes and the story is in the background. She just got little parts of what happend from the Doctor.
The best thing in this story is that in the end she doesn’t know how it ends. The Doctor just vanished like always and let her with all the question back. Urgent Call is a really nice story and is totally worth to hear the story before on the disk.
