DW: The Settling
Hey Guys,
here we go with the 82 adevnture ‘the Settling’ from the big finish main range. The seventh Doctor, Ace and Hex are landing in 1649 were Cromwell set an ultimatiom to Wexford. This is Hex first adventure in the earth past. So where do we start.
The Beginning of the end
I am not a way of the way the story is told. This is something i always say when we start in the present and than have something like two days before. But i have to say the way Hex is speaking, i forget about this way of telling the Story. Hex is thinking about what happend and seems to be very bad because he sounds a little broken. Everytime Hex is talking in the present, i just want to hug him.
Travling with Cromwell
We have two story parts. One is Hex who travels with Cromwell and is trying to make him a better man. He is trying to make a difference. Than we have the Doctor and Ace, which are searching for Hex. The Doctor and Hex have a pregant woman with them and which brings them in a difficult situation.
Can History be changed? This is a interessting theme and we know the Doctors opinion about it. You can’t change History. But maybe you can make a difference.
Did we make a difference
Hex is feeling for the first time. That he couldn’t save people like he wanted. He can’t change history, people are dying around him. Where Ace is seeing the positive side. They made a difference, they did the best they could do and they saved the pregnant woman.
But Hex don’t sees it yet as a difference. Thausands died and they saved one. He is not ready to see that one is better than none. He still wants to save everyone and that makes him so loveable but Ace is right. This makes a different. Hex is already thinking about leaving the TARDIS.
The Story is good but not more.
