Hey Guys,

welcome the 50th adventure of the Big Finish Main Range – Zagreus. This story is set directly after the adventure Neverland, which means this adventure is with Charley and the eighth Doctor. It is an adventure to celebrate the 40th birthday of Doctor Who. It is 4 hours long and so lot longer than the other stories. Another special part is that all the companions that worked for Big Finish are playing in the story but most have a different part than we know.

Special Guest

It is lovely to have Romana II in the story again. After Neverland she thought the Doctor and Charley are dead. But she finds out that she was wrong. Leela brings her a message from Rassalon and they start to travel to the Dark Tower. It is the first time Leela and Romana meet and the start of great friendship. But I am really annoyed how they adresse Leela in the story – Savege. Even when I never was a great fan of Leela and the fourth Doctor but she is a great Companion. She is intellegent and lovely.

The Brig is back

Or is he. The Brig has a really big role in this story. But he is not really the Brig. The TARDIS – or a part of the TARDIS – takes the shape of the Brig to help Charley to find out what is going and how they can help the Doctor. They live through certain parts of history that have something to do with the Divergence.

Am I Zagreus

The Doctor is going crazy. The Anti-Time in his body forms the personality of the Zagreus. Zagreus and the Doctor are fighting for the upper hand and try to find out what is going on in the TARDIS. The story is quite confusing and you slowy unwrapping what is going on in this story. I think there is a lot going on in this story. It is about what the differents between love and friendship. It is about the pain about having the feeling to be left alone.

Listing or not

Zagreus is a good story that explains everything that was unclear about the overcasting story. The end set us up for new adventure in another Universe. It is lovely to hear all the familar voices and who they play with it. I like the theme friendship and what it means to the Doctor and the TARDIS. Because most part of the story are about these two. In the last part I am annoyed by Charley. I hate it when you can do something but you start judging others doing the same. But yeah go and listen to it.
