DW: Red

Hey Guys,
welcome to the 85th adventure ‘Red’ of the big finish main range. Mel and the 7th Doctor are visiting a civilation that chiped themself.

Machine

The story has so much potential. It is not a new story. There is a community which decided to make a maschine that can take away your anger. They are all chiped, which mean the machine can take away your memories of your anger of your feelings. The machine takes their responisblitiy form them. This chip not just take their anger, it takes all their emotions. With brings us to very interssting situations. Because you always want what you can’t have.

Perfect system

This system seems perfect but nor Doctor or Mel thinks so. Both for really different reason. The Doctor thinks that the anger have to go somewhere. You can’t just take it away. Mel are thinking of all the other emotions like love and friendship. Also we have to patries here. One that let the machine edting them and the others that decided against it. They are not so different how they think. These people also forget how to feel and how to handle real emotions. That is what the hope to learn from Mel. I wish we had more of that part of the story.
This adventure also shows me how little Mel really knows the doctor. She believes in him and it is a good thing but he is not that good person she sees in him.

It is a really good story. So go and listen to it.

Torchwood: The Victorian Age

Hey Guys,

so I am back from my vacation in Prague and here is already ‘Zone 10’ waiting, but i never wrote about ‘The Victorian Age’. So here we go with the first Episode of the second season of Big Finish Torchwood adventure. Here we have Captain Jack Harkness again and Queen Victoria. It plays on the 17 May 1899.

Alien Hunt

This episode is a hunt through London. Jack is hunting down an Alien that should have been died and broke out of Torchwood when the Queen is there to inspect the Institute. The fun in this Story is the Queen that is going with Jack on the hunt. She is a great character. She sees the world in a different way and is desperate to help her people. She is not running after Jack, most of the time the Queen is running into the action and Jack needs to follow. It is a great dynamic between them. It seems like her walls are coming down and she has fun on the adventure with Jack and on the other hand is shocked from all the pain and death she sees and want to close Torchwood down. They seem close in some scene but there is always a distance between them.

It is a really great story and it is fun. It has humor, really great music and i can just recommand it.

DW: Something inside

Hey Guys,

here we go with the 83 adventure ‘Something inside’ form the big finish main range. This adventure is playing somewhere after the Divergent Universe – in which this story should original take place. I assume that it also plays after Time Works. Inside the Story is no time given. So it would be a perfect fit for the Divergent Universe.

Here we go again

Big Finish want to make fun of me. This story is again a story with the future and than going to listen what happend. It feels like the story got to the start very fast. But i still dislike this way of telling stories. Again C’rizz, Charley and the Doctor lost each other again. I love it when every character can shine and this time it would be Charley. But here we see that there must be something new to be an interessting story.
The human nature is always the most interessting and this team around the time lord are amazing characters.

The human nature

There was a war that the humans couldn’t win. Everytime the humans can’t do something they found another way. This time the made a mashine that turns humans in telecnatic persons. After the war was over they tried to reverse the progress what didn’t functioned. The only other solution the humans can bring up is to bring this people into a special prison. Isn’t this a typical story about our nature. The story is really good and it makes a lot of fun to listen too.
