DW: Cuddlesome

Hey Guys,

so i heart to the audio play ‘Cuddlesome’. It is part of the Big Finish Special Releases and featured the fifths Doctor. I really like it. He is without his companions. What gives other person the opportunity to shine.

The Story is about these toys named cuddlesome. They are a old product and now their will be a new version of them. A guy ‘John’ find is old cuddlesome after i saw the clip about the new cuddlesome, these cuddlesome wanted a hug and than atackt John. The Doctor is again at the right place to the right time to help Johns girlsfriendand of coures he teamed up with the girlfriend.

She is a really taff person and have in her handbag everythink you need, for example a hammer. She would totally be a really good companion.

So here it gets interessting. They found out what is behind the cuddlesome. The creature of the cuddlesome is a man, which get ‘mobt’ ( i don’t like the word – but it kinda is it). Everyone made fun of him and destroyed his favorite toy and said that he should grow up. But he become a man who never really  grow up inside. He never get over that thinks. It is kinda sad, what people could make out of other people. Acctually i can really understand them. I don’t understand what he did, but they destroyed something meaning full to him. It don’t have to be a toy, or a picture or somesthing else. This story shows how people treat other people and the things of other people. They don’t have respect for anything and that is a really sad thing.

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

DW: The Trial of a Time Lord Part 2/4

Welcome to Part 2,

‘Mindwarp’

The Sky looks pretty amazing in the Story.

So but the Valeyard is saying that people are dying because of the Doctor and is taking an adventure of the Doctor as example where he kills accidentillya a creature and should be punished for it. But the Doctor and Peri can escape and find werwolves (not really, but something like that). Also we the this one creature again from the story ‘Vengenance on Varos‘.

We see the Doctor changing. He isn’t the Doctor how tried to save everyone. He is the one who helps the bad ones with their experiments. For Peri this is a relly interessting situation. Because she sees what the Doctor do, but she still cares and tries to protect him. In this episode she can prove that she is really a strong character. I don’t like her very much, you know that but she has my respect.

SPOILERS

Yeah i know everything i write is a little spoiler, but this is about Peri and wht happend to her. I think that this is not the last time we see her, because we have herad if it end like that. Because long before i watched the adventures with adric, i know how it will end.
So at the end of the Story Peri died. The bad ones have transfered the brian of Sifs ‘King’ into her. The actor did a really good job with it. For me i had to wish for a more emotional end. I don’t want to rewritte it. Just make it more emotional. Because i want to cry when companions die, if i like them or not.

I am really interessted who they end this story. In the next part we will met a new companion Mel.

DW: The Ratings War

So guys,
here is the promised article about ‘the ratings war’. It featured the sixth Doctor.

It plays at earth and took place at a radio station. They have a reality show and the finale is right now. The Doctor is coming to complain about this reality shows. There is this creature ‘the beep of the meep’. I have looked at the comic and it is really good not to see the creatured. They say it should be cute and it tried to take over the audience.

I must say it is not my story. It is almost just this conversation between the ‘beep of the meep’ and the Doctor. So i find it really not interessting. I know that in the other stories are not much more but they had something that faszinated me and this story didn’t.

I looked at Offer four and there is a story that really intrest me but i can’t promise that i will write about because i have to wait for my UNIT Stories to arrive. But maybe we see what will be in Offer five.

DW: Mission of the Viyrans

Hey Guys,

lets talk about a new audio drama. This is a drama of the serie ‘Big Finish Monthly releases’. I get it for free on big finish with out the story ‘The Mind’s Eyes’,  it gets released with. But they don’t be connected. So know the story is featuring the fifth doctor and Peri. I really like the Story. But only Peri has a really big part in the Story. The Doctor just played a few minutes. Everything is about Peri.

We don’t know what happend. Peri is talking to the Doctor and than something happend. The Doctor is changing into Peri. Than she wakes up in a room and someone is talking to her. They want that she remembered what happend. Peri has problems to remember. She remembered that everyone turned into her.

We met the Viyrans again. You maybe remember them form Dark Eyes 2 ‘The White Room’. They are nurses. Peri is a patient zero and they want to make her forget. It is really nice to listen to the Story.

Hey Guys,

i know that i promised to write about the audi play ‘ The rating war‘ and i will tomorrow. But today i want to tell you about another radio play of doctor who. Because this one, you can download for free until Monday so. Just go and do it 😉

This radio play featured the eigtht Doctor and Charley. I liked ‘No place like home‘ more, but it is a really intertaining story. He and Charley goes to the two creatures which whats to invaided the earth and plays time lords. Charley is really good at it and it is a lot of fun hearing her talking to the doctor and the others. The Doctor plays that he is a big fan of the invaider. So you have very nice interaction between all the characters.

So this is an intertaining half an hour. So just visit ‘Big Finish‘ and download it. I wish you much fun with it.

DW: No place like home

Hey Guys,

the Big Finish is celebrate 15th years of Doctor Who releases. So they have a lot of special prices and so on. Also they have two audio plays on the first day for free. On is ‘No place like Home’ and the other ‘The ratings war’.  Of course i couldn’t resist. So here is what i think about the first one and tomorrow the other.

This audio play is featuring the fifths Doctor and the new companion Erimem. This is in the time with Peri traveling. Erimem is a human from the old egypt time. Peri is in his room and don’t play a role in this story. So this story take place in the TARDIS. It is really lovley to have all the hits of the other companions. We wander with the Doctor and Erimem through the TARDIS, it is really fun to find a few rooms.

Shayde is also a part of this story and Erimem has a cat on board on the TARDIS. The Story is about what means home and about lonliness. I like it. It is a nice entertainment. So go and hear it.

You all know i love the Brig and the UNIT time. This is about a new UNIT. UNIT should becoming part of a other organisation ICIS. For that reason the Brig should held a speech at a press conference. But ICIS just sees him as an old man. ICIS is fighting against the Silurians. Silurians are a taking the Brig and he takes it in his own hands.

DW: The Trial of a Time Lord Part 1/4

Hi Guys,

welcome back for Season 23 of Doctor Who. We will see what it brings us. I like the idea of one big story over the whole season and also that the time lords take place in it. Also the 25 minute episodes are back. Yeah!

The Mysterious Planet

So the Story starts that the Doctor arrives at Gallifrey without Peri. The Time Lord accused him to at broken the first Law of Time Travling and take him to trial. They show all an adventure of the Doctor and Peri.

They visited a planet how is simular to earth. But this planet should be destroyed by a fireball. It don’t look like it and when the Doctor find himself and Peri in the old tunnels. He things that this is the earth. Peri is really upsad about it and the doctor really understand it.

I have read that the wanted to be more fun and not so much horror and i don’t like this very much. In the first episode is a scene, where the Doctor is placed in the room and should stand still and everyone is throwing stones at him. He tried to block them with his umbrella but get hit. That is not funny and i hope that they don’t make such scenes into ‘funny’ ones.

I like the idea of the season, but the stories are for me like the other not deep enough… i mean i don’t feel with it. But that is just me. I just really noticed who set up the trail for the Doctor. The Valeyard… this is a really good one.

So we will read us at part 2

DW: Dark Eyes 2 – The Eyes of the Master

So Guys welcome to the last part of ‘Dark Eyes 2‘,

so the story has many conflicts between the characters. Molly and Liv are getting along very well, but Liv and the Doctor have troblems. Because the Doctor helped the Daleks and she can’t forget that. Also Liv is ill, she can die anytime and the doctor didn’t know.

Also there is this company that seems to be behind it. And in this time there is an Eye Company, that is really a good thing. We learn fast that one Doctor there is a time lord. Because he also has a TARDIS. When we look at the Titel i think we just met the Master and he want Molly.

Molly want to check on a friend. So the Doctor and Liv have time on there own. It is not a long time, until she and the Doctor were split. But Molly is finding on her own without knowing were she is searching. I think it is not a good think, that her friend is going in alone. So he is in the hand of the Mater and he just healt is sight… we will see what is behind  all this.

The Master is working for the Time Lords, which offered him a new time circle. They want to use the Eminece to destroy the Daleks. Also they want to controll  the Eminece, some people are imun against them. So the time lords are at the starting point of a really great war. This is really amazing when you see this as the start of the time war. This is really amazing.

Also the Eminece seems to live in the Doctors Mind. The Doctor let the Emenice in but he losed the controll. The Eminece is escaping with the Masters TARDIS and they going to the Planet from the first Story. So the circle is completed. The Daleks are set up for the Eminece and the Doctor is in prision.

We don’t know what happend at the end. We just know that the Doctor is set free and the Daleks aren’t there anymore. Also the Master is captured Molly. This is a really awesome story. Even if some parts are weaker at the whole picture the Story are all so great. I love them. I can’t wait to hear ‘Dark Eyes 3’. Why isn’t November yet?!

So yeah you can totally count on it that i will order it as soon as possible. We will see as then 🙂

DW: Ten Little Aliens

Ten little Aliens is a doctor who book from the ‘Past Doctor Adventure‘-Serie. It got reprint for the 50th Anniversary Collection.

The book featured the first Doctor (William Hartnell) and his companions Polly and Ben. Many of the adventures of this three are partially or complete missing. So it is a good thing to have some action with these characters.

I am sorry i think for a real critic i need to read it again. But what i can tell us is:

At first i needed a little time to get the story of the other ‘characters’ of the Story. But there are a few really interessting people and they have a real role. The interaction with Polly and Ben or the Doctor are really good and entertaining. Also the book is kinda sad, it has some heavy staff in it ( as far as i remember). It was a really interessting book. It was good to read with well written characters.

Just one thing i didn’t like it was how Ben interacted with Polly in a few scenes. I don’t know if this is his charcter and i just don’t like that part of him or it was the writer.
