DW: A Thousand Tiny Wings
Hey Guys,
welcome to the 130th Big Finish Main Range Adventure ‘A Thousand Tiny Wings’ with the 7th Doctor. He is on his own. The story takes place in Kenia 1952. 5 women are hiding in an old farmhouse from the Mau Mau Uprising. One of this women is someone the Doctor knows from a past adventure with Ace. In ‘Colditz’ he had met Doctor Klein and here she is again in the life of the Doctor.
Doctor Klein
I haven’t listen to ‘Colditz’ yet. She comes from an alternative timeline and worked for the Nazis. From her view the Doctor destroyed the right timeline and wants to change it back. She has quite interesting view of the world. The Dynamic between the Doctor and Klein is great. She is not one of the people who look up to the Doctor or believe that he is a good man. No she sees him as manipulating and arrogant. She not that wrong. That is actually why I love the 7th Doctor. He is really good in manipulating people.
She is really intelligent and she cares about people. There are two world views crashing and it totally is the reason the story works so well.
Injured alien
The five women find an injured alien and bring him into the farmhouse. It is great who these women work with each other and are so different in her ways of seeing the world and the way the deal with it. Denise is one of my favorite. She saves the alien and gives him a name. She believes that just because everyone is acting crazy you still act like an english person. So one moment she holds a reveal in the face of the Doctor and the next she is inviting him for tea.
The mysterious death
Next to the Mau Mau uprising and the alien the Doctor and the five women have to deal with mysterious death. The victim is covered with tiny little stretch. It is amazing who all the part of the story work so well together. The characters work so well together with all there quarrel and different views. Also it is interesting to see the change in the people. I am really excited to listen to the other stories with the Doctor and Klein.
