Hey Guys,

welcome to most ridiculous, musical and heartbreaking story I heart in a long time. Doctor Who and the Pirates is the 43rd adventure of the Big Finish Main Range with the Doctor and Evelyn. This story is playing in the Caribbean Sea in the 18th century. Ahistory is placing it around 1705 and also it takes place in London 2003.

Tell me a story

And the Pirates is a little bit different from the most Doctor Who stories. Evelyn is visiting one of her students, which is not very happy about her visit. She starts telling her a story about pirates. The Doctor later helps her to tell story.
It seems that something bad is happening in this story. Because Evelyn has trouble telling the story. She seems sad and tired. So the Doctor decided to lose the dark touch and starts to sing parts of the story.

Roller coaster

The banter between Evelyn and the Doctor when the try to tell a story. The way the change the story and discuss it is quiet fun. The atmosphere is amazingly funny when the Doctor starts singing. But the in between is dark and sad and hard to describe it is more in the background. You can’t really understand what this sadness is. But is still there the whole story.

Listing or not

And the pirates is an amazing story. I love every single bit of it. It is ridiculous at some points. Evelyn trying to make different voices to tell the story or the Doctor singing. It is so much fun to listen to the story. But still you can’t lose this feeling, this sadness. You asked yourself till the end why the Doctor and Evelyn tell her student that story.
Just listen to it. It is an amazing sad story with fun parts.
And the pirates is a story about life without any excuses. It is sad, it is fun and it ends just like life.
