DW: Time and the Rani

Hey Guys,

i am really excited to look this story. It is for me the start of the beginning. I will met the seventh Doctor and it is the last on that i don’t know. That means that there are only three season of classic doctor who left an the are not long seasons… I don’t know what i will do without a classic who episode everyday. First i think i will watch Sarah Jane Adventures… and maybe i will start again with the first Doctor. We will see, totally i will hear more audio dramas so Doctor Who will never really ends.

Let’s start with the story. The Regeneration is really sad… because you don’t know what happend an it is just over. But the start is a very good, because they brought back the Rani (from ‘The Mark of the Rani‘). The Rani, was a really interessting character. This time she gave the Doctor something that curse anmesia and is trying to play Mel.

Mel is make new friends on her own way. I think i really like her. Also the Rani is making a really good at her act of Mel. I love the faces she makes.  The Story i don’t i can’t say much about it yet. They actors doing an amazing play and it is fun to watch them.

The seventh Doctor seems to be sweet and really playfull. Mel is screaming a lot this Story. It is a little annoying. The Story is not so interessting but the person make it good. I hope will get the Ranis reason. Because she is not a bad time lord. She is just a cruel scientist.

I am a little disapointed i the Rani motives. She was so much better when she wanted to do her work and not playing god. But i really like her anyway. She is a great character.

I hope we will see such great characters also in the next story. See you than.

DW: Rise and Fall

Hi Guys,

This is a story from the ‘short trips’. I really like the story. It featured the first Doctor and Ian Chesterton. Nothing happend in this story. Ian and the Doctor just stood there and watch. It is amazing and it is a really good described. The others, the aliens are living in a faster time line so you will get the whole story of there evelopement. The whole hystory of mankind. The Rise and Fall of a civilation.

I don’t know what i can say about it, because it only goes ca 30 min and it don’t happend much. But William Russel is doing a really good job reading the Story. I like how he read the Doctor. He has a good feeling for him. I really see the Doctor before me, when he is reading. So i can total tell you that this is worth your time.

DW: Harvest in time

Hi Guys,

after the big let down of the book with the third Doctor i got a recommend from felicityredbarrow  as a good book of the 3rd doctor. So i was really excited to read this book. It featured the third Doctor ( Joe Pertwee), Jo Grant and UNIT.

As i told you the last time, i am not a big fan of the 3rd doctor, but i love his Companions and UNIT so much, that i fall in love with this era and the doctor. One of the big negativ points in the last book were the way the characters are written. In this book the characters are really well written. Jo is never doing what she think is right, the Brig and Mike and the others are very fitting. The Part of Benton could been larger but you can’t have anything. But the best character was totally the master. You can see so much facetts of the master in this book all are totally the master. It’s totally amazing how the autor is playing with this character and the bond between him and the Doctor.

So~ the start was a bit much different perscetive, but it found a really good story flow. Everything was fitting. I really like the Story. Jo and UNIT are fighting against an invasion of aliens and the doctor has to save the master. It’s a great dynamic. The end is a little bit timeywhinny but i can live with it. So everyone who love UNIT or the master should totally read that book.

So thank you for the recommand.

See you later guys.

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

Hey Guys welcome to the last part of the season.

The ultimate Foe

That is really good. Guys we have a a special guest: the master. I love it. Yeah, totally because i love the master. So the master brings Mel and one of the first adventure to the trial to ‘help’ the Doctor. He is perfect and also let slip how the Valeyard really is.

It is a really good thing, but i don’t get the Valeyards intentions. I don’t really understand how the Valeyards plan could work. Mel isn’t not a person how waits until thinks happend. She go for her sell, she has a little from Jo.

I liked the season, but the end was really bad. He is saving their lifes and everything is forgotten and the take away the strong end of Peri. They telling the Doctor in the truth Peri is alive and living a life as a warrior queen. That is totally one of the worst thinks that they did to a character.

It was made it really bad for me, just this sentence. But we know the Valeyard is still out there and in controll of the matrix.

The next episode is with the new Doctor. The last Doctor i didn’t know. We will see what i think of him.

DW: The Trial of a Time Lord Part 3/4

Hello Guys,

lets look part 3 of the trial of a time lord. The adventures of the seventh Doctor are on there way to me, but know we will talk about part 3.

Terror of the vervoids

So now it is the Doctors part and he is showing an event of the future. So we have a new companion, which is just there. We don’t get how they met or what happend. She is just there and i don’t know what i should think about her. Mel is a little cute and her voice is a little getting on my nervs. In some scene i really find her sweet and other i just think what is that. She is believing in the Doctor like he knows everything and that is something i don’t like very much.

It irritates me a little how close both are. Without we seeing them getting so close. Also it is disturbing not to see any feelings about Peri. I know it plays in the future and so one and in the present the Doctor is in the court. But i just exspect something more.

So again to Mel, i think i can like her. She is intellegent and is springing around. Sometimes she remembers me of a flummie.

So as we get the Story goes about experiments, moral question experiments. They create a species out of plants and it goes out of hand. So it is humans against plants. Actually a pretty amazing theme. Because what is very important to me, Mel is showing the normal part she is schock of the brutality of the plants, but the Doctor shows how you must see it. They just doing what we do with our weed in the garden. They Doctor choose a side here and i totally understands it. There is a decision to make, but i can’t really deny that the valeyard is also right.. a little bit.

So we will see how the season ends in the next part. See you then.

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.

DW: Living Legend

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.
