UNIT: The Wasting

Hey Guys,
welcome to the final part of this UNIT serie. This is one of the weakest parts of the serie and even more as the showdown. But the weak points will be forgotten by the many fanservice.

Weak Story

The Story before was so good and now that all is out in the open, everything seems forgotten. It goes about a virius that never get mentioned before and the rescue of Colonel Wood. We got no really answer what has the real reason behing everything, the grand plan or how they did it. We got something totally new. But the virius storyline is just for fanservice. We don’t really searching for a solution. The Brig let search. We don’t have anything to do with it not the Brig or UNIT. But we got fanservice. The best fanserves ever is the Brig himself. He let forget alot of weak points just for being part in it. But also he is calling Sullivan and mentionend Benton and Mike. It is really fun to hear him in action again.

Get us a doctor

Sadly we don’t get ‘The Doctor’ in the story, but we got a doctor. David Tennant is playing Colonel Wood. I really love his voice. You hear that he has fun to play that role. Listen to him is making me forget a lot points, because he just can caught.

It is really fun to hear the Brig and the colonel Wood. All the mentions of old things is amazing but the story is really weak not perfect for a showdown and last part. It is to sad for so many good characters.

UNIT: The longest Night

Hey Guys,
welcome to the best adventure of the UNIT serie and the sadest, because UNIT – The longest Night isn’t afraid of anything. So what do we have? This is definitily with a lot of Spoilers. Because i can’t tell anything about the adventure without talking about it.

For our people

This adventure is about a few bombing attack. The people that took the bombs are people that never have anything to do or contact with such extremes. It is really fast clear that they get brainwashed. This is the highlight of the serie. It is give us a conspirisousy that end in the last adventure of the serie. The story take loose ends and gave a few answers. It is not that i haven’t anything to criticize.

Jump and Jump

This is what really often happend in the Doctor Who Stories. But this is something i really dislike. That are the many jumps in scenes, places, times. They are so short scenes and it gets on my nerv. Also the news that are again and again in the story, getting on my nervs. It is in this story a working style medium but i hate this things. But this is just my opinion. But all that can not stop me from loving this adventure and a little bit hate because last point that will come now.

Spoilers

The Story starts with a big death or maybe death? Hoffmann have a great start and i love this character. He was strong, intelligent and reacted so fast. My thought was why we don’t get him or Dalton in the Doctor Who serie in UNIT. Now we know. We start with this sad death. I am very emotional after that. But it is not the only thing. Dalton has the whole adventure to play himself into heart and when he not already was there, he would after the singing in the car. So we get to see this sides on him, see him closer to his comrades, start to understand and love UNIT, we get to doubt him and we hope that he will the good and the living and it ends with his death.
Now i am a emotional tailcout.

DW: S09x07

Hey Guys,

here we go with the new Doctor Who episode. This Episode is a result of the big Special of Doctor Who. The peace between Zygons and humans are on the edge.

What happend to UNIT and Kate?

I can’t stop asking that question again everytime UNIT is on TV again. I am so happy that the Brig can’t play anymore in Doctor Who because when i see Kate, than i believe that it would be horror what they would do to the character. Kate as the daugther of him should be smart and understand better than anything the danger and the mistakes that can be made with Aliens. But her solution is attacking them. Her solution is ending the peace. Her solution is ignorant and dumb. What they say is just stupid nonesense? This is not nonesense this is a group of Zygons that want the whole earth to know about them. This what was totally clear from the beginning. Listing would be amazing and would actually stop alot of problems. Of course UNIT is going on single missions. Really Kate alone on a town the always talk about? Than again Clara leading a military mission?
I am sorry. I beginn to hate would UNIT become in New Who. UNIT’s people were smart and wanted to protect the earth from danger. They were ready to sacrifice themself, but they weren’t ignorant. The weren’t against aliens. Because their scientist was a alien and they know it. The Doctor was their friend… they did act on different occasions with violance but just when nothing else seems to work.

Good idea

The Story idea is good and of course right now acutal. But the episode is lacking of everything. The Doctor, Clara… UNIT and logic. And don’t answer me with it is Doctor Who. Of course many episodes are not logic but most of them are logic in the Doctor Who logic but this? I want to say something good, i want to like it. I love Peter Capaldi as Doctor but the storys are lacking so much…
This situation they created is so real and than the distory it with this unrealistic actions.

Osgood the questionmark

I never got what everyone liked about her. She is a fangirl and? She gots on my nerve with her Doctor clothes and her fangirling. I wanted characters that question the Doctor. Characters that make him think. Characters that say no to him. But Osgood does nothing but fangirling. Is she intelligent yes but she doesn’t use it to think for herself. She is just saying what the Doctor is saying like everyone else. I am tired of these characters. Not just Osgood… Clara is in the end not different, her trust in the Doctor is so big, like Amy or Rose. Even Martha und Donna didn’t question him enough but they actually question somethings…or say no to him in Marthas case.
I am sorry but episodes like that and Osgood are making me sentimental… but i want classic who back. Their were also characters that trusted the Doctor over everything but not every companion was like it… now it as to be a girl and in love with the Doctor… or talking about the underwear of the Doctor. This wasn’t funny or anything else… just unnessassary.

DW: Scales of Injustice

Hey Guys,
i started to read the Scales of Injustice of the Monster Collection. The Story was printed as a part of the ‘Missing Story’-Serie. It featured the 3rd doctor, Liz Shaw and UNIT, it takes place between the Storys ‘Inferno’ and the ‘Terror of the Autons’. AHistory is ordering it between ‘The Blue Tooth’ (Companion Chronicles #13) and ‘the Devilgoblins from Neptune’ (Past Doctor Adventure #1).

Liz Shaw

I always like Liz. She is a good person, competent and really intellegent. But also very controlled and seems often a little cold. She is much alike with the 3rd Doctor. This way never get with them. They really devoleped a conaction to each other. They were colleges and nothing more. So simular to open up. I never was sad that Liz left UNIT. This book is the last adventure from in UNIT. At the end of the book she left and i think that is best decision she made in her life. She is better than be an assitent for the Doctor. She wasted her potential at UNIT. For Liz is example of someone which becomes better without the Doctor, better by leaving the behind. She moved. She really likes him and they could have amazing friends, but they never were.

Positive Thinks

I love the way we get an inside in every important UNIT member. We get a inside in the Doctor, Liz and most importantlly in Mike, Benton and the Brig. We see a part his private life. We see how it breaks apart. This for me the most important part of the book and the reason i like it. Also i love how the describe the relationship between Benton and Brig. Benton is always standing on the sidelines and often he is totally for gotten. We see the Brig or Mike from times but so less something of Benton. He was there from the beginning. He is so loyal and a good character and he needs more appreachiation.

Story

This whole thing with C19 and the Glashouse and so one doesn’t make much sense to me. It was chaos and everyone was special, changed and the story doesn’t get me. So we have that whole conspiracy and Silurian in the mix. The Silurian Story was also not the newest or best. But i love the last part when Liz is with them. It showed us that some people are better and Liz is one of them. I love how the take this story to give Liz a reason to leave and do good in her own way. She doesn’t run away from aliens and the danger. She choose to help them another way, maybe not direct way but an indirect way.

UNIT: Snakeheads

He Guys,
i found time to hear the second story about UNIT. I like it and i am becoming a big fan of the new team even without the Brig.

Intro

The start is a little special. At the beginning we just here a lot of noices and than someone speaking in an other language. To tell the truth i hate the beginning. At first i thought that something was wrong about the CD, but than i got it and when i listend again it just got on my nerve. Most of the time i just skip it. But it is nice because you are in the story and are totally clueless.

The team

Emelie and the ??? working together outside of London. He gets really sympatic. I like how he is moody and wants his coffee. I get warm with him. He is intellegent and open minded, even when he didn’t believe in most things UNIT deals with. But he is learning fast and i like the dynamic which is built here between the two.

Story

Here we go. They hunt a invisible vampire, which is really fun because you never know if this is real. They could just hunt a fantasy and this with someone which has a hard time to believe all that stuff. So yeah the story is fun to listen.

So the next is waiting for me.

UNIT: Time Heals

Guys, i did it, i listend to the first volume of UNIT and i love it. I started it a few times before but everytime i lied down to just listen i begann to sleep. But not today i was awake to hear that really good audio play.

The Brig

I of course borght it because the Brig is having a part in it. I love the character and i totally love his voice. The role of the Brig is not that big. He wants to enjoy his retierment. But he don’t never just sit still when something happend and he did really good work. We can saw he sees things. Things the other don’t see so fast, because they don’t have his experience.

The changes at UNIT

UNIT is in a complicated position. IRIS are making their own thing and are the enimey for UNIT. The Miltary wants his own investigation team under their comant and the public wants to know everything about UNIT and the things that are going on. It makes it diffecult to interact like they did before. When this exident happend the CEO of UNIT got missing and the became someone new. Someone that knows the former incommant woman of IRIS. Someone that don’t believe in the impossible. Someone that wants answers but is not ready to except them.

This could make a difference

We have these two scientists that are investigate a mashine/spaceship. What they did have mass influence of the surrounding. They talk about sacrifice people for the greater good – for their scienes. Sometimes it could be worth it. But is it ever worth it? This scientist are working for IRIS and they decide to sacrifice people so they could do their job.

So yeah i love it, because it has the Brig and UNIT and yes the story is something new, but what is new. I hopefull find the time to hear the second volume.

DW: S08x12 – Death in Heaven

Hi Guys,

welcome to the final of Doctor Who. Actually i don’t know what i think about this episode. There are two big negative points for me in this episode – apart from the death of a few people.

Cybermen

This cybermen thing is quite uncool. I didn’t like the Craig think in the other season and here again the same. The cybermen were something bad, something cruel, because you could come back from it. Love, a cybermen with out emotion can’t feel love, he doesn’t even understand love, so he couldn’t protect Clara. Because this changes everything… Okay i hate it because it takes away all the dramatic from Ianto and Lisa. Also the rain thing is stupid and i can’t really accept it has just the typicall stupidity of Doctor Who.

The Master

The Master is double-edged sword. I told you that i don’t like the master in that form. But i have to say, that i like the idea of the master just doing this thing to see the Doctor at the edge. To make them more like himself. This is something the Master does in all the season. They were once friends. But i don’t like how it is played. I don’t like that whiny i need my friend back. That is not the Master i love. Also it seems like the movie the never take place. And know the Doctor did what? Kill her? He never could kill the master. Even after all he did, he never could do it. Thats who they are.

The Deaths

Osgold is dead and now a cybermen. That is one of the stupidest things i ever seen on Doctor Who. Really why did they kill her? Why is she even in a room with the master? Why is UNIT, which as files like nothing else about the master just in handcuffs in a room with just to soldiers and Osgold? Who could the Doctor let that happen? Really the Master broke out of high-security prison with no one noticing – twice. UNIT and the Doctor of all people should know better. But there it is this dead girl which saved Kate. Also a scene that was totally unnessary? Why did they do it? It doesn’t really have an effect because right after it cames that emotional scene with Clara.

The End

They could have done so much more with that stuff. Also with the boy. Why was he there? Just so Clara don’t have an happy end? We don’t see any talks of them. He just goes back. What totally is stupid because, he was long dead. There are so many young people dead… i hopped for more. But the last scene with the Doctor and Clara is really good. I love that scene this is emotional. That is typical the Doctor and Clara. But really Santa Claus?

I don’t know what to say to it… So tell me what do you think about the final?

DW: S08x06 – The Caretaker

Hey Guys,

welcome to the new episode of Doctor Who. I don’t know what to think about this. Actually the Story was not bad. I just thing that i found something i don’t like about the Doctor. This hate of soldiers, that he do like soldiers are stupid. I am not a big fan of soldiers myself. Yeah i know i love on Doctor Who UNIT and they are all soldiers. But yeah, i understand that the Doctor don’t like them. But just remember UNIT. What the Doctor does to him and i mean before he knows that he is Claras boyfriend, is totally disrespectfull to all the people he knows and met. Mike Yates and Sergant Benton were never idiots. The thought for himself and would do anything for this earth. The Brigadier maybe makes decision the Doctor don’t like but he respected the man behind it. The Brig was a good friend of the Doctor and he also was in the end a math teacher. Martha Jones began to work for UNIT. His own Doctor daughter was a born soldier, but she was so much better than the Doctor in just one day. I hate how disrespectfull he is to all the people that helped him, people who cared really much for him.

I like the idea that the Doctor don’t like Danny, but not like that. That is totally a point i don’t like about this Doctor and i will not change my mind about it, because i care about these characters very much. They are not stupid. I don’t want him to talk about them like that. It is okay and sweet that he has something against Danny, like a father – to make sure he is good enough. I like that Danny totally sees through him. He is a little like Rory in that point. The Doctor pushes you and you do great things, but sometimes you break at it.

I am not a fan of Danny and i don’t think i ever will be, but the episode is having something and he what he says to Clara in the end is sweet and i really like it. So we will see how the dynamic will work out between them three.

DW: UNIT – The Coup

Hey Guys,

i have got the prologe of the UNIT serie, that have 4 parts. You can download it at big finish for free (UNIT – The Coup) The important think is that it featured The Brig. 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. He totally understand fast that nothing is like it seems and makes a different speech.

It is totally the Brig how we love him. So everyone how likes him, should totally hear it. I want to buy the other parts. So yeah i think you will hear really fast more of it.
