The Tenth Doctor Adventures: The Sword of the Chevalier

Hey Guys,

welcome to the second adventure of the second Tenth Doctor Adventure Box Set – The Sword of the Chevalier. Again Rose and the Doctor are visiting earth to be precise Slough 1791. This is a historical story or at least a story with historical figure the Chevalier d’Eon. The Chevalier d’Eon is an interesting character who lived the first 50 year as man and then at least for a time as a woman. Historian are not sure if he did it because he or she was actual transgender or if it was just a plot to live freely in France. In the Time the Chevalier lived as a man he was spy.

The spy and the alien hunters

The Doctor and Rose just want to have a nice time. Visit the Chevalier d’Eon and look through the big telescope and maybe get a little ice cream. But of course everything comes different when the Doctor sees a space ship form the space mafia. Rose and the Doctor tries to find the aliens and stumble of the Chevalier D’Eon again who accompany them to a costume party.

The problems with the Psychic paper

Again we have an adventure with the typical lightness. The Doctor get them into the party with the psychic paper. The problem with that is that the host believes that he is a Tenor and want the Doctor to perform. So Rose and the Chevalier searching for the aliens and the Doctor is working on his performance.

Listing to it or not

Go and listen to it. It is great fun and I really like the character of the Chevalier d’Eon. The Chevalier is an interesting character and harmonize with the other two perfectly. Also again there is the typical lightness to the adventure of the TV series. So it is so good to be back at the good times of Doctor Who.
