What do/did you think of it?
For myself I thought great premise, but maybe Peter should've done the bulk of the narration.
Regards

The narration was great not complaining but i guess Purves does a better First Doctor lol. I like small intimate ,audio Low Budget ๐คช,drama. They should have kept the location out of the blurb as it would have been a very nice reveal too and The Prime Minister...yeah enough said {Spoiler} A fungus-yep ๐
and the extras were lovely Has Mat written anything else for BF? No just this one
Regards

I'm thinking of saving Torchwood Smashed for as long as I can so I have it to look forward to a little longer. I wonder how long it will take before I cave in? Months, weeks, minutes? :-) Same here. I am very tempted because work really puts me in the mood, but I want to save it for my scheduled weekend BF binge. I think it will be fun.

another First listen
we never really got a Zoe meets the Daleks apart from the final scene to The Wheel In Space where the Doctor gives her a mental taster...(I know she meets them In Daughter of The Gods soon) This will be interesting .

This borders on cruelty. Yes. Can I forgive ? but I was warned๐ There is a VERY good reason certain cast members, including one very famous one, do NOT have their real names on the cast list. Good on David.
He must have been very aware what he had gotten himself in there, but back then just took the job because a) money and b) it was remotely connected to Doctor Who, even if it was the worst bit EVER.

3/4 of the way through Terror of the Sontarans, and I'm struggling to understand why this has a fairly modest review score on the**********.com. Ok, the Lord Flashheart-esq character may be a tad over the top, but the story is fairly creepy and has yet to reveal it's hand fully even at this stage. I really enjoyed 3/4 of this story, but it gets a bit messy in the last episode when the combat and action starts. Which is a shame because it was so absorbing up to that point. 7 out of 10, should have been an 8.

The Hollows of Time
So much for reputations! I've heard a lot of 'bad' about this story and guess what? I enjoyed it!
There's one obvious bit missing but that's not the fault of anyone involved in the audio, apparently BF weren't allowed to use him openly. (Which I think was daft when you consider what a dedicated group of fans enjoy BF, as if any of us would have been bothered by two different versions of one character turning up in different media around the same time. We're Who fans for goodness sake, from 1963 to 2019, we know all Times are now where the Doctor is concerned!)
But with a bit of 'mental editing' as I went along to put The Missing Character Reveal back in, I thought it was a good, complex story which did make sense - at least in that crazed, megalomaniacal way that "Professor Stream"'s schemes do! {Spoiler} *Peri voice* 'Professor Stream! He was The Anagram all the time!'

I really enjoyed the story and also avoided it due to negativity but now I tend not to pay attention to negative reviews well apart from ExiLe I should have listened๐๐คฎ

Now on to DS: The Mystery of Apartment 493. This is very good after the underwhelming first 2 stories in the box set, loving the radio with a life of its own.

Sapphire and Steel-2.4-Cruel Immortality-Nigel Fairs
So far this had been the one that actually was a s bleak as the Tv show was.with lots of connections to the original show. Much as Warner and Harker are good in the roles and this is a better show case of their talents than the others i heard. My preference, good as it is ,with their performances were ,will be for McCallum and Lumley they had that otherworldly not coldness ,but a slight distance ,to their performances.Analytical and almost microscopic scrutiny of humanity oozed out of them. But this story was as close to a TV episode as could be.I loved it.

Last night I was in the mood for something bonkers and distractingly silly. Therefore, re-listened to Piece of Mind. The story is slightly non-sensical, but who cares? It is basically a ham contest between Barrowman and Baker. Nothing for an everyday listen, but when you are in the mood, you can as well go full-out.
