I'm jealous of reviewers...... Sorry. Ill stop. You are right. Its not nice or professional. I enjoy your review 'teasers', it's good to get a one-line 'heads up' on a story and its style... ... and it all adds to the fun of expecting a new story. I'm a classic-era 'Doctor Who' fan, I like waiting on cliff-hangers and to find out what happens, it feels right.

I'm jealous of reviewers...... I'm not... Reviewers have sold their souls for free Big Finish stories! Did I say free Big Finish stories? Oh hang in... where do I go to apply?

I'm jealous of reviewers...... Sorry. Ill stop. You are right. Its not nice or professional. No way. I think we all understood that your post grew out of genuine enthusiasm and nothing more. I can't think of another poster who is more well-liked around here. If someone were ever to say, "I don't like Tin Dog", I think I would need to know why.

I'm pretty sure that Dorney is using a self-write system to churn out scripts while he kicks back and does nothing.

Review recorded... While on the ward. Waiting for operation. I upload it when I can That is dedication, thank you and best wishes. I listened to a couple of your podcasts the other day (for the first time). If I may be cheeky and review the reviewer... I thought they were great, I liked the content and what I might call the 'fireside chat with a knowledgable mate' style, it makes for pleasant and very interesting listening. I will certainly be keeping an ear on your podcast in future.

That was fun. I do love 'Doctor Who' when it's intense and complex - but sometimes it's great to have a much lighter, witty story like this one, that just entertains. mark687 summed it up perfectly as 'Paradise Towers type done right.' and I can't improve on that description; it is a 'Paradise Towers' sort of story, but with better characterisations, much more humour and excellent style. The guest characters are all played slightly 'heightened' (but never over the top) which keeps the humour going even when the events being reported are actually dark, with the sound design and music getting into this spirit too. And the Doctor, Ace and Mel are excellent, the three performances obviously, but also their witty bantering conversations and the way they each play full parts in the mystery. The Doctor may or may not be up to some scheme..., Ace does her adventurous action hero surrounded by explosions - mostly not her fault for once - and also pushes herself to do as the Doctor would, and Mel is the brilliant software engineer with the photo memory that she was originally sketched as in the TV stories. Sophie Aldred and Bonnie Langford were the stars of this story for me, two excellent roles to play and played excellently. You can spot all the nods to the style of 'devolved society' stories along the way and fun they are too, before the story ends {Ending Spoiler} with a stream of continuity of worlds enough to satisfy any fan! And the carefully flagged-up MYSTERY of the Dreamspinners... is never solved or even mentioned for most of the story - a nice joke at our expense! I should say that I was expecting to enjoy this story; John Dorney was the first 'Big Finish' writer I 'discovered' with his perfect adaptation and completion of 'The Foe From the Future', (only the second BF I bought and still in my top ten.) Then his great performance in 'Farewell, Great Macedon' and shortly after that I heard 'Requiem for the Rocket Men', still my second favourite 4DA... just after 'The Wrath of the Iceni' by - oh yes of course... (Thanks to Timelord007 for those story recommendations a few years back; every one a winner as is every John Dorney story I've heard since.)
