Also, a small detail about Spoonful: I suppose since they had a Fountain story here, and Missy does sometimes do a Deadpool and break the fourth-wall, it would be a bit much of wacky-overkill, but I was a little surprised the genie was kind of just a standard 'who summouns me' fairy tale genie. Given how much the story is riffing on Disney tropes, I kind of expected them to do a take on the Williams/Smith wise-cracking, fourth-wall breaking genie (this came out the same year as the remake, to boot). Instead of movie parodies, though, it'd be a bunch of inside jokes and references about Who and likely BF.

Bit bonkers this box set, the characters seemed a little over the top (maybe that's the point?) However must admit i did enjoy it especially Belly Of The Beast which is something i would'nt have said about Missy stories on tv. I agree. I couldn't get into first time, but on a second attempt later I really enjoyed it. That said I found the Missy/Monk story a little puerile, I enjoyed it, just found it a tad too silly.

I'm really keen to see what Series 2 could be like. Has there been any word about when we'll get to hear Vol 2? Hopefully 2020.

OK, it's no good, I have to hold my hand up and say that I simply do not understand The Broken Clock, I like it, I simply don't understand it. I have just finished listening to it for the 4th time, quietly and concentrating, I JUST DON'T GET IT Can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere it's explained simply, preferably before my brain turns inside out

With the War Master series coming to a close I can see them cycling through Masters without them all having their own series.

Guys, don’t make me make ‘the War Master series is finishing’ the new ‘Dreyfus is the first Master’. I mean, it may be, I don’t know for certain, but Scott has been talking publicly about that idea being news to him.

Who exactly said it that there would only ever going to be four parts to the series? Wasn't this mentioned in Vortex? I vaguely remember seeing it recently.

Also I couldn't help noticing the new story is illustrated with a picture of Sir Derek holding a copy of Anti-Genesis. Which means it was either photoshopped into an old photo, or he's been back to do some more recording since Anti-Genesis. (Ok, it was probably Masterful, but let's not let facts spoil a good theory...)

Late to the party as usual.
Just finished Spoonful, very good. I don't always take to 'narration' but this worked very well. And I learned two new words!

Divorced, Beheaded Such a comic romp with the cowardly Monk versus the wiley Missy, and neither believing a word each other says. Mostly.
Another great fun hour thanks to Mr Dorney.

Broken Clock.
A tour de force concept. I prostrate myself before the amazing imagination that came up with it.

Belly.
And finally completed this set. Sufficient references back to previous stories to make it into a whole series, and I look forward to hearing the next lot.
(I haven't come across Kobolds since my D&D days. Yes, I know they're germanic mythic figures, but still...)
