No Place
That was quite good. The haunted show format was quite fun, and Justin a nice focal character for it all.
Sylvia’s characterisation I thought fit fine, yes she’s rude and judgemental but does have good intentions (sending the crew home for instance is a wholly reasonable thing in the face of events) and tbh her criticisms of the Doctor here are quite valid. He does set up a situation here which puts a lot of people in danger, and probably could have been approached in a different, if not as dramatic, way-and that behaviour is perfectly in-keeping with the Tenth Doctor’s character. Wilf didn’t get much to do, but his scenes were quite nice. All in all a good start to the set.

One Mile Down
Another strong entry to the range with some decent social commentary and the Judoon used well. Enjoyed that there was some emphasis on Judoon as individuals as well.

The Creeping DeathA solid historical ‘monster of the week’ style runaround, with a strong cast of supporting characters. The Doctor and Donna’s partnership has been done very well in this sets, I liked his mention of Pompeii as just a reminder that she did alter his approach to events like this. {Spoiler} Plus not many stories can boast of having a climax featuring a dinosaur that is both out of nowhere and perfectly setup.

Well, I enjoyed the way they set up the first one, but I'm going to have to listen to it again anyway since I was repeatedly distracted when trying it this time.
I'm actually behind in my big finish....amazing. Still have to listen to the other two of this, finish Primord, and then start on the other 3rd doc one. Oh, and Moons of Vulpana..

So just out of curiosity, if your budget could only stretch to one of these story's, which would you say is the best of the three to get?

Good stuff for both the Doc and Donna and a very good guest cast

Was worried all three posts would be the different storys for a second and id still be just as stuck 😂 Im glad No place seems to be the favorite however as that was the one that attracted me the most, mainly because who can say no to Wilf

Of the three stories, it was the only one I properly enjoyed (sadly - I hope to go back to the other two when I'm in a better mood and be more likely to enjoy them then).

Creeping Death by a country mile. It’s the best written, preformed and technically made of all 10DA’s so far.

I’d go with No Place. It feels very authentic and as though it could be realised on screen. The Creeping Death is great, but I think it’s one of those stories that feels rather intimate and well realised purely because it’s recorded in a sound booth.

Can I be annoying and say 'No Place' AND 'The Creeping Death'?  Because they are very different styles of story so I really couldn't choose which is 'best'.
'No Place' is a stonkingly good haunted house story told unusually, and has Wilf. I loved it, but I am a fan of ghost stories (my username IS a ghost story) so obviously this must influence me.
On the other hand, if you want a TV era-authentic Tenth Doctor story full of likeable characters and some fun mixed in with the monsters, 'The Creeping Death' it is. I enjoyed it just as much as 'No Place', but differently.
(For my next equally helpful post, I will be for AND against Marmite.)
