STR 1.4 The Little Drummer Boy (Eddie Robson)

Just listened to this an hour or two ago.

It’s an excellently written story with a real emotional punch to it.

It’s a Christmas story with a really somber core, and piecing that core together from the child’s perspective is heartbreaking.

In contrast with the schoolboys tale from the repercussions anthology, it really shows the growth of the Doctor in how he handles changing history.

This is a story I’ll continue to return to.

At 2.99, it’s 45 minutes very well spent.

Mods, if you see this, any chance of adding a poll to the topic?
