I’ve posted about this story before, but I’ve only just finished it so I thought I’d write something about it again. It’s always good to listen to Doctor Who, at least it is in my book anyway, and this was a great story, in true 4th doctor style.
It’s also great to hear a story that doesn’t feel hurried. Foe from the Future is around 3 hours long, compared to the hour or so the new TV stories get. An hour just doesn’t feel like enough to establish characters and plot and get everything done, whereas 3 hours feels like plenty of time to get things moving at the right pace and to gradually pick up speed for the climax of the story.
I really enjoyed this one, and I’m looking forward to finishing off the box set, hopefully a little this weekend.
