This is part of the Lost Stories and stars Tom Baker and Louise Jameson. It’s another good old fashioned Doctor Who story, and in some ways it reminds me Indiana Jones films, and that film Congo with Laura Linney.
Anyway. It was a great all round story, well worth the listen.
A couple of pictures that I thought were quite nice.
I’ve had a bit of a break from the 8th Doctor series, but I’ve decided that it is time to go back and pick up where I left off. So the next in the list of stories to listen to was ‘Other Lives’, which was an interesting story and at times quite touching too. It wasn’t part of a big story arc, and in some ways I quite like that. Sometimes when a story is part of a bigger arc it can end up not having enough of it’s own story and rely too heavily on the arc. Whereas stories that just have to stand on their own can sometimes be more adventurous as they don’t have to time down to closely with some big arc that constrains them.
You could argue that as it’s part of a series anyway it is tied to an arc, and that’s true to an extent as well, but even so I think the idea stands.
Anyway, it was a good story with a few nice twists. I enjoyed it, and it was a good one to get back into the 8th Doctor with.
I decided to try out this pickle from the local deli. It’s made by Rebecca at no98.co.uk, and it’s fantastic! Very Limey indeed. I think I’ll have to try out some more of her preserves.
I’m glad I backed both now.
I really must send off my Romo to get it’s firmware updated this weekend.
I’ve just got this book and I’m really looking forward to reading it having just listened to the whole of the latest Bill Nelson collection “The Practice of Everyday Life”, which has been great to hear again.
I don’t often read biographies, but I’m going to try this one and see if I can get on with it.
Yep, it’s time to get back to tinkering with an Arduino again. This time I’m hopeful that I’ll actually get something decent going with it. We’ll see how it goes.
Not for the faint hearted that’s to be sure. I’ve been a Bill Nelson fan for a very long time, and I knew that I had to get this collection when it came out. It’s 8 CDs and covers everything from his first solo album, through Be Bop Deluxe and Bill Nelson’s Red Noise, and beyond. So far I’ve listened to 5 CDs of the compilation, and I’m just at some of the tracks from “Blue Moons and Laughing Guitars”, which was an excellent album and one I’ve not listened to in a long time.
It’s great to hear all these tracks again, I’m really enjoying listening to it again.
