Whilst this story is still part of this rather large story arc it wasn’t bad at all really. Some good ideas and 3 doctors! I won’t spoil the story on the off chance you plan to listen to it, but it did lead to a few slightly unexpected twists.

I’ve been a Doctor Who fan as long as I can remember
8th Doctor: The Last
The next 8th Doctor story is another good one so far. An interesting story although far from uplifting sadly. Even so, the story arc is slowly moving onwards with each story and I’m sure it’ll get there in the end.
8th Doctor: The Twilight Kingdom
Ok, this story is more like it. Still slightly incomprehensible, but that’s ok. It works, and I’m enjoying it at the half way point. I hope it continues to deliver and that they keep improving.
Remembering Elizabeth Sladen today
She would have been 66 years old today. We remember a wonderful actress who made a huge contribution to British Science Fiction and was brilliant in Doctor Who and her own excellent series.
She is missed.
8th Doctor: The Natural History of Fear
Well, that was a very confusing story. It wasn’t bad though, and I did enjoy it, but by the end I wasn’t entirely sure that I’d really got the whole idea. Still, never mind. On to the next one in the series.
8th Doctor: The Natural History of Fear
Now this story is a lot more promising than the last two! It already has me intrigued and I’m only half way through. I’ve no real idea where it will go next at the moment.
GuitarJack and some experimentation
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now although I’d wanted to use my iPad 2, but it seems now that it won’t be usable as an input device for some reason. Anyway, I used the GuitarJack in my iPhone 4 and it works very well. Using it with GuitarTone is good too, which I wasn’t expecting as what I wanted to achieve was a non-guitar like sound. I got close enough.
4th Doctor: Destination Nerva
What a great story to start off the 4th Doctor on Big Finish. I really enjoyed this story. A good solid episode which delivered just what I was after. Excellent stuff Big Finish. This is exactly what Doctor Who is all about.
8th Doctor: Scherzo
Well I finished listening to this story today, and I’m both confused and a little disappointed. It didn’t seem to go anywhere at all. There was also way too much stuff about love and all that. I’m not too fond of that kind of thing in Doctor Who. I just think it doesn’t work at all. So I’m a bit wary of going on to the next story in the series.
Pizza, Beer and the Genesis of the Daleks
On Mr Baker’s birthday I thought it would be ideal to watch what is arguably one of the best Doctor Who stories ever. The six part ‘Genesis of the Daleks’, and what better way to watch it than with a pizza and a beer.
These days you just wouldn’t get a story split into 6 parts, but back in 1975 it was perfectly normal. Genesis of the Daleks was a complex story with a lot of characters who come and go throughout the whole six parts. It’s a great story too.
So why didn’t he destroy the Daleks? Well I guess we’re all glad he didn’t right?
