someone who's doing some things
I’ve been a Doctor Who fan as long as I can remember
I got this as a Christmas present. An excellent Dr Who Tom Baker story including Sarah-Jane Smith as companion. An alien planet, the edge of the universe, excellent! Classic Tom Baker. It doesn’t get much better.
I think I should watch more Dr Who in 2011. I think it is actually good for you!
I finished listening to the latest Dr Who (Tom Baker) story, and even though the first episodes weren’t up to much, in the end I enjoyed it.
It is interesting to see (hear) how different the stories are from what gets onto the TV Dr Who. The latest audiobook is in 5 hour long parts. I don’t think that would work on TV these days. Of course, when Tom Baker was the Doctor you could have up to 8 or 9 25 minute episodes and that was completely acceptable.
I’m glad I’ve listened to these 2 new stories, and I think I’d buy the next one too if and when it comes out.
The only question remaining is, what to listen to next?
Well the last 2 episodes of Tom Baker’s latest Dr Who story have come out and I hope to get to listen to them over the next few days. The first couple of stories weren’t so good, but the third one picked up so I’m hoping that the last 2 will be good as the last series was excellent.
Really looking forward to it, and I’ll let you know what I think at the end.
I finished listening to part 3 of this story today. The remaining parts still haven’t been released. Another 2 are due.
Demon Quest is the second new story that Tom Baker has recorded. The first one, Hornet’s Nest was really good and I enjoyed it a lot, but this one hasn’t grabbed me as much, or that is it hadn’t until today. I think that part 3 was much better than the 1st 2 parts of the story, so I’m hopeful that the next and final 2 parts will be good too. They’re released on the 2nd of December, so it isn’t long to wait.
In the meantime I’m going to listen to Alexei Sayle’s ‘Stalin Ate My Homework’, which should be fun.
It was the last episode in the current series tonight and it was brilliant!
I really think that this show has been one of the best children’s shows in a long time, and in many ways it is better than Dr Who, certainly better than many of the David Tenant series, Matt Smith has been a big improvement in my book.
But The Sarah Jane Adventures has always delivered as far as I’m concerned, and not just for children. Each story has been well thought through and superbly executed. For a spin off series it has done really well and I’m looking forward to the next series in 2011.
More SJA! Keep up the good work BBC!
