I was out, on the road, this weekend.
I’ll write about it later.
For the nonce, I listened to Death Comes to Time, the Doctor Who audio from 2001, and found it surprisingly better than I remembered. It’s only in its final fifteen minutes that it goes terribly wrong. The journey to that point, however, is rather strong, incredibly epic, and surprisingly moving.
More thoughts on that later as well.
Also, why is it so hard to find a radio station to listen to on a long car trip? Why, why, why?
Am tired. 🙂

I’m genuinely interested in hearing your thoughts on “Death Comes to Time.” Because honestly, DCTT was the only time in 45 years, including the nearly eight years before I was born, that I was ever tempted to use those terrible words: “This isn’t real Doctor Who.”
