5.0 out of 5 stars Best recent big finish 25 Dec 2011
By CJC
Format:Audio CD
I bouth this having heard good things about it. I was impressed from the word go. It's set in a frontline hospital in 1917 during the Great War (WWI), the Doctor, Ace and Hex are rescued from no man's land are are given instructions to tell them that there will be a murder committed. There are lots of twists and turns and some great character pieces. I was worn footed in episode one and was waiting for aliens to turn up. I was pleasantly surprised to find this was a purely historical tale, though it does have a connection to 2 past Big Finish audios. I highly recommend this as one the best Big Finish audios I've heard in sometime.

5.0 out of 5 stars hospital of horrors 11 Oct 2007
By Paul Tapner TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
Another audio adventure for the seventh doctor who, with his companions ace and hex. In this story, the tardis arrives in the middle of europe during world war one. At a british military hospital, behind the lines, the doctor has to investigate a murder. That has yet to be committed. And what sinister experiments are taking place there?

Split into four episodes over two discs, this is a very long story, but it's compelling enough that it means the episodes never outstay their welcome. the almost total absence of incidental music for a lot of the tale adequately creates the atmosphere of a hospital. And the story benefits from having no aliens involved whatsoever. The only characters here are human. Some of whom are monsters in a certain way. And all are very well written and played, particularly by michael cochrane who plays the leader of the place.

Ace and hex don't fare that well in this story because the script does at times struggle to find things for them to do. A plotline involving hex rather fizzles out, and some of the big finish writers are better than others at writing this newer, older, ace. But she comes across quite well here.

Be prepared to suspend your disbelief in part four when there's a chase sequence. not something it's easy to convey on audio. As a whole, this is a good and compelling story that well describes the horrors of war and the effect they have on people. But be aware that the end will not make a lot of sense if you haven't been keeping up with the other seventh doctor audio stories

By Victor HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the eighty ninth release from Big Finish in their range of full cast audio adventures starring classic Doctor Whos. It stars Sylvester McCoy as Seven, Sophie Aldred as Ace and Philip Schofield as Hex. There are 4 episodes, roughly 30-35 minutes each, complete with original theme music between each, and cliff hanger endings. Two episodes per disc on 2 discs, and a short booklet with some pictures of the cast and production notes.

The Doctor, Ace and Hex find themselves in the middle of the First World War, investigating a murder that hasn't happened yet in a hospital with some very odd goings on going on.

It's a mixed bag of a story. There are lots of good ideas and the story keeps going off in interesting new directions, but too many of these fizzle out or are never referred to again. There is some excellent acting, especially from an in form McCoy and Michael Cochrane as the deranged yet civilised hospital commander. Philip Olivier and Sophie Aldred show the developing big sis younger brother relationship between Ace and Hex, and get to explore the effects of travelling with the Doctor on the characters. The production is superb, and at times delivers some genuine scares and a real sense of atmosphere. But too many really good ideas are just squandered. The origin of the Doctor's mysterious orders are not convincing, the effects of Hex's treatment could have been more effectively explored, more could have been made of a fascinating tale told by the Captain, etc, etc.

In all 4 stars. There are some brilliant bits here, and it is well worth getting, but the petering out of so many good ideas just drags it down a bit for me.
