VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
As already noted this episode starts out as Top Gear in space with Funky Board, Garden as the non-PC host, the Ferret and for me the best casting of James Fleet as the boring one. The wider setting is a space ship show where the Kith empire are collaborating with the humans in the name of peace, there having been a bloody war in recent memory. The Kith are a wonderful strange alien with a ludicrous West Country accent that make me chuckle whenever I hear them.
The Doctor as ever solves the mystery of the murder(s) and prevents inter-stellar war via Lucie uesting as Lucie Vauxhall Nova on the Max Warp show which gives her and the Clarkson-esque Garden plenty of stereotypical lines. This is even kept up to the end where Lucie rates the TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Shed) because it is a nice shade of blue!
Plenty to like here, some parody and a decent couple of twists.

second in the latest series of audio plays to feature paul mcgann's doctor who and his current companion, sheridan smith playing feisty no nonsense lancastrian teenager lucie miller.
This, like the others in the range, is a complete story told in forty five minutes, and comes on a single cd. the rest of the cd [it runs an hour in total] contains interviews with the cast and crew, a trailer for the next story, and a couple of tracks giving the music from it on it's own. these two tracks are best described as interesting.
In this story the doctor and lucie arrive on an alien world as a spaceship is being tested as part of a tv show. this is a parody of the bbc car show top gear, and former goodies star graeme garden does a very good job playing the host. when a murderer strikes, the doctor and lucie turn detectives. can they find the killer, and prevent intergalactic war?
A hugely entertaining little story, with lots of comedy that arises from the characters and how they interact. thus there are several genuine laugh out loud moments. All the cast are very good and bring some good depth to their roles, and there are some clever twists and turns to the plot. come the solution, you will be surprised. but the clues are there.
A great little story, well up to the standard of this range

A very fun episode

Format:Audio CD
Max Warp brings the fun combination of a veritable "boys with toys" episode and combines it with the threat of interplanetary war.
The plot revolves around a show MAX WARP about the latest spaceship designs. As the Doctor is admiring the various ships and Lucie's eyes are rolling at the apparent overstock of testosterone a murder among the cast of the show and suspicion being thrown on an alien race who once waged war against them in blame.
Into the mix comes a prime minister with a "spinbot" to advise them of the peoples preference to as to war or peace. What will she decide and how will the Doctor manage to save the day.
This episode has a brisk pace and a healthy mix of comedy and a little bawdy humor. Just right for an early episode in the season.
It's is definitely a keeper
