5.0 out of 5 stars Big Finish at their best, 14 Sep 2007
By Barney McGrew "Charlie" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: The Chimes of Midnight (Doctor Who) (Audio CD)
The title of this Big Finish audio adventure is a pun on the title of Welles' 1965 masterpiece based on a larger-than-life character from Shakespeare's Henry IV. This is highly fitting as it is a larger-than-life adventure and one of the best Doctor Who original audio dramas made by Big Finish so far.
The (Eighth) Doctor and his companion Charley Pollard arrive in a mysterious house where the scullery maid promptly appears to drown herself. What begins as a seemingly straightforward 'whodunnit' becomes a creepy and claustrophobic foray into the recesses of Charley's mind and both of the travellers' sanity.
Moody, spine-tingling and well-acted, this is a real tour-de-force and one of the best Big Finish audio dramas to date.

5.0 out of 5 stars Doctor Who: Jubilee - The ACTUAL review!, 9 Jun 2005
By C. Capel "the_tingler" (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Jubilee (Doctor Who) (Audio CD)
This review differs from the other reviews in that it's ACTUALLY ABOUT THE AUDIO CD IN QUESTION!

I've always been a fan of Doctor Who, but for some reason I'd never heard of the audio adventures. I didn't know they existed. This is straight Doctor Who, just as it is on TV, except all in Audio so there's no budget problems.

And Jubilee is one of the finest Doctor Who stories I have ever heard (or watched). From the writer of the recent TV episode 'Dalek' and baring many of the same themes (one lone Dalek, imprisoned and tortured), Jubilee does everything that episode does except much, much better (and in a much more traditional 4-part story).

After the Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) and new companion Evelyn (quite likeable, don't worry) arrive with a bump in 2003 in the Tower of London, they discover that somehow the British Empire is all-powerful and that Daleks are no longer feared but are actually merchandised! That they could be the cause of this major time change is a likely possibility...

If you are a fan of Doctor Who and at least don't mind Colin Baker, you owe it to yourself to buy this CD. Don't argue: just trust me. Incredible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, 5 Aug 2008
This review is from: The Chimes of Midnight (Doctor Who) (Audio CD)
Thoroughly enjoyable, this is what audio drama should be like, very few characters and one setting, and a cracking story that runs at just the right pace.

I can't write too much about the story without giving something away, simply put this is well worth a listen. Enjoy
