Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Seasons of Fear 

aaaaa Seasons of Fear was really good!

I really love time travel paradox stories, and this one is really interesting and engaging.

It's also definitely where the arc of this "season" of 8th Doctor stories starts to really kick in, and it's exciting... I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next!

(The reason "season" is in quotes is because it's not officially a season, but it's still got a story arc.)

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ The Chimes of Midnight 

A concern, though: I don't know how much sense it makes if you *haven't* already listened to Storm Warning.

It's probably perfectly fine, but I'm not sure...

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ The Chimes of Midnight 

The Chimes of Midnight is incredibly good.

I really love stories where things start mysterious and then get even more mysterious...

The Game of Thrones boardgame is quite good – i like that the strategies are quite complex, but the actions you're actually doing are so simple - you don't have to think about the mechanics, you can just focus on what you're doing

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Spoilers for second "season" of 8th Doctor stories 

interestingly, the story contains a bunch of historical innaccuracies, because part of the overall plot-arc for this "season" is about how Charlotte, the Doctor's companion, shouldn't exist, and the paradox is tearing the fabric of time itself into pieces...

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Invaders from Mars (review, slur mention) 

to be clear about it being one of my favourites:

it's very silly and naff and a parody of pulp radio plays. It's a lot of fun, but it hasn't got much depth.

I still really enjoyed it though.

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Invaders from Mars (review, slur mention) 

…at one point someone uses the f-slur.

Why did you do this, Gatiss. You could have just not used that word.

But ignoring that, Invaders from Mars is a fun (and somewhat meta) story, and it's (almost) one of my favourites. I'd really recommend it!

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ Invaders from Mars (review, slur mention) 

I loved Invaders from Mars, it's really fun.

"Hallowe'en 1938.

A month after a mysterious meteorite lit up the skies of New York State, Martian invaders laid waste to the nation. At least, according to soon-to-be infamous Orson Welles they did. But what if some of the panicked listeners to the legendary The War of the Worlds broadcast weren't just imagining things?"

Except…

Doctor Who • Audio Dramas ░ More thoughts on Dalek Empire (Series 1) 

Heck, I really did not expect it to end like that.

I definitely recommend listening to Dalek Empire, it's amazingly well produced and kept me constantly wondering what was going to happen next!

(I've known about Dalek Empire's existence for quite a while, because a lot of fan sites talked about it, even ones that didn't mention the other audio dramas at all. I can see why it got so popular!)
