Trial Of George Litefoot                   


Jago and Litefoot 6.4                       

For some reason I didn't finish writing this review, so for what's its worth...


With the previous episode ending on Litefoot being arrested for the murder of Jago, we find out what happens next.


Its a very listenable story. It would seem all is lost for Litefoot, in jail, his friends dead, and no one to help… Well there is but its a bit of a spoiler. We have the court room stuff which takes most of the first half. Itself proceeding, in order to root out the real culprits. If you’ve seen any courtroom drama stuff in other media then this is really more of the same. Things take a slight twist which leads into the second half.


Spolier section

Its Jago that defends Litefoot in court, taking on an alias (Lets face it we all knew he wasn’t really dead). Though allowing to go to the verdict 



The Colonel is not as out of the picture as it was thought, as once again our heroes go after him. Its not a bad second half. The only real gripe is that the story of the colonel wasn’t as fleshed out as much it I feel it could have been. With one story in this set, being a a bit of a side step, and the first being the introduction. We’ve only really had two proper episodes to find out about him. If this arc had gone over two sets, the resolution would have been more satisfying.


It is perhaps one of the most griping audios of the J&L series

The Last Days of the Powell Estate The Ninth Doctor Adventures 4.2 The Doctor and Rose find themselves in the future, 2036 , to be exact. Though, when Rose discovers that the run down, derelict building they’ve arrived at is what left of the Powell estate , she starts to worry about her mother… It feels like quite a wait since the last episode. I’m not one for binge listening, but with Chris and Billie back together, you just want more. They meet a guy doing a video about strange places who tells the Doctor and Rose about an entity dubbed ‘ Mr Fingers ’. People feel a hand on their shoulder but when they turn round no ones there, feel it twice and you’re gone. The idea would make quite a nice horror film. It has the ingredients, the empty building, the sense of something unreal, people disappearing. The fact that once there felt the hand, if they turn around next time, they’re a goner.  The entity exists both in Roses time and the future, so we get Jackie and her friend in 2006...

 The Three Companions I had intended to listen to Sirens of Time Redux after Once and Future Coda, however as it still hadn’t been released I went for the next audio on my list The Companion Chronicles: The Three Companions. This originally came out as 10 minutes parts, tacked onto the Monthly range, in 20009/10. The three companions being Polly, the Brigadier and Thomas Brewster, and consists of three, 40 minute episodes. Polly writes to the Brig, wanting to find out about the Doctor, having read an article by Mrs Jo Jones that mentions him, and tells a story of when she knew the Doctor. The thing that got me into the Companion Chronicles was the Mahogany Murder’s, I had tried them before and hadn’t taken to the the narration style. With the Mahogany Murder’s, it was Jago and Litefoot meeting and each recounting their recent events. This takes a similar approach. Though they are writing/emailing to each other there are interjections, comments from the other, which is a little odd,...

The Lumiat                                         Missy 2.1                          Missy, up to her old tricks of stirring up the red and the black ants. Only this time its people. All going well (or bad depending on your viewpoint) until a timelady appears, it has to be the Doctor doesn’t it? Who else could it be? I listened to this twice - a couple of months apart. The first time I felt it was OK, but seeing the reviews and it having been rated quite highly, I thought perhaps I’d missed something. The Lumiat: she’s has been in a couple of other audios (Masterful and Timelord Immemorial)  - both of which I’ve heard but in the wrong order. Gina Mckee pays the Lumiat, for me always remembered for being on the Lenny Henry show. I don't really remember much about her from those audios though. With the Lumiat showing up ...
