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 Founding Fathers                                                       The Companion Chronicles  The First Doctor 1.3                                         Steven’s grand daughter takes him to visit the Doctor, yet its not the actual Doctor. There they tell a story of an adventure they once had where they met Benjamin Franklin. So perhaps a little more unusual, in that what’s happening with the current Steven is as, if not more interesting, as the story that’s being narrated. The narrated story tells of the TARDIS arriving in Leicester in 1762. With it being quite warm, the Doctor takes off his coat and throws to back into the TARDIS inadvertently locking the crew out. Getting back in is a little tricky and the only man that can help is Benjamin...
The Iron Maid The Companion Chronicles 12.3 14th  century and a church in France is where The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe find themselves… I’m writing this more fro completion that anything else. I have been struggling with audios lately, just not being able to get into them. This just didn’t engage me, its a bit slow, I should probably give it another go but I don’t really see much reason. Though this is a Zoe/Wendy Padbury story Frazer Hines also features playing Jamie and the second Doctor. There is a scene where Wendy does narrate instead which felt a little odd, the audio doesn’t make the best use of Frazer. The plot itself is about relics from a war, but a war in the future. Its not a bad premise, but the style of the audio isn’t one that excites me. 
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 ...
