Shadow Of The Moonlight


Star Cops: Conflict 5.2



The release of a new film staring Coral Goldfinch, with its premier on the Moon. Well as she stars as the commander of the Star Cops where else would you have the premier?


Its an interesting idea - a film featuring the Star Cops. The leading lady is making a come back, after the death of her daughter, though things take a turn when her boyfriend Striker Torrance is murdered.


I was going to say that the features the whole team, but I’ve realise that Alice isn’t present. In the last episode she was escorting a prisoner back form Mars so she’s not back yet.


Its an enjoyable audio, somewhat standard. But it has a couple of good twists that ramp up the tension towards the end and and make it a cut above the norm.



There is a nice call back to previous member of the Star Cops, so for long tern fans its a nice touch. Also is mention of Kenzy’s new romance.



This loses marks for the constant use of autospy in place of post mortem and the use of flash lights. 


In the last Episode Nathan had been relieved of his responsibilities as Moonbase commander, it felt that more would come of this, but not here.


A good episode.

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 Skeleton Quay                        Jago and Litefoot 6.1                                 Jago and Litefoot arrive back in their own time and are immediately accosted. The Queen needs their services. Ghosts are seen at a village lost to the sea. So if you didn’t know or had forgot, J&L spent the last series in the 1960’s. Here they are back where they belong, but we don’t get to catch up with Ellie , Sgt Quick etc. As they're off straight away. So the village of Shingle cove was washed away by the sea during a storm, but something would seem to be amiss as J&L start to see ghosts and visions of how the village was, and someone is out to stop them. Its does fall into that trope of small town by the sea, 73 yards does it, the Stuff of Legend also. Not that its necessarily a bad thing, but it sets the tone for the episode. The sea, cli...

Missy Series 1 Part 3: The Broken Clock The adventure continues. In this episode the listener finds themselves hearing a US crime documentary. Impossible murders where the victim, recently killed has been dead for months? Its does take over fifteen minutes for Missy to enter the story and at first I wasn’t getting into it. I do feel that British should stick to British and US to US, as I’m never really sure if its offensive or not. I know I cringe at US Tv programs with British accents, interestingly enough it does come into play in this. So as you can imagine it does that docudrama thing of narrating and reenacting the events of the crime. And it is when Missy eventually turns up when the lines between fiction and reality start to blur. Suddenly we’re not sure if the actors recreating the events are actors, since they can hear the narrator and can’t see any cameras. There’s also the added meta of Missy’s interjections that play with Tv tropes. It does hold your attention, the mystery ...
