Gallifrey, series 1

[nwhyte]

Am sitting on Eurostar en route to London and ultimately Bath, where I am staying tonight and speaking at a conference tomorrow. I managed to get through the four plays in the first Gallifrey sequence this week, and they are fun and enjoyable if not necessarily great works of literature

Is it available on line or do I need to buy a CD?

I've quite enjoyed these so far; have listened through the end of the second season, though haven't felt too inclined to go for the third yet as it's getting a bit silly. I listen to them in chunks while at the gym or cleaning the house so it's just something interesting to occupy my brain, but not too much of it. :)

There's a community for the series now: gallifrey_fic, not all for fic despite the title. I've rambled a bit about both seasons' ends in two posts there.

That nearly put me off Doctor Who for life; the stories, performances and... well... everything reeked of desperation. Even Michael Jayston who's normally brilliant...

i never cared for Baker (C), his performance epitomized everything that was wrong with the 80s - and TOATL was so bad it put the whole show under a big cloud for me... I don't think I gave McCoy a fair chance at the time when he took over, it was only seeing his last season and a half again some years later that made me appreciate that there were interesting directions in his performance...

ME TOO.

I loved the first season because ti was so light, just wait 'till you get on in the second season.
