My review of Big Finish #130 A thousand Tiny Wings staring Sylvester McCoy as the 7th Doctor and re-introducing Tracy Childs as Klein is available at Amazon.com here.

It is not often that you see a sequel to an adventure, particularly one from 9 years earlier but the unresolved paradox of a Nazi from a future where Germany won World War 2 loose in our reality is practically irresistible and it works!

As always you can pick up the episode at Mike’s Comics and you can listen to a preview here.

I don’t want to give away any spoilers to those who want to wait the 3 weeks to see it in the US but here are my thoughts.

The episode was absolutely nothing like I expected.

I always liked the character of Rory, I liked him even more after this one.

The tone was the exact opposite of the previous episode.

There was an Inigo Montoya Moment and a side reference to something from the Princess Bride.

There is a significant contradiction from a particular 5th Doctor episode that will have to be explained or resolved.

Something happens in this episode that has never happened in the 47 years of the series, thinking back it’s actually amazing that it has never been the case.

Alex Kingston has the best part in television.

I absolutely loved the ending.

My review of the Big Finish Doctor Who adventure #25 Colditz featuring Sylvester McCoy as the 7th Doctor Sophie Aldred as Ace and future 10th Doctor David Tennant as Feldwebel Kurtz is available at Amazon.com here.

It was a first rate adventure but the most interesting Character is played by Tracy Childs as Klein. Her interaction with the Doctor just cries out for a sequel.

As always you can pick up the episode at Mike’s Comics and you can listen to a preview here.

Hard to believe that quote didn’t come from Washington isn’t it?
