I was really enjoying this one until the last third, which is where stuff just sort of happens and the charm goes out the window. There's a point where the three guest characters just aren't needed anymore so they just get left behind all of a sudden... and then forget the whole thing ever happened.

The way these stories are linked together is just so clumsy. I can't be the only one who really isn't enjoying Once and Future? It all seems so pointless and wanky

Overall, Doctor Who: Once and Future: Two's Company is a pretty enjoyable romp, all things considered. While its actual story isn't quite as engaging as last month's installment, A Genius for War, Two's Company still makes great use of its cast and delivers an enjoyably light and fluffy romp. And after all, what more could you hope for when combining such chaotic forces as the Sixth Doctor, Jackie Tyler, and Lady Christina? It's not gonna convert any Once and Future holdouts or anything. But for what it's going for, it's an all-around fun listen. Next month sees the combination of David Tennant's Tenth Doctor and Michelle Gomez's Missy, so it looks like the chaos might only be beginning.
