A review by esperata
Doctor Who and the Doomsday Weapon by Malcolm Hulke
3.0
There's a lot of added information here. We learn more about Gallifrey, the IMC, the colonists and the Primitives than can be shown in the TV series. However, I don't understand why this story is presented as the first meeting of Jo and the Doctor. It makes the relationship between Jo and the Doctor less warm. The author also skips some of the bantering between the Doctor and the Master thus making their relationship more black and white.
In the descriptions of the robots and Primitives you get the sense of what the producers might have liked to do with a bigger budget. They don't sound like they looked on TV. So some good points and some negative.
For the audio version, Geoffrey Beaver has a very good narrative voice.
