It's clever, but maybe a little too much for its own good. The focus ends up more on the tricky storytelling to the detriment of the characters.

It was a bit random but I enjoyed the story. Also loved the reference to Ramsey 😔

Disappointingly, it was far too easy and quick to guess the conflict/twist/resolution? If you figure out

early, then the next half an hour is just sounds of people running away from monsters. Too little happens after they arrive in the town.

I listened to the first season and half of The Eight Doctor & Lucie Miller incredibly close together and back to back, so all of them are going to end up with the same review for the moment while I'm fixing up my forgotten rec's and clearing out my Currently Reading Folder (which shouldn't be 40+ books, it should be somewhere relatively close to right under ten).

I have loved meeting Eight, and his resigned but inspirational way of being. I love Lucy's moxy, and her mouth. Her mouth may be the best thing on the planet. Even though I know the episodes are roughly the same length as tv episodes, from single one hours to double-extended two hours, somehow they end up feeling like bite-size, leaving me wanting just a little more from every single one.

I may be unfair to No More Lies but I didn't think it worked at all. Suddenly the Doctor and Lucie are chasing time-travelling wrongdoers - where did that come from? And where did the timeloop they get inserted into come from? And it's kinda cute to bring back the Vortisaurs from the first Big Finish story with McGann's Doctor, but maybe someone could have taken the time to explain to Nigel Havers what he was doing? Because he doesn't seem to know.

It's a strange Run Around Story that's all I got say about this one

A short one, this seemed like. Decent, but nothing amazing. Worth it for the set up for another story at the end.
