Auf spotify gab es das Hörspiel leider nur auf Deutsch. Das englische Original wird nämlich von David Tennant und Catherine Tate gesprochen und die beiden sind mein allerliebstes Doctor/Companion Paar, sodass ich mit der englischen Version bestimmt noch mehr Spaß gehabt hätte.

3.5, but up to 4 because of Tennant and Tate (rest of the cast were pretty decent as well). Short and enjoyable Dr. Who romp. The Doctor and Donna friendship is one of my favorites out there, which made this a real pleasure to listen to.

It’s definitely missing a narrator. Without one it’s hard to follow the story, because one only has to guess what is actually happening apart from the few things the characters actually say. This sounds as if it would have made a fantastic TV episode, though.

This absolutely nails their dynamic, it's definitely one of my favourites. It brings out the best in both characters as well as having a typical and engaging doctor who plot.
10/10 would listen to multiple times

I’ve been enjoying getting into the extended media of Doctor Who. It feels quite nerdy having books and audio dramas, very vintage, very retro, but I’m having so much fun. It’s also expensive but I’ve been getting around with some audios that are on Spotify and some books I’ve downloaded completely free.
This audio was the most memorable of the lot. Volume 1 is good all in all, but this one was the best of the lot, I think.
Donna falls in love with this guy who’s the future king of a country they’ve never heard of. Starts right in the middle of the adventure. They use flashbacks in an audio which gives way to funny bits and change of tone. The Doctor being a 3rd wheel is so funny, just interrupting every time Donna gets cozy with the future king. He’s all like ‘Adventure! Mystery!’ and Donna is like ‘God fucking dammit!’. She also doesn’t like life as a Queen but she’s all like ‘Is great, really. Fine. Just nice’.
The Doctor thinks that Donna is actually going to leave him and he goes into a rant about how he feels like he’s being abandoned and it never gets easier. He also makes a comment how his tin dog left him twice and it’s a funny comment in a rant that is actually kind of sad. Also he’s like ‘no man is going to be good enough for you, Donna’, like all fatherly love, or I guess best friend love.
