Frozen Time revives the Ice Warriors for the first time in ages, and also the Seventh Doctor who appears to have been frozen in with a consignment of criminal Martians only to be unfrozen in a somewhat amnesiac state. The idea of the amnesiac Doctor is just as annoying when it is Seven compared to Eight, and the plot is really a retread of the original Ice Warriors story, but the cast is stellar - Bond girl Maryam d'Abo plays a French scientist, Nicholas Calf plays Lord Barset, doomed and deluded leader of the expedition. Some great scenes here, and generally good stuff.

Look, I get it. It's a third rate Second Doctor plot with the Seventh Doctor stuck in.
But boy do they write the Seventh Doctor well here! Sylv is delightful and handled with a light touch in a way that Big Finish doesn't always get right.
I'm a Seventh Doctor guy. If you're a Seventh Doctor guy, this is fun.
