Tartarus review
September 2019 gave us a David Llewellyn main range story for the Fifth Doctor, Tartarus. It’s interesting for two reasons (at least): the appearance of Samuel Barnett as Cicero, making this a Big Finish crossover; the introduction of Marc (George Watkins) as a new companion! Even with all that to look forward to I found…

It’s got Captain Jack, it’s got giant maggots, it’s got Jo Jones (Grant as was). Do you need to know more? Well it’s rather splendid and another David Llewellyn triumph. More?

It follows on from his triumphant if raucous entry into the Big Finish Torchwood range in The Death of Captain Jack. News item: CAPTAIN JOHN RETURNS.
Torchwood: Instant Karma review
Torchwood: Instant Karma is a fascinating story for Toshiko Sato and written by the triumvirate of David Llewelyn, James Goss and Jonathan Morris. If you want to know why I think that, check my CultBox review: Torchwood: Instant Karma review. +++ Message Ends +++
Notes on Gallifrey Time War volume 1
In Gallifrey: Time War Volume 1, Big Finish has spun lots of plates to bring various elements of its Gallifrey continuity into line, ready to connect to the various Time War stories also coming out (mainly those of the Eighth Doctor). In this set of four stories, David Llewelyn, Tim Foley, Scott Handcock and Matt Fitton get…
Torchwood: The Death of Captain Jack review
I wrote a review for Torchwood: The Death of Captain Jack for Starburst. I did enjoy this David Llewellyn story, though it was perhaps more entertainment than clever plotting. My review is: TORCHWOOD: THE DEATH OF CAPTAIN JACK. *** Message Ends ***
