The Adulteress and Her Doctor - Introduction (By The Genie)
SYNOPSIS:
When a group of alien leeches follow the Doctor and Robin back in time, they cause the inadvertent murder of a prominent historical figure and find themselves progressively becoming embroiled in the King's world of politics, treachery and adultery. Can they fix time and save themselves - heads included? |
PREVIEW:
Robin and the Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS. Robin now wore a corseted dress, much to her discomfort. The Doctor had not changed. "We haven't moved?" Robin queried, noticing they were still in the same stable. "No. I wasn't setting a course; I was trying to stabilise a reaction that's already beginning." They began to walk as they spoke. "A reaction in what?" "The fabric of time." |
There's not too much to say about this one, for all the right reasons. Jack Hudson (Like Mother, Like Daughter) has written a wonderfully rich, straightforward historical. This is the first historical in the series and, in historical terms, perhaps the best. Not only is it accurate and vivid, but it's also passionate, written as a love letter to a particularly unfortunate and remarkable woman.
It's also the second episode in a row, directly following Time at the Museum. It's going to be a long night!
