Doctor Who:
War Against The Laan
By Nicholas Briggs
Starring Tom Baker and
Mary Tamm
The Laan are posed to
attack Earth after the aggression against the Laan who is giving birth
there. Cuthbert wants to destroy them
but The Doctor’s warning that Earth would be destroyed is going on death ears. The
Doctor tells the Earth President that if Cuthbert attacks the Laan they will
destroy Earth to protect the Laan that haven’t been born yet. Romana is trying desperately to get the Laan
to stop by using the psychic connection she has with the Laan. But she is not having much success. If The Doctor doesn’t come up with a solution
it could be the end of all life on Earth human and Laan.
The second part of the Sands
of Life is actually not all that bad but not as exciting as the first part. It was good but there just seemed to be a lot
of the typical must destroy the alien stupidity that you get a lot of in Doctor
Who. Cuthbert played by “Cold Wars”
David Warner is just that type of character that you have seen many times
before. But even with that said David Warner is really good as Cuthbert and
worth buying the audios just to listen to him.
The performances of Tom
Baker and Mary Tamm are spot on and it takes me back to season 16 as the two
still have that chemistry together.
Their performances has been the high point so far in these series of
stories and worth listening to. War Against
the Laan also has another big time guest star as Hayley Atwell plays the
President of Earth and is good as always when she takes time out of her
schedule to do one of these audios. War
of the Laan was a decent adventure to with a good solution but isn’t as good as
the first part.
