‘Tales From The TARDIS’ Review – ‘Degrees of Truth’
Hello everyone! 🙂
Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!
Today, it’s time to check out the tenth story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories. I’m sharing my brand-new review on the short story called ‘Degrees of Truth’, which was originally featured as the fourth story in the ‘Short Trips’ audio anthology, based on the 1998 book version of the ‘Short Trips’ anthology. Like ‘Vigil’, ‘Degrees of Truth’ is exclusive only to audio and was never printed in any book anthology since then. The story is by David A. McIntee and is read by Nicholas Courtney. It also features the Third Doctor and the Brigadier, and it tackles the death of one of the U.N.I.T. soldiers that was killed during the events of ‘The Dæmons’. Was this story worth my attention in revisiting ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’? Continue reading
