About this listen

 The Doctor has regenerated, having sacrificed his fifth persona to save Peri’s life. But things are not going well... On this occasion the process of regeneration is by no means smooth, for the even-tempered, good-humoured Fifth Doctor has given way to a rather disturbed and unsettled successor. In a particularly irascible moment the new Doctor comes dangerously close to committing a shocking crime. Overwhelmed with guilt for his violent behaviour, the repentant Time Lord decides to become a hermit... Colin Baker reads Eric Saward’s complete and unabridged novelisation, first published by Target Books in 1986. Adventure Science Fiction Fiction

Colin Baker gives a hugely entertaining reading of Eric Sawards controversial novelisation of The 6th Doctor's debut story.

A story that regularly langushes at the bottom on the polls is revisited by the era's script writer with the flavour of Douglas Adams. Lots of universe building and amusing digression.

I found it really entertaining and enjoyable a unique take on an underappreciated story.

Not in 2 minds, Twin Dilemma is a winner!

What disappointed you about Doctor Who: The Twin Dilemma?

I felt the story dragged and colins performances unlike his work on big finish audio work. Where he seems controlled and less over the top with his performance. Also Eric Saward has written a very bad story. That just plods long very badly

What will your next listen be?

Doctor who and the auton invasion

Would you be willing to try another one of Colin Baker’s performances?

Yes, but not an audiobook. But one of his big finish audios. Where Colin is a joy to listen to

What character would you cut from Doctor Who: The Twin Dilemma?

Practically everyone in the story

Any additional comments?

There is nothing i can really add to this review. Except dont buy it. Go and listen to the Visitation instead

Twin dilemma lives up to awful repuations
