  ABOUT Big Finish's THE BOY TIME FORGOT: the all time worst betrayal committed on fans and the worst of all time BIG FINISH production ever foisted upon us. First, we get the exciting idea that Adric might be saved (despite the equally dismal SPARE PARTS nonsense that he can't be; he already was saved in the FASA Cybermen AND Master role playing books). Second, Adric is an old man, played by someone who once played an old Time Lord in I think ARC OF INFINITY. And old man bent on revenge against the Doctor in semi Masterful ways. He also is cruel and vicious unlike Adric on TV and everywhere else. He wants to rape Nyssa and tries. He pushes the Doctor down a pit of mutated failed experiments of his. THEN, to make matters worse, cliche wise and narrative wise, this old man Adric decides to help the Doctor and Nyssa and dies ONCE again. THEN, he's a ghost or something. THEN, later, years later, they make another ADRIC story with Matthew where Adric returns as a ghost again o...

  DARK SHADOWS 546 “When two people wage war, the innocent are often caught in the crossfire.”   “You are Adam. Your heart is here. When this heart stops beating, Barnabas Collins will be a vampire again!”     “Why are you suddenly admitting that you’re Angelique? This is some new trick.”   Louis Edmonds does the narration!!!!   Eric Lang message is heard yet again. Reprise. And a cough.   The reprise IS different but only slightly and the only way I know if that when the door opens, in the cliffhanger last episode, there was NO light coming from the crack by the hinges of the door and in this reprise there is full light. There is also no odd look from Cassandra as she raises the axe. It merely switched to a longer shot as we zoom out and see…Nicholas.     The door behind Cassandra closes by itself. Just before the theme starts, Blair appears in the room.     Oh and the axe just seems to be in Cas...

 DARK SHADOWS 545 545   Nancy Barrett. No reprise. Blair’s face over Collinwood. Narration says his evil power knows no limits.     Blair teases Cassandra (and quite humorously, too). She notices that. She wants to know where Adam is. He won’t tell her. Mike shadow?   Roger comes in and tells them his trip was depressing. It was to see Liz. He lets the Collinwood door slip open again and doesn’t notice it. The door remains open.     Roger does ask about how David is, the first thing he mentions actually. His trip was depressing because Liz is still the same, thinking she is Naomi.     Blair has already excused himself and takes great pleasure in already having mentioned he knows where Adam is and in not telling Cassandra. Her mind is on that and not on what Roger is saying and he knows it. He offers her a brandy, and he drinks one. Roger says, “I just can’t understand it, Liz has always been such a –she’s always been s...
