So, for context, in case people don't know, I'm blind and thus this is all audio. With the audio described versions of all the new series, my book collection and my big finish collection, my doctor who collection rounds out at 180 gb. Therefore, I think I might have got it all now.

I've been reading quite a few of the old books of late, and some thing strikes me as odd. Why is Adric hated so much? He seems like quite a 3-dimentional, intelligent character to me.

I'll guess we'll never know.
Yugoslavia's back baby...

How the hell did this happen?
Well...we don't actually know. Just sort of happened one day.
Is it a reunited Yugoslavia in the 21st century? Is a rebel colony world in the far future? Is it a race of cyborg neo-life at war with any assimilating organisms they come across in the far far future? Who knows, who cares?
New Yugoslavia just is.

No, I'm serious. I really don't get why everyone hates him so much, unless it's to do with the actor.

The silence at the end of that story was deafening with the death of Adric

I don't know how they could do that, they should have killed off Tegan. Killing her off would be a public good.
