When you have seen the joke before, the punchline becomes inevitable…

And yet it must be said, if the joke is crafted well, you cannot but help smile and laugh, even though you know the setup, even though you know what’s coming, it still raises the corners of the mouth and gives way to that the emotion of being amused, of enjoying the company which told you the series of events which culminate in that often repeated punchline.

Doctor Who: Once And Future: The Artist At The End Of Time. Big Finish Audio Drama Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Cast: Peter Davison, Georgia Tennant, Colin Baker, Abi Harris, Sylvester McCoy, Stephen Noonan, John Telfer, Tim Treloar, Michael Troughton.

We denigrate the artist during their lifetime, and only appreciate them when they have passed. The poorer the artist, the more their work is valued after they have departed this world, it is an exchange we barter for where we can, with hand on heart, say we have supported a starving artist, but it is delivered at the expense of a fat profit and unimportant conscience.

Like father, like daughter. One though has the advantage of having had all of time and space to explore for thousands of years, the other, well she has barely scratched the surface of her own place in the Universe, let alone following on in her dad’s footsteps and carrying on the family tradition.

There is always a police drama in which to rifle through, to borrow, sometimes wonderfully well, from literature; yet somehow television and film always seem to rely heavily on certain authors the vast majority of times without searching beyond the known and easily marketable. For every Christie there should be someone of unequal note, for every Ian Rankin there should be a new novelist writing with clarity and sensitivity of plot being given their chance to have the characters they painfully created, up on the screen.
