The Mouthless Dead (10.1)

    Big Finish Special Release

 

This is an historical tale, where the Doctor, Jamie, Ben, and Polly land in the underground where they’re waiting for the unknown soldier’s coffin to come through London, to arrive for a very public viewing in the 1920s as the country is mourning their dead from WWI. So there are souls of the dead waiting in the tunnels, made real by the mourning of the people of London. What can the TARDIS team do? Well, how about reunite a couple that had been separated by war, turning the destructive ghosts away. Meh. I like the conclusion but it’s the weakest story of the group. Still good but I just couldn’t relate, being from the US and all.
