Audio Review: Doctor Who: The Companion Chronicles - The Stealers from Saiph

[wshaffer]

Doctor Who: The Stealers from Saiph CD by Nigel Robinson


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The Doctor and Romana I are on holiday on the French Riviera in 1929, and become aware of strange alien goings-on.

I believe that this is the first Companion Chronicle to feature only one voice actor, rather than two, but I can't actually say that I noticed, until it was brought up in the extras.

The plot on this one doesn't really stand out, but it's a great pleasure to hear Mary Tamm in the role of Romana again. The setting and characters (mostly a bunch of semi-eccentric wealthy socialites) make an excellent foil for Romana, who is at ease everywhere and at home nowhere.
