The sixth and final volume of Big Finish’s The Eleventh Doctor Chronicles<\/em> concludes the run of Series 7V, bringing the epic 14-part story arc to an explosive climax with peak storytelling and Daleks galore! Yes, we finally have the long-awaited showdown between the Eleventh Doctor (voiced by Jacob Dudman) and the multicoloured New Dalek Paradigm.\u00a0Victory of the Doctor<\/em><\/a>, as a boxset, couldn’t be a better way to give Valarie Lockwood (Safiyya Ingar) an emotional, tearjerking farewell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Series 5’s Victory of the Daleks<\/em> first aired, back in 2010, I wasn’t completely sold on the New Paradigm Daleks — not just the multicoloured designs, but also the direction the episode took by having them unnecessarily exterminate the ones they deemed “inferior.” As I’ve been saying for years, even before returning in the Series 7 opener Asylum of the Daleks<\/em>, they could’ve just used them as backup. And Big Finish has finally answered my prayers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(This review contains spoilers for the previous boxsets – Geronimo!<\/em><\/a>, All of Time and Space<\/em><\/a>, and Everywhere and Anywhere<\/em><\/a> – and Broken Hearts<\/em><\/a>. And don’t tell River Song that I’ve been peeking through her diary!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
