The 11th Doctor Chronicles have gotten amazing. The first 11th Doctor Chronicle was a narrated audio drama of anthologies. Volume 2 moved to the superior "full cast" model that is standard for Big Finish, but remained an anthology. With volume 3, they completely changed everything.

Volume 3 starts a story spread across four box sets. The idea is that it is a series 7c. The entire range takes place between "The Snowmen" and "The Bells of Saint John" in series 7.

Looking for Clara Oswald, the Impossible Girl who died twice, The Doctor ends up in the 51st century and meets a cybernetist by the name of Valerie Lockwood. Their first story is phenomenal. An amazingly done critique of captialism as a concept that is extremely inventive and I won't spoil. Afterwards, Valerie becomes The Doctor's new companion for the rest of this "lost season."

The Doctor and Valerie are a great pairing. Breaking from the 11th Doctor's showrunner's, Steven Moffat, tradition, Valerie doesn't look up to The Doctor. She seems him as a friend and equal. She is snarky, clever, and willing to call out The Doctor when he goes too far.

Her actress is simply amazing. I know how to pronuce their name, but can't spell it and I already lost this post once by changing tabs. But the point is they make her an amazing companion. Valerie is my favorite companion of the 11th Doctor. Period.

The 11th Doctor is portayed by Jacob Dudman. His impression is unbelievable. It is more Matt Smith than Matt Smith at times. You never get taken out of the moment.

The plots have all been stellar.

The best one is technically not part of the line. "Broken Hearts" was added in as a bonus, download only episode and it is amazing. It's a crime that it's not on disc. It is a follow out to the prior storyline and deals with how badly the pair's relationship was strained to the breaking point by that episode. It's Valerie feeling betrayed and The Doctor knowing he went too far and both of them being incapable of moving past what happened until the end. Stellar work.

Another shout out has to be given to "Adventures in Time and Space." This meta episode has The Doctor and Valerie trapped in fiction and having to help a 20th century author escape from a supernatural mystery. The ending, honestly, almost made me tear up with how it talked about how characters and fiction can do so much good and how long lasting characters can be.

I also really liked "The End." A time wimey episode where two different sets of the same events are intersperesed. You are moved repeatedly between a timeline where Valerie is dying and one where the Doctor is dying. It goes hard and the awesome twist at the end is amazingly clever.

Oh, and the first episode may be actually THE BEST season opener in NuWho. No, I'm serious. It goes hard on emotion, action, social commentary, sci fi, and completely sold me on the companion. All in 1 hour. Impressive.

I can keep talking, to be honest. There are so many great episodes. And there are more to come as volume 6 isn't out yet.

Alfie Shaw, the writer, has managed to perfectly emulate Moffat's style of writing but has, so far, managed to avoid the pitfalls of Moffat. If you love the 11th Doctor, you owe it to yourself to listen. And if you hate him, give Geromino a try. I'd argue it's still worth it. It's some of the best stuff Big Finish ever put out. This might become my favorite season of the 11th Doctor!
