The Oncoming Storm Ep 159: The Romance of Crime, Unregenerate!, & The Council of Nicaea

AH-CHOO! Sorry, Sorry, the weather is starting to change here at Oncoming Storm HQ and that means one thing: It's time for everyone to get sick again. Josh, Ashley, and Rachel are the lucky ones. They're still about to talk. Poor Jeff however... the less said the better. But the hosts who are able to make it prop themselves up on Codine and prepare to talk about what they've listened to in September. First up is Unregenerate! by David A. McIntee. Does this story of an insane 7th Doctor being busted out of a peculiar mental hospital deserve the exclamation point? Then it's time for The Council of Nicaea by Caroline Symcox, as Erimem asked the age old question of the Doctor,'Why can't I change the past?'. Wrapping our coverage is our first review of a Big Finish Tom Baker story! It's The Romance of Crime by Gareth Roberts, adapted by John Dorney. Find out how well this adapts the novel and if Tom and Lalla can recapture that old magic! All this and news that will have have you saying, "Yes, More!". The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got a nitpicky Josh, a high Ashley, and a Rachel that doesn't like Douglas Adams?!? Say it ain't so!
