Shada: A Lost Classic, Finally Found
Shada is a unique case in Doctor Who history.
Originally intended for broadcast in 1979,
production was halted due to industrial action,
leaving the story unfinished. However, thanks to dedicated fans
and creative ingenuity, a completed version was finally released in 2017.
The story itself, penned by Douglas Adams, boasts the trademark wit
and intelligence we've come to expect from the author.
It features a compelling premise of a Time Lord prison planet,
intriguing characters, and a touch of cosmic mystery.
The Doctor and Romana's dynamic is as sharp as ever,
and the supporting cast, including the enigmatic Professor Chronotis,
adds depth to the story.
While the animation used to complete the missing sequences is noticeable,
it doesn't detract significantly from the overall enjoyment of the story.
It's a testament to the strength of the script and performances
that the finished product is so satisfying.
Shada is a must-watch for any Doctor Who fan, offering a glimpse into a lost
era of the show and demonstrating the enduring power of a well-crafted story.
