About this listen

Clare Corbett reads this exciting original adventure for the Thirteenth Doctor

“To distort the purity of the Good Doctor is an abomination!”

On the planet of Lobos, the Doctor halts a violent war between the native Loba and human colonists. The TARDIS crew departs – only for Ryan to discover he’s left his phone behind. Again.

Upon returning, the Doctor finds that the TARDIS has slipped hundreds of years into the future – and something has gone badly wrong. The Loba are now slaves, serving human zealots who worship a figure known as The Good Doctor.

It’s time for the Doctor to face up to the consequences of her last visit. With Lobos on the brink of catastrophe, will she be able to make things right?

Clare Corbett reads this original story featuring the Thirteenth Doctor, Yasmin, Ryan and Graham, as played by Jodie Whittaker, Mandip Gill, Tosin Cole and Bradley Walsh.

Another superb Doctor Who adventure, very well read. The story was exciting and the voices portrayed by the reader really evocative

cracking

A cracking book that not only captured the feel of the new series but took things a little further than the 7pm TV show can. The Doctor took on the legacy of her actions and a particularly nasty religion. All done in a grown up style. definitely not a book for children.

Great full length story featuring the 13th Doctor

Once again a brilliantly written and read story. I was on the edge of my seat. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well worth it.

Another Must Listen Doctor Who

The writing style is compelling and original. Ryan is particularly well written and is well developed, realistic as well as funny and charming.

The Doctor is SUPERBLY crafted and performed with absolute conviction (The accent is also bang on!!). I would even say this is a more realized and three dimensional character than we have seen in the TV show.

Some of the parallels with real life emancipation struggles may seem a little obvious to older readers but maybe this reflects the way that real life history is repeating itself in ways that might previously been considered as trite and obvious.

Would definately reccomend!

Excellent reading performance and tight story

I enjoyed this reading of the book more than some of the televised adventures.

Clare Corbett does a great job bringing this story to life. Hope she gets to read more of these.

Story excellent. With a great mix of funny and poinant moments.

Amazing performance! Characters brought to life

This is an important story and Dawson is the one to tell it. I adored every second of it. And a special mentioning towards the performance. Jodie's accent and tone are super difficult to master, but I genuinly forgot it wasnt her at some points. Same for Yaz's accent, keeping the magic alive!

Absolutely brilliant!

Clare Corbett is brilliant, the characterisation of the four principles is almost spot on, Graham is a tiny bit off, but that's minor. Overall the plot reads like a 60,s 70,s adventure, all the stereo typical characters and situations are there, and that's nice, feels familiar. My issue is the plot. So, Ok, I may not be the intended audience, probably 30 years olde than I should be...but withiut giving away any of the plot, there are clumsy plot devices that grate, 2dimensiinal characters who are predictable, and no real threat.

That said the central theme about unintended consequences is very good.

Captures the characters perfectly

The Good Doctor by Juno Dawson is a brilliant book and is the perfect book for fans of either Bradley Walsh or the character of Graham. The story is nearly 100% perfect and Claire Corbett does the characters proud. My only slight problem is her Graham but as an audiobook the voices are open to interpretation and it is certainly distinguishable as Graham

Near Perfection

After an adventure and saving the inhabitants of a planet at war, The Doctor, Graham, Yaz and Ryan leave in the Tsrdis but when Ryan realised he forgot his phone, the Tardis team return to the planet to find it, but the Tardis travels 600 years into the future and the action's of the Doctor and her friends last vist has changed the planet in ways they can't imagine.

Doctor Who and The Good Doctor.

I thought I’d try an audio book to see if i liked the character of this Doctor any better than on tv. The story is ok, a bit predictable and the performances are good. Sadly the ditzy, slightly manic characterisation which has been given to this doctor still really irritates me as does the Yorkshire accent. I’m from Yorkshire and Jodie Whittaker’s accent which is faithfully reproduced by the excellent Clare Corbett sounds to me like an actor “doing” the accent and not authentic. Yes I know JW is also from Yorkshire.. I was so excited at the prospect of a woman doctor but this character and it’s inhabiting by JW is a massive disappointment. I’ve known each Doctor from William
Hartnell on and 13s flippancy in the face of pretty awful events is just wrong and there’s a lot of it in this story.

I’ll just have to wait till 13 regenerates into a better actor (of any gender) with better writers.

No criticism of Clare Corbett - one of the best narrators on Audible imo.

Story is ok but
