Episode 10: The Long Backlash
A mysterious temporal phenomenon threatens the very existence of New Earth’s Catkind! Going back to the origins of everybody’s favorite felines, Lady Penelope soon discovers that the survival of the exiled Cheetah People has been put in jeopardy by her own past actions. Altering history always comes at a price – and sooner or later, Time always claims its debts.
Episode 11: The House on Bedford Street
Following
the Face of Boe’s ominous warning, Penelope tracks down the TARDIS of her new
nemesis, the alternate incarnation of the Master known as Miss Jones, to 1773
London. Now masquerading as the madam of an upmarket bawdy house, the
life-stealing Time Lord offers her a quid pro quo transaction – with the
fate of one of Penelope’s protégées in the balance!
Episode 10 was obviously deeply connected to the TV episode SURVIVAL - you might even think of it as a sort of sequel, tying up the future of the Cheetah People to the past of New Earth's Catkind... and allowing me to bring back an old 'continuity debt' of Lady Penelope, namely her meddling in the historical course of the Sontaran-Rutan War, way back in season 7... hence the title of the episode (The Long Backlash), in which our Time Lady had to ensure the exiled Cheetah People's survival against everybody favorite potato-headed genociders.
Episode 11 was another "boomerang effect" story - a direct sequel to the much more recent The Beauty and the Beast episode. It ended with Lady Penelope taking her three protégées (the three Australian girls from the Bainbridge school!) to the world of Avalon and allowing her to take a welcome break in order to contemplate some important, post-regeneration decisions.
See you in a few weeks for the final batch of episodes!
I always admire your ability to summarise clearly complex adventure sessions in such a succinct manner. Thank you, as ever, for chronicling your games.
ReplyDeleteThanks! That being said, since season 1, my blurbs have gone from two-liners to twice that size ; )
