Galaxy 4: Trap of Steel

There isn’t a great deal that I can write about this episode as nothing really happens in the episode. The problem with something existing on CD its hard to really get involved in the story, especially when everything that occurs in the episode is more visual than audio. From what I gather occurs in this episode there is more evidence that the leader of the Drahvins is a bit horrible and isn’t prepared to share a ship with the Chumblies. There seems to be a lot of walking around and after a while it all blurs into one.

Sadly the main problem with this story is that it lacks anything that comes close to exciting. Like the previous episode, we have one of the regulars left in the ship whilst the other two wander around and I think that its ok once but then gets slightly boring everytime after that. The only thing that seems to stand out is Steven who after having to spend four episodes refusing to believe what he is seeing, has finally got over that and embracing what he sees and in some cases fights with what he sees.

Despite the time running out for the planet, there doesn’t seem a great deal of rush in getting things done and we get to an episode that was lost until very recently and its time to see whether the story would have worked on tv better than it did on audio.
