M033 - Neverland

The last 8th Doctor story until the Zagreaus (M050) anniversary special is very much a prequel to that story, setting up what will be a major conflict and one of the better excuses to bring past Doctors together.

The story itself does not have anything to do with Peter Pan and JM Barrie, which is almost a shame since I could see the "never grow up" theme working well with the Doctor, but instead the Neverland of the title is an alternate universe being explored to show how Charley's continued existence despite her supposed death on the R101 is causing disasterous ripples. It's a fairly emotional story bogged down a bit by the Time Lord mythology that the new TV series was right to push aside.
