"I thought I was God!"

Aware of the adverse effects their recent adventure in Colditz castle have had on his companion, the Doctor takes Ace to the sun kissed island of Ibiza in 1997, just as the Club Culture is starting to kick in.

But something strange is happening at a newly opened Club, the owners of which claim to be angels sent by God to save the souls of the young people frequenting their establishment.

Who is Liam and why does he carry a picture of Ace in his wallet? Are brothers Jude and Gabriel really angels, or something more extra-terrestrial? And could it be that God really is a DJ?

If I start by saying that Tony Blackburn is the best thing in this audio play, it might give you some idea of how bad the rest of it really is! But the first King of the Jungle does get some of the best lines in the play, and his delivery is that of a professional. My respect for the man has gone up a lot for his presence here.

Of the rest of the cast, nobody truly stands out. Sylvester can't seem to decide between being mysterious or humorous and Sophie too is struggling a bit with her performance in this one, trying to balance the angst of Ace against the supposed new found maturity of McShane from their previous play, Colditz.

In such circumstances a member of the guest cast would usually get a chance to shine, but Tony aside nobody does. David John has more of the story than the other youngsters in the cast, but he portrays Liam as being more wet than a Wimbledon fortnight. Carlos Riera's Gustavo is an interesting character, but his motivations are obscure to say the least. And while Matthew Brenher and Neil Henry try hard as angels Jude and Gabriel, they never rise above the ordinary.

Not that the play is all bad, the first couple of episodes show definite promise. They are let down mostly by episode four, which ends up a bit of a mess really, while part three begins the decline. The ideas are interesting and this is a brave attempt at something different from the Big Finish stable and new author Joseph Lidster. And the cover design is quite breathtaking.

But ultimately any audio play is only as good as the sum of its parts, and the parts here are just not good enough. Though at least it doesn't qualify for Nul Points.
