    I can actually hear Delgado’s Master in this incarnation. Derek Jacobi did an absolutely fantastic job portraying this Master.

      Compare Delgado with Simms for instance, they're very different portrayals, but still the same character.

    Having listened to the Fourth Doctor audios with Leela and the Geoffrey Beevers Master, I absolutely loved this scene.
    Her encounters with The Master are some of my favourite Companion/Master interactions in the series.

    An interesting conversation between the two characters, especially since it (to me) puts Derek's Master in a position where he draws parallels with Professor Yana in terms of demeanour.

    Man I wish Jacobi had gotten more screen time! He's absolutely brilliant as the Master and we didn't get enough of him. I honestly would rather have watched him than Simm. He truly captures the necessary charisma and intimidation necessary for the Master. He and Gomez are the only ones to come close to matching Delgado. So glad we at least get him in audio format.

    Leela is honestly my favourite companion. Her personality is projected so much better in the audiobooks! My favourite audiobooks will always be ones such as trail of the white worm, the osideon adventure, the evil one, requiem for the rocket men and death match. They tell a story about leela that is never explained in the show and this listening to this audiobook is so dramatic just because of the master and leelas long background

    I didn't have the pleasure to listen to any of Jacobi's stories yet because I need to catch up with the Gallifrey and the 8th Doctor stories prior going through the Time War's stories. I'm looking forward to it. He seems amazing. Actually, I prefer a calm old school Master than the modern hysterical ones.

  • @2Scribble

    Keep in mind - by this point he's the 'followup' to the MacQueen Master - who's seen so many of his plans fail and even ended up almost dying
    Again
    Not only that - but, unlike the War Doctor, who immediately escaped the Time Lords after he regenerated - the War Master has been (more or less) kept on a short leash and pressganed into service
    Revealing the depths of his plan - of his evil - of his schemes would be counterproductive to all of that

      Leela is referring to the crispy Master, who didn’t engage in social niceties the way his other incarnations did. Being trapped in a burnt, decaying husk meant he was always in a foul mood, so he often acted ‘mask off’ so to speak.

    • @almighty9539
      @almighty9539 24 дні тому

      I suppose the reason why the Crispy Master was honest is because I don't think that he can keep his charm because of his looks, especially his pain of being in a burnt decaying husk. Yes, there are a few stories where he turns on the charm, but that is when he's wearing a mask, or in his TARDIS disguised as a statue or even in a planet where there's a species not bothered by his looks
