Prose The TARDIS Wiki page for Simon Guerrier's story is quite the thing, explaining as it does the background of the Kantian philosophy which underpins events, whether the murder of a baby who will go on to destroy a planet is justifiable, basically should be kill Hitler? Told mostly from Sarah Jane's point of view, we see all of the Doctor's incarnation up until that point attend the child's funeral, each on a mission to knife the thing in its crib with the Fourth Doctor brooding in the corner, biding his time. As ever it's the Eighth Doctor who does the heavy lifting. We know that the Time Lord can't do it, it's not in his nature, so it's a question of what he can do to nudge history in a different direction. Big Finish's Short Trips anthologies were often, quite, quite weird.
Placement: Charley's here, so the gap between the first two seasons.
