Judge Dredd is heading for Brit-Cit on a revenge trip, after
crime boss Harry Karter sent an assassin to murder Mega-City
One's toughest lawman. Judge Amy Steel also has a score to
settle with Karter. She believes he murdered her father 13
years ago and then married Steel's mother. The young judge
is returning home to confront her stepfather. Dredd and Steel
share one goal - to get Karter!...
Get
Karter! continues a plot line that was left open at the
end of The Big Shot! As Steel returns home to Whitechapel
in Brit-Cit she soon realises that her past has come back
to haunt her and there are more than a few home truths that
she needs to hear. Judge Dredd takes a back seat and plods
on with the secondary plot, but it is Steel that is the star
of this story.
The
cast pulls together for one of the best Judge Dredd
audio productions to be released by Big Finish to date. Both
Toby Longworth (Dredd) and Clare Buckfield (Steel) put in
their best performances to date and Trevor Littledale (Armitage),
Steven Wickham (Harry Karter) and Hannah Smith (Eve Karter)
round off the perfect cast.
The
twist ending is not totally unexpected and is clearly signposted
from the off, but the consequences of those actions undertaken
in Steel's childhood round the episode to a rather depressing
conclusion - anyone familiar with Hitchcock's classic movie
Marnie will love the comparison.
There
are fewer laughs than usual, but the fact that the writers
are eager to experiment with different styles will hopefully
ensure that this series has a long and successful life.
This
edition also features the first Talks Back track where
Longworth, Buckfield and David Bishop are interviewed to give
their thoughts on the production.
Yet
another fantastic production from Big Finish.
