Short Trips #3.3

Released: 11 May 2011

Listened: 6/26/21

This is another story that basically does what it sounds like. The Doctor and Jo visit a planet with a heavy presence of advertising robots, and Jo smuggles a tiny broken one on board, because she feels sorry for it. The TARDIS is soon overwhelmed with adware and viruses, forcing the Doctor to reinstall the OS. The story is nothing more than an extended joke about ads, which Jo is unable to appreciate because of when she’s from.
