June 26th, 2023 - 6:41pmWill this novelisation include any new material that wasn’t included in the television episode? I’ve not long read human nature and that was very different from the television adaptation and I found it very interesting.
I want to buy this but I don’t think I’ll bother if it doesn’t give me some new way to enjoy the story that I couldn’t just get from watching the special.
