“The Scarifyers are back in The Secret Weapon of Doom, with Nicholas Courtney’s Lionheart teamed up with Nigel Havers’ suave but not very bright agent Victor Bright, while Terry Molloy’s Dunning encounters a prototype of the Viewers and Listeners Association. Terrible jokes and scattergun homages to crime and fantasy fiction make this a highly entertaining listen. Well worth catching."
VERDICT: 8/10
