In Remembrance is the final episode of Class: The Audio Adventures: Volume Two from Big Finish.
Written by Guy Adams.
Guest stars Sophie Aldred as Ace with the episode title being a reference to Remembrance of the Daleks, her debut as a travelling companion to the Doctor, having been introduced in the previous story Dragonfire.
In Remembrance is therefore a sequel for Ace to Remembrance of the Dalek and In Remembrance has Daleks in it
There is a significance of Daleks being in Class as best explained by TARDIS Wiki:
"Outside of Doctor Who, this is the first - and currently only - major appearance of the Daleks in media related to another TV series (not counting original audio series such as Dalek Empire and Dalek Wars)."
It seem natural that In Remembrance be a Class sequel to Remembrance of the Daleks as Remembrance of the Daleks and Class are both set in Coal Hill.
In Remembrance has Ace being back in Coal Hill and again encounter the Daleks there plus meeting Charlie and Miss Quill.
Soon Ace discovered that she has one thing in common with Charlie and Miss Quill and that is the Doctor.
In Remembrance is a very good sequel to Remembrance of the Daleks and of the three main characters in Charlie, Quill and Ace, much of it is dominated by the interaction between Ace and Quill.
Surprising the reason why Charlie was separated from Ace and Quill for much of this time and having to fend for himself.
I quite like this interaction between Ace and Quill in which they are mostly disagreeing with the situation, their differing opinion about the Doctor and conflicting views of what to do with a Dalek that they got as a hostage.
What a resolution that got delivered to the main plot one that certainly took Ace by surprise.
A definitely well delivered sequel to Remembrance of the Daleks and bringing Ace into this episode.
Also I got listened to this coincidentally just before Aldred's on-screen return as Ace in The Power of the Doctor.
In Remembrance is the second of two Big Finish episodes in Kelly reprises Miss Quill, the other Tell Me You Love Me.
Unfortunately both In Remembrance & Tell Me You Love Me are the only times that Kelly played Quill for Big Finish as she wasn't unavailable for the subsequent Vol. 3 and 4 with Miss Quill being recast to Dervla Kirwan for those two volumes.
Interviews afterwards was with Aldred, Austin and Kelly.
Interesting hearing Aldred's experience doing this story and how it relates to Remembrance of the Daleks and her memories of Remembrance of the Daleks itself.
Also quite a contrast learning how friendly Aldred and Kelly are given that their characters have to be nasty to each other in the story!
Learn from this interview that this is the first time that Austin and Kelly reprises their characters for Big Finish and what a delight for them having Daleks for this very said first experience!
Also an interview with Class composer Blair Mowat.
Mowat said he learnt about Class when it was announced and thought he should write that and then suddenly he got that very job.
Interesting hearing from Mowat how he came up with the music for Class and the choice of instruments in reflection of the characters.
