 ::As for whether ''Music'' stands on its on without hearing the other side, I think it does.  Before listening to the audio version, I completely "got" it.  It uses conventions of the British pantomime so well-established you don't really need the other side of the conversation.  '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]'''  [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 23:14, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
-:::I'm also inclined to agree that Spheres stands on its own. Watching it with a critical eye, yes it is made to have the other side with the audience answering back and all. ''But'' it does follow the conventions of panto and when viewed in that way it does make sense. For a 'for example' there's always ''[[Oh No It Isn't!]]'' (and especially the audio version ''[[Oh No It Isn't! (audio story)]]'') which also follow panto conventions (admittedly to the extreme and deliberately). --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 13:53, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

 ::::The other nifty thing about it is that these panto conventions is that they occur for a scripted reason.  The Doctor's forcing the audience to repeat back to him because he actually can't hear them through the portal at first.  Tennant/Davies very cleverly make the audience participation plausible.  '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]'''  [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 00:04, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
