Goodbye Karl Erich was a very good RMT and interesting in many ways. I had heard Kevin McCarthy in the Sherlock Holmes adaptations but he handles the central european accent nicely without overdoing it. And talk about multi-tasking -- Bryna Raeburn! At least 3 roles I counted. I thought the \'old diary\' angle was effective in this show ... but I was a bit disappointed after the show was over. I was psychologically prepared for the Doctor ending up in a concentration camp or something, and the man who orders his execution is Karl, and by saying goodbye, the Doctor makes the same gesture so many Jews made in the camps -- you may be killing me, but I have won, because you have lost your humanity. The diary angle would have been perfect with this conclusion, as a testament to one man\'s fate. Everything seemed to be pointing that direction, just as in history -- the seduction of young, idealistic men, who slowly turn away from their \'old\' morals. So I was let down by the end which I thought was melodramatic. But that does mean I was captivated up until the end, and the story caused my imagination to create its own conclusion, which makes it a very good story. And the purpose of something like RMT is to make your mind into a theater.
