Summary

Tom Baker stars as the Fourth Doctor in fifteen full-cast audio dramas written by Paul Magrs, plus bonus features exclusive to this edition.

Hornets’ Nest: When former UNIT captain Mike Yates is reunited with a ghost from the past, he and the Doctor are soon united in battle once more, against alien insects intent on global domination.

Demon Quest: A key component from the TARDIS disappears, exchanged for a bag containing four curious objects. Each one is a clue, and so the Doctor and Mrs Wibbsey embark on a chase through Time…

Serpent Crest: The Doctor acquires a Skishtari egg, whose powers are both wondrous and deadly. When the village of Hexford comes under attack, Mrs Wibbsey and Mike discover that two Doctors aren’t necessarily better than one…

With Susan Jameson as Mrs Wibbsey and Richard Franklin as Mike Yates, these thrilling adventures also feature Michael Maloney, Rula Lenska, Samuel West, Jan Francis, David Troughton, Michael Jayston, Simon Shepherd, Sophie Ward, Andrew Sachs, Nerys Hughes and many others.

Also included in this edition are a previously unheard interview with Tom Baker, outtakes from the original studio sessions, promotional trailers and a PDF booklet featuring sleeve notes by writer Paul Magrs.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I am unconvinced by the whole Big Finish range, finding it very uneven, and often not well written for Audio. I therefore approached this item with trepidation, really relying on the overwhelming positive reviews.

And those reviews are spot on; its brilliant. Tom Baker is at his exuberant best, the chemistry with Richard Franklin and especially Susan Jameson (Mrs Wibbsey is a wonderful character) is superb, and the stories are well written and flow beautifully. Having David Troughton playing Doctor 2 was also a lovely bonus, again the dialogue between the 2 doctors crackles back and forth.

If you're a fan of classic Who and especially Tom Baker's tenure don't hesitate - this is a must-buy.

As brilliant as it promises

Although the quality tails off in the later parts, this is overall a wonderful DW audio-drama. The first episode in particular evokes warm memories of Baker-era who absolutely perfectly.

Great value for money Tom Baker audio drama
