Doctor Who: Shadow of the Sun (Big Finish Audio)




It's always worth picking up the audio adventures of the Doctor when Tom Baker reprises his role. And when he's joined by Louise Jameson as  Leela and John Leeson as K-9. Shadow of the Sun is no exception.

Landing on one of the most luxurious interstellar liners in the galaxy you would think the Doctor and his companions could relax have a few entrees and a glass of their favourite beverage but of course that is never to be. There's something strange going on here and the Doctor is determined to get to the bottom of it.

Meanwhile one of the passengers who was trying to get off the ship has gone missing but he hasn't gone the way he hoped as the computer threw him out of the airlock. Of course there are strangers on board. Everyone here is a member of a society except our intrepid heroes who inevitably are blamed for the disappearance. 

The ship is on it's way to the nearby Sun and the temperature is about to rise. What are these people up to and why has the computer seemingly gone all Hal 9000 on everybody? Time is running out.

This two part adventure was actually quite exiting and a welcome distraction on a Sunday morning. Highly recommended.
