Fans of Peter Davison’s youthful 1980'S incarnation of the Time Lord DOCTOR WHO will be thrilled to hear that BBC RADIO 4 EXTRA will be airing some of the BIG FINISH audio drama company's recent adventures featuring his incarnation alongside popular companions Tegan (Janet Fielding), Turlough (Mark Strickson) and Nyssa (Sarah Sutton). Playing an episode a day starting tonight (16th May) at 6pm (in their Seventh Dimension timeslot) and midnight, COBWEBS ends on Thursday and THE WHISPERING FOREST commences Friday…

Here is the press blurb…

Cobwebs
by Jonathan Morris

You know what cobwebs mean. Spiders…”

In search of a cure for a sickness that’s so far claimed six billion lives, scientist Nyssa arrives at an abandoned gene-tech facility on the toxic planet Helheim. ‘Hellhole’, more like.

Nyssa’s not alone. The TARDIS has also been drawn to the Helheim base – and in its cobweb-coated corridors, she soon runs into the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough, her travelling companions of half a century past. But who, or what, has engineered this strange reunion? The Black Guardian, perhaps?

The answer’s here, in the dark. With the Cractids. In the cobwebs.

The Whispering Forest
by Stephen Cole

The TARDIS arrives in alien woodlands, where a small group of humans hold tight against the the menace of the Takers – strange creatures who come by night to spirit away members of their settlement.

But if there’s one thing that the inhabitants of Purity Bay fear more than the Takers, it’s the dirt and disease spread by strangers. Strangers like the Doctor, Tegan, Turlough and Nyssa…

The fanatical Sister Mertil and her hygiene-obsessed acolytes are victims of a terrible corruption – but not in the way they think. Only the whispering forest knows the truth…

Numerous BBC Peter Davison DOCTOR WHO adventures are also available on DVD from 2ENTERTAIN.
