This is the first episode of the Eighth Doctor Adventures. These were envisioned as a series of 60 minute stories that could be broadcast on radio in addition to being sold on Big Finishs website. Indeed, they were broadcast on BBC Radio 7, and proved quite popular. They were launched in 2007 at the height of David Tennants popularity as the Tenth Doctor, and share a similar feel to the current TV series. In this particular story, that feeling is helped by the presence of Nicholas Briggs, who voices the Daleks for Big Finish and for the TV show. This story also introduces us to the character of Lucie Miller, who would be the Doctors companion forwell, a while. Shes a part of some sort of Time Lord witness protection plan and right from the start proves to be an excellent companion.
