Doctor Who: Ghosts (Big Finish/audio)

 
















After being disappointed by my last Big Finish purchase the arrival of a new David Tennant as the Doctor with the wonderful Alex Kingston in tow certainly improved my mood during the current lock-down. 

The Doctor & River Song arrive on a planet renowned for it's ghosts. The Doctor doesn't believe in ghosts but this is the most haunted place in the galaxy. Trouble is the "ghosts" are dying. How is that possible? Add to that a party of tourists, strange mists that need to be avoided an a mystery develops.

There's also this area where passing spaceships seem to crash. Thing is why all in the same place? Can the mystery of the is planet be found somewhere here?

Given the predominance of the Time Lord Victorious story line across not just Big Finish but other Doctor Who media this adventure makes a pleasant change. David Tennants stories are mostly always worth listening to and though there are others out this month, I chose this one. There's more coming out of Big Finish than my pension can cope with!

I actually received this about a week ago but with the need to review some British comics this is a wee bit late. Anyway the next two Big Finish orders I made have arrived today so look out for reviews later in the month. I'm actually having a repeat listening to The Rapture* with Sylvester McCoy Sophie Aldred and Tony Blackburn from way back in 2002!
