Halloween: Doctor Doctor Doctor and Other Stories (Release Discussion)

Halloween: Doctor Doctor Doctor and Other Stories – Available 06/10!

Dare you venture into the dark once more? Across time and space, fear lurks in the hidden corners of the universe. Ancient horrors awaken, new monsters stalk the shadows, and the Doctor’s worst nightmares are ready to play once again.

1. Doctor, Doctor, Doctor by Stewart Pringle and Lauren Mooney - a Seventh Doctor adventure

In the 1980s, four physics students find themselves drawn to a strange mirror, seemingly haunted by a ghastly figure carrying a distinctive umbrella…

As they experiment with the mirror, they begin to lose themselves in its mystery, as the entity within seeks to break into their world.

2. The Song of the Reed Man by Katherine White - a Third Doctor and Jo Jones adventure

When the Doctor and Jo land in the marshes of Essex, in 1562, they find themselves at the dawn of England’s witch hunting mania.

But lurking beneath the waterways, there lies an ancient evil, ready to hunt and feast. Can the Doctor help an isolated coven see reason, before it’s too late?

3. Office Space by Georgia Cook and Fio Trethewey - a UNIT adventure

It’s Max’s first night shift at the UNIT liaison call centre in Chester, screening emergency calls from the public for signs of extraterrestrial threat.

But tonight the calls hold something far deadlier, and soon Max and his colleagues find themselves fighting for their lives to survive against the night itself.

4. Overworked by Hannah Kennedy - a Fifth Doctor and Nyssa adventure

When the TARDIS locks on to a signal calling out for a ‘doctor’, Nyssa and the Doctor are brought to a hospital on Earth in 1974.

However, with the help of cleaners Harold and Sophie, they discover that something is very wrong with the patients here, something otherworldly.

Is it In the Unit story? It makes me really happy to see some representation for my trans masc siblings, they really dont get enough. Even trans women like me get more. Its also awesome that big finish employs such an incredibly talented trans man like Fio Trethewey.

Tell you what, what a glow up for this writer!!

I’m so tempted to give it a 5 star, Overworked that is. Just superb, and really not extraordinary plot wise but it just worked. I love Nyssa and she was tugging at my heartstrings here.

The UNIT story was also really nice, I liked it a lot. I’ve got the other two left to do! I like that in these anthology sets I can choose my own order.
