Product Description
The Brigadier's ancient great-uncle Mario seems unsurprised by the spectres which haunt his even more ancient Sicilian castle. But when the Doctor comes to investigate he finds himself faced with a danger as great as any he has yet encountered.

Format:Audio CD
This audio often doesn't seem to get particularly good reviews, but I really can't say why. I am very critical of my Dr Who and I really enjoyed this (and The Paradise of Death). Its not perfect, but it is very enjoyable. Jon Pertwee and Elizabeth Sladen are both very good. The latter is a superb companion, whom I always enjoy for her enthusiasm and enjoyment which somehow succeeds in not seeming out of place even when stories are unpleasent for her. The baddies may seem to parody those (mad meglomaniac) expected in Dr Who, but are very enjoyable.

I don't understand why this audio production has so many bad reviews. I guess you either love it or hate it.
Paradise of Death was abominable indeed, but Ghosts of N-Space is excellent (for audio, that is; it couldn't possibly work in any other medium). It's wonderfully atmospheric, contains more than its fair share of historical and cultural allusions, some great lines, and nice plot twists.
Sure, some aspects of the plot and characters are silly, but in the GOOD sense of the word "silly". Despite the depth of some decorative aspects of the production (such as the allusions), Ghosts of N-Space is at heart light entertainment, not meant to be taken too seriously. Just lie back and enjoy the ride.
I am one Doctor Who fan who believes that Ghosts of N-Space represents Doctor Who at its very best.

I'm afraid this story has very few redeeming factors. I certainly do admire Barry Letts television work. The Daemons is one of my favourite Doctor Who stories, however he doesn't quite cut it with the audio medium. The Paradise Of Death is marginally better than this but I wouldn't recommend that either.
