This Sixth Doctor plus Evelyn tale is one of the best pieces ever produced by Big Finish. The tale involves a parallel world, the Tower of London and the tale of a society who treat the Doctor as a hero and saviour but only as long as he stays in the history books.
Meanwhile a sole Dalek is held prisoner in the Tower and tortured to a breaking point as the Doctor and Evelyn learn a lot about human nature, the oppressive British Empire and themselves. I won't spoil it further, but when you listen make sure you have time to listen in one go and time afterwards to reflect

This is a very dark, psychoanalytical thriller that really stands well as a thriller story, whether involved in Doctor Who's universe or not. The Doctor and Evelyn arrive in London in 2003 ... or is it 1903? And why is it against the law to contract your words? Is this a world that the Doctor can recognise, or want to be a part of? And does he believe that he may have been the cause of it after all?
The Doctor, Evelyn and some really rather nasty humans meet up in this crazy mixed-up world at the time of a Jubilee, a celebration of 100 years since ... the Doctor was last here? Or was he? And why are the humans torturing a Dalek that's been prisoner here for decades?
Is Rochester all he seems? Is Miriam?
So many questions! And none of them are answered till well near the end of this great 2-cd story, divided into four episodes. I like the Sixth Doctor in these audio adventures, he seems to have regained some of his humour and light-hearted tone while retaining his intensity. And Evelyn makes a great companion - a sensible lady who matches the Doctor in wit and intelligence.
Dark, disturbing, tales of the inherent inhumanity of mankind itself. Could we become like that?
Highly, totally recommended - riveting stuff.

An audio adventure of the 6th Doctor.
This story was remade for television as the excellent episode Dalek in the first season of the new series.
Whilst similar both adventures are different enough to enjoy. This is the story of a surving dalek trapped in the tower of London in an alternative reality.
Martin Jarvis plays an insane President of the world with a wife who makes him sane, the story twists and turns. (There is a prisoner in the tower in a wheelchair) and it even makes you feel for a dalek.
It really shows what you can do with Doctor Who and with the audio medium.

There is a lot of similarity between this 2003 audio play and the 2005 TV episode `Dalek'. Both were written by Robert Shearman. Read more
