5.0 out of 5 stars A tale to make you shudder 11 Jan 2011
By Paul Tapner TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
Latest Doctor Who audio story. Featuring Sylvester Mccoy as the seventh doctor, with his companions Ace and Hex.

Although this is billed as the third part of a trilogy, following on from Dr Who: A Death in the Family this is pretty much stand alone, with only one throwaway line referencing the previous story. And it shouldn't confuse casual listeners so anyone should be able to get into this quite easily.

There are four episodes, running each for roughly twenty five minutes, spread over two discs.

The story sees the TARDIS visit a remote island off Alaska, in 1934. An island that wasn't there a few years before.

On this island is an expedition exploring a vast, twisted citadel. Stories have it that monsters live inside, sleeping. And that the world will end should they wake...

Hidden agendas and treachery await the expedition as they get closer to their objective.

And there's also an asylum to be found nearby. Where one of the patients is a pulp fiction writer who appears to have a slender grip on reality.

The secrets of the island are about to be unearthed.

This story makes no secret of being an HP Lovecraft homage. Ancient monsters and texts. remote locations. People driven to the edge of sanity. But it ticks all the right boxes and does it very well, leading to some very creepy moments. Michael Brandon turns in a strong performance as CP Doveday, a man on the edge of sanity.

A few interesting twists and turns await, as do some creepy moments.

The incidental music can be a bit intrusive at points and a slight suspension of disbelief is required to make the outdoor scenes come to life, but those are minor complaints.

And after recent story arcs for the companions were resolved in previous releases, both are strong and determined individuals here, which gives them good moments.

Not the most original or classic bit of Doctor Who ever, but a very professional production and a very good listen.

There's a trailer for the next release The Demons of Red Lodge and Other Stories (Doctor Who) at the end of part four, and after that are fifteen minutes worth of very good interviews with the writer and the cast.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seen The Doctor? Alaska round... 30 Nov 2010
Format:Audio CD
The third of three 2010 Big Finish dramas to feature The Seventh Doctor, Ace and Hex, is a fast-paced and hugely enjoyable offering from Big Finish. The story is actually quite a straightforward one, with the TARDIS crew arriving on a snowy island off the coast of Alaska - one that wasn't there four years, three months and six days ago, according to the Doctor - where a forbidding citadel dominates the landscape and the feared Lurkers lie dreaming in the shadows.

The Seventh Doctor is quickly separated from his companions, and whilst Hex almost becomes the unwitting victim of human sacrifice, Ace meets enigmatic horror writer C.P Doveday and discovers his terrible secret. The Doctor meanwhile is lured into a psychiatric hospital by the mysterious Dr Freya Gabriel; nearly becoming a permanent inmate and it is while he is sidelined that Ace and Hex really come to the fore.

On the audio commentary Scottish writer Marty Ross explains how he gained inspiration from horror writer H.P Lovecraft, while Sophie Aldred, Philip Olivier and guest star Michael Brandon (of Dempsey & Makepeace fame) also provide insight into the making of the story. Disc One also includes a specially written musical score after the first two episodes, and overall this is another first-rate production from Big Finish. A tantalising taste of the next monthly release - a compendium of tales featuring Peter Davison's Fifth Doctor - rounds off Disc Two nicely, and I for one cannot wait for its release.
