Paul McGann comes down to Earth with a bump in Doctor Who – Stranded
The Doctor swaps outer space for inner London in this forthcoming full cast audio drama, and – unlike the TARDIS – the Time Lord’s house on Baker Street isn’t biggeron the inside, leading to domestic tensions.
Each volume of Doctor Who: Stranded is now available to pre-order as a collector’s edition box set (priced at £24.99), oron download (at £19.99).
Paul McGann stars as the Doctor, with faithful returning companions Helen Sinclair (played by Hattie Morahan) and Liv Chenka (played by Nicola Walker). Doctor Who: Stranded also introduces a new pair to the TARDIS team in the shape of Tania Bell (played by Rebecca Root) and Sergeant Andy Davidson (Tom Price reprising his role from the popular Doctor Who spin- off, Torchwood).

Actor Paul McGann said: “It’s not our usual fare, so it feels refreshing and somehow wintry. It’s dark outside. That time of year when the walls are closing in a bit. It’s got the flavourof a bunch of polar explorers stuck on a rock for the winter.
“What I like most about it is the contrast – the whizzing round galaxies and having adventures, and suddenly they’re having to share a space and they get cabin fever. And so The Doctor gets a bit bitter about it all. But they’re trying to make the best of it. It’s good and it’s funny as well.”
Producer David Richardson added: “Stranded is a brand new start for the Eighth Doctor Adventures. It’s a new setting, bringing in new characters and it has its own distinct tone. There’s no epic struggle to save the universe – this is about a group of people living in a house in London in 2020, and their struggles to find a role in this world. Of course there will be aliens and strange threats along the way, but the focus is always on our characters. It was a joy to see how much Paul McGann loved these scripts – some of his favorites out of all the ones we’ve made.”
