Limited to 500 copies, this Amazon Exclusive is pressed on 180g themed animus Splatter vinyl. “We seem to be caught! Trapped, somehow…” published for the first time on audio, Demon Records presents a narrated full-cast TVsoundtrack, starring William Hartnell as the Doctor in one of his most weird and wonderful adventures! In this vintage 6-part adventure, first shown on BBC TV in February and March 1965, a strange magnetic force pulls the TARDIS down to the craterous surface of vortis. The Doctor and his friends learn that the planet has been invaded, and the parasitic animus is slowly enveloping it in a web-like domain. The giant ant-like zarbi are under its control, whilst the butterfly-like men Optra are battling to reclaim their planet.
Presented across 3 x heavyweight 180g pieces of animus Splatter vinyl, This narrated TVsoundtrack evokes a classic Doctor who adventure in all its aural magnificence. The alien ambience of vortis, the insistent chirruping of the zarbi, and the supernatural voice of the animus are all accompanied by the eerie Sonics of Ron grainer & Delia Derbyshire’s theme tune. Written by Bill Strutton, this was the Doctor’s most exotic and Lavish adventure yet. Linking narration is provided by Maureen O’Brien (Vicki) and the cast includes William Russell as Ian, Jacqueline Hill as Barbara, Martin Jarvis as hilio and Roslyn de winter as vesting. Accompanying the Splatter vinyl LPs are full episode billings, cast and credited, and eight illustrated panels form a superb artwork Montage.
