Gallifrey is using the skills of every Time Lord at their disposal – and Cardinal Rasmus is not above bending the rules to gain an agent from the future. Susan is assigned alongside the War Doctor to keep him in line. But if he is no longer The Doctor – is he still her Grandfather?
3.1 The Last of the Kaleds by David Llewellyn
Using his deniable asset, Rasmus takes Susan along with the War Doctor to a mysterious enclave to seek an alliance. As Susan comes to terms with her grandfather’s future persona, they uncover plots and counter-plots. Kaledon is a splinter of Skaro’s own distant timeline – but some histories are inevitable.
3.2 The Voord Alliance by Andrew Smith
When a Time Lord operation goes wrong, Cardinal Rasmus sends in Susan and the War Doctor. The mission’s leader was his daughter, and he needs to know if she survived.
On the ocean moon of Sarros Minor, they find unlikely allies against the Daleks. But how far can Susan really trust the Voord?
Ace and Tegan have been plucked from their twenty-first century lives and stranded in 1860. But who is responsible, and why is River Song mixing in nineteenth century society too?
Somebody is out to eliminate the three of them, as Ace and Tegan realise that this may not be their first meeting with River. Their lives are entangled, and to escape, somebody must pay the ultimate price…
2.1 Castaways by James Moran
Adrift in the past, Ace and Tegan are looking into supposed hauntings on London’s new underground railway lines. But how and why are they there?

2.2 Driftwood by Roland Moore
Back in her TARDIS travels, Ace is cut off from the Doctor, on a stricken spaceship with sixty minutes to live. Something has invaded the vessel – something that travels along wires and can control its metal structure. As time runs out, Ace’s only hope may be a mysterious woman with a blaster and fantastic hair.
2.3 Dead Rising by Roland Moore
With the Doctor and Turlough on ice, Tegan faces interrogation from the Pilot of Vrexel colony.

2.4 The End is the Beginning is the End by James Moran
River, Ace and Tegan must stop Gregor Ganley from changing their past again, and again… and again. But he’s always one step ahead. And River’s new friends want to convince her that assassination is not always the best option. But first, they have the matter of imminent certain death to deal with…

When The Doctor and Leela are chased through the countryside by a headless knight, it’s only the start of their problems. Because they are in the grounds of Hellwood Manor – the first safari park for ghosts!
Mistaken for parapsychical investigators, the TARDIS team are shown the mysterious ‘ghost catcher’ device that’s made the whole scheme possible. But it can’t really be catching ghosts, can it? What’s really happening in Hellwood?
14.2 The Memory Thieves by Phil Mulryne (2 parts)
The colony world of New Pasithea was peaceful for many years. But strange electric pulses started to be detected in its forests… and then they started to get stronger… and then people lost their memories…
The Doctor and Leela land in a community in turmoil, doomed to insanity by the mysterious ‘Abeyance’ unless the TARDIS crew can save them.
But with reports of monsters being seen in the locality, this may prove harder than expected.
Can they rescue the minds of the colonists? Or will they forget what they have to do…
A King lies dying in his castle. His eldest son Prince Sylvan is an artist with no desire to inherit a kingdom, while Prince Dega toils in his laboratory, dedicated to saving their dying people from extinction. They will all burn unless he succeeds.
When the TARDIS arrives, its crew believe they can help. But this planet is Mondas. And this is the Genesis of the Cybermen…
In Victorian England, the Great Detective, Madame Vastra, her resourceful spouse, Jenny Flint, and their loyal valet, Strax, solve conundrums, fight injustice and capture criminals – but a shapeshifting enemy is moving against them…
Hunting down their foe amid London society, Vastra is driven to distraction, and the Gang ousted from their home – before a final confrontation!
2.10 I Married a Shapeshifter by Alan Ronald
The Gang visit an old friend in a haunted mansion. Miss Faversham is suffering a mysterious malady, and her engagement to the curious Lord Briar convinces Vastra she can scent the enemy…
As Jenny helps supernatural investigator Harriet Cross catch a ghost, they discover something far more dangerous loose inside the walls of Briar Hall.
2.11 A Passion for Fashion by Helen Goldwyn
Society ladies are losing their fortunes and growing mortally sick – apparently infected by insatiable desire for the designs of enigmatic hat-maker, Monsieur Declerq.
With the help of a shop-girl, the Gang uncover rivalry in the fashion world and a dark trade in cruel importation. They also find that Monsieur Declerq is much more than a flamboyant fashionista.
2.12 The Final Poblom by Lauren Mooney & Stewart Pringle
The villainous trespasser has finally succeeded in banishing the Paternosters from their home, using the most powerful weapon in his arsenal: the bailiffs.
Stuck in a seedy boarding house, the Gang soon realise something else is afoot. Things are going missing. Something is munching its way through London, and it may be the answer to all their problems…
1901. Six months after the death of Queen Victoria, her gung-ho daughter Princess Beatrice goes to visit the organisation she’s inherited. What is Torchwood?
Meanwhile, something has broken out of a vault deep beneath London. The Smiling Man is coming.
Maureen O’Brien reads this thrilling adventure for the First Doctor, Steven and Vicki as they once again face the Daleks.
On a radioactive moon on the outskirts of the Fourth Sector, the occupants of a besieged power station try desperately to hold the Daleks at bay. To this end they have apprehended a saboteur, spy, and traitor to the human race. His name is Steven Taylor. When The Doctor, Vicki and Steven first landed on the station, they little suspected the chain of events that would lead to Steven’s arrest. Now he must convince a young nurse, Chayla, and the station’s brutal Security Chief, Finn, that his intentions are honourable. But with every second wasted, the Daleks are gaining ground. With The Doctor and Vicki seemingly powerless in the TARDIS, Steven must prove once and for all that he is not an agent of the Daleks. Can anything be done to prevent The Doctor’s old enemies totally exterminating everyone on the station?
Maureen O’Brien, who played Vicki in the BBC TV series, reads this brand new story from Steve Lyons, whilst Nicholas Briggs supplies the authentic voices of the Daleks.
The Doctor wouldn’t be half the Time Lord they are, without some assistance. But how much do you know about the people who played the companions?
This book is the first of its kind. It’s your comprehensive guide to the actors who have played Doctor Who companions over the years.
Inside, you will find biographies of every companion actor who has been in Doctor Who. There are complete chronologies of companion arrivals and departures through the show’s history, enriched with original interviews with some of the cast.
As an encyclopaedia, it is packed with dates, details and knowledge, a valuable reference source for any Doctor Who fan.
As a guide, this book also offers a personal perspective on the show and explores what these talented, hard-working professionals brought to the show. The author traces its origins in 1963, through the ensuing decades, and takes you right up to the most recent serials.
Doctor Who: An Encyclopaedia of Companion Actors is a testament to the actors and a meticulously-crafted love-letter to the show.
One of the most iconic creations to come out of the BBC’s cult television show Doctor Who is the Dalek. Its deceptively simple shape, movement and voice have beguiled fans since the very start, and it wasn’t long before the merchandisers came on board and started to produce Dalek toys in a variety of shapes and sizes, and with variable features and functions from push and go, to voice activated.
Dalek enthusiast Alex Storer takes us on a fan and collector’s journey through the multitude of Dalek toys which have been produced over the years. From the early days of Louis Marx and Selcol in the 1960s, to the modern Character Options variants, every type of toy Dalek is pictured and discussed. This is not an exhaustive catalogue or a guidebook, but an enthusiastic and appreciative love letter to the toy Dalek, explaining the challenges and elements of their construction, and how these changed as technology grew more sophisticated.
With interviews and input from many of those who were involved in the creation, design, manufacture and marketing of the toys, this book is a gloriously designed and illustrated celebration of the Dalek in miniature form.
