The Resurrection Plant
The Resurrection Plant
Note: Original Doctor Who audio reading featuring the Second Doctor, Jamie and Zoe.
Cover blurb:
Frazer Hines reads a brand new story featuring the Second Doctor, Jamie and Zoe.
The TARDIS brings its occupants to Calico Three, an Earth-like planetoid where industrial foundries are worked alongside sophisticated technology. The Doctor is staggered to learn about the Resurrection Plant, which re-births anyone mortally wounded in the line of work.
While Jamie is put to work in the foundry, Zoe and the Doctor investigate the Plant – but when the machine goes terribly wrong, they must work with the locals to combat a horrifying monster. The Doctor also uncovers a shameful secret that, for him at least, hits close to home.
Frazer Hines, who played Jamie in the TV series, reads Will Hadcroft’s intriguing adventure.
Listen to a sample:
The Doctor shows Zoe the Sonic Screwdriver for the first time, explaining what it is. Jamie is only vaguely familiar with it, and refers to it as a “magic wand”.
Ren and the Regent are Time Lords, and are forbidden from interfering in the development of other species.
The Doctor explains that the Regent can only regenerate twelve times.
Jamie mentions that Polly told him The Doctor used to look like an “old man with white hair”.
