Available for pre-order now and arriving this June is Doctor Who – The Fourth Doctor Adventures: The Ruins of Kaerula, a new audio adventure from Big Finish Productions. This brand-new box set will see the beloved Brigadier join the Fourth Doctor, Leela and K9 to help sort out more unearthly goings on.
Time travel can often bring complications and in this new box set, the Fourth Doctor, Leela and K9 find themselves at different ends of some strange temporal effects. The box set’s third story has the TARDIS crew respond to a space-time telegraph summons from Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart. This adventure takes them from a World Peace Conference in Geneva to a space station in the thirtieth century to contend with a fearsome banshee.
The Ruins of Kaerula features three stories set in the Fourth Doctor era, these are – The Remains of Kaerula by Phil Mulryne, The Ruins of Kaerula by Phil Mulryne and Cry of the Banshee by Tim Foley.
Tom Baker reprises his role as the Fourth Doctor, as does Louise Jameson as Leela and John Leeson as K9. Joining them is Jon Culshaw as the Doctor’s old comrade, the Brigadier.
Jon Culshaw said: “The Fourth Doctor and Leela’s era had a wonderful gothic quality about it, a Hammer Horror sense, with Leela being a hero – there was never a companion like Leela with that fire of a warrior. With the joys of Big Finish, we have these well-loved characters who didn’t meet in the TV programme, but they do now. It’s lovely to play the Brigadier with Leela. He would have really
admired her warrior spirit.”
Doctor Who – The Fourth Doctor Adventures: The Ruins of Kaerula is available to pre-order now from the Big Finish website for £19.99 for the download or £24.99 for the limited edition CD Box Set and download. Bundles with other Fourth Doctor Adventures are available.
