Tom Baker to Record Two Lost Scripts
Reading time: 1 minute
Fourth Doctor Tom Baker (the greatest and best Doctor) is to record two missing stories for Audio producers Big Finish Productions. Doctor Who - The Lost Stories will take us back to the first season on the Fourth Doctor, screened by the BBC in 1975.
For Baker's debut season, several stories were commissioned including two that were abandoned or changed during the production process. These two missing stories will now be completed in audio format with Tom Baker starring.
Doctor Who and the Ark is adapted from John Lucarotti’s original story of the television serial that became The Ark in Space. The audio recording stars Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor, alongside Elisabeth Sladen's daughter, Sadie Miller, as Sarah Jane Smith and Christopher Naylor as Harry Sullivan.
Adapted by Jonathan Morris from the first draft scripts, this audio production of Doctor Who and the Ark highlights where Robert Holmes polished the storytelling for television, and how the team developed the character of the Doctor.
Daleks! Genesis of Terror features a full-cast episode from Terry Nation’s first draft script and an enhanced dramatic reading of his original storyline for Genesis of the Daleks.
The recording features the same TARDIS team working directly from a PDF of Terry Nation's original script –complete with typos! Also featuring Nation’s initial storyline for all six episodes with additional material by Simon Guerrier, this audio adventure finds the Fourth Doctor and his friends in a Kaled-Thal war being fought by teenagers –but where are all the adults?
