Gallifrey
IV
|
 Five years after the last instalment of Gallifrey audio
adventures, Big Finish Productions have announced that the
series will be returning for a new four-part mini-series,
picking up where the climactic events of series three left
off.
Recording on the first two stories was completed in early
September, and saw Lalla Ward and Louise Jameson
reunited as The Doctor's former travelling
companions Romana and Leela. Also returning are Miles Richardson
as Irving Braxiatel, Sean Carlsen as Co-ordinator
Narvin and John Leeson as K9.
The series opens with "Gallifrey Reborn" by Gary
Hopkins, which sees Gallifrey on
the brink of an all-consuming war
across the cosmos. Justin Richards
then picks up the adventure in "Gallifrey
Disassembled", where Romana
and her companions find themselves
on the run from the High Council's
temporal assassins, with only an
old friend able to protect them.
Next up is "Gallifrey Annihilation" by Scott Handcock
and Gary Russell, where Romana
and Leela find themselves plunged
into an age-old war between the
True Lords of Gallifrey and their
Ancient Enemy. The series then
concludes with "Gallifrey
Eternal" by Emmy Award-winning
screenwriter David Wise, which
poses our heroes with an impossible
sacrifice as their stories come
to an unexpected conclusion.
Cast members for the series include Sarah Douglas, Brian
Miller, Mary Tamm and Colin Baker,
who makes a special guest appearance
as the Doctor.
Gallifrey IV is scheduled for release in March
2011, in a lavish five-disc box set. |
