Publisher's summary

Patrick Troughton witnesses 'the final end' of the Daleks in this exclusive recording of a classic 'lost' BBC television adventure, with linking narration by Frazer Hines.

The TARDIS has been stolen from Gatwick Airport, and the Doctor and Jamie are hot on its trail. A series of cryptic clues lead them to an antiques shop owned by Edward Waterfield, and there it becomes clear that an elaborate trap has been laid for them; but by whom, and for what purpose? Only a journey back in time to the 1860s will reveal the answer...

The Daleks are in search of the Human Factor, something which they believe will help their quest for universal domination. In order to achieve their aim they need the Doctor's help, and the use of his TARDIS.

The Daleks' plan has far-reaching consequences, leading to conflict and destruction of astonishing proportions.

Frazer Hines, who plays Jamie in the story, narrates this classic story from 1967, of which all but one episode is now missing from the television archives.

Starts interesting, gets tedious

This one has several layers of indirection and so many irrelevant characters and subplots that I actually forgot one until I went to write this review. By the end, I was slogging through it more out of a desire for completeness than an interest in the story. It felt like there were no real stakes and the characters weren't really engaging, not even the Doctor and Jamie. Try it if you like, but don't blame me if you end up tearing your hair out in frustration.

Is it the end of the Daleks?

Of course not. They will return to menace more Doctors in the future. This was a classic story. Great action and suspense. The Doctor gets a new companion Victoria Waterfield. This was a great Dalek story. The Doctor gives them a bad beating. Great stuff.

Not an audio of the novel

I should have paid closer attention to the readers as it gives the hint that this is not an audio of the novel but the audio from the original broadcast with some linking narration. The linking narration helps, but the book version would make it much easier to follo w and get into the story
