About this listen

When a naval cruiser sinks in mysterious circumstances in the North Sea, all aboard are lost. Rose is saddened to learn that the brother of her friend, Keisha, was among the dead. But then he appears to them as a ghostly apparition, begging to be saved from the coming feast... the feast of the drowned. As the dead crew haunt loved ones all over London, the Doctor and Rose are drawn into a chilling mystery. What sank the ship, and why? When the cruiser’s wreckage was towed up the Thames, what sinister force came with it? The river’s dark waters are hiding an even darker secret, as preparations for the feast near their conclusion... Read by the Tenth Doctor himself, this exciting adventure features the Doctor and Rose, as played by David Tennant and Billie Piper in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television. Also included is an exclusive bonus interview with the author, Stephen Cole, compiled by David Darlington of Doctor Who Magazine.©2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd (P)2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Adventure Entertainment & Performing Arts Radio Science Fiction Time Travel

Featured Article: 30+ of the Best Doctor Who Quotes in All of Time and Space


One of television’s most beloved and enduring sci-fi shows, Doctor Who has been on our screens for as long as many of us can remember. What started as a two-hearted alien traversing the galaxy in a time machine disguised as a police box quickly turned into a global cultural phenomenon. 13 regenerations later, the Whoniverse is still going strong—with 38 seasons on the air and an extensive library of supporting literary listens. Allons-y!

Would you consider the audio edition of Doctor Who to be better than the print version?

I have never read the print version

Who was your favorite character and why?

Love the accent. Good acting.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this but at times I found it hard to follow who was were and what they were doing. On a couple of occasions I had to back it up to get my bearings.

Dr WHO--WHAT??

I really wish that this one had been an episode of the show, it's really that good! The story was compelling and just the right amount of creepy for me, as someone afraid of the water--if you liked The Waters of Mars episode, there's a similar feeling to this story.
David Tennant's narration was spot-on, obviously as The Doctor, but all characters were brilliantly voiced, my favorite being Crenshaw...so delightfully unnerving!
Final words: give it a go, it's so worth it if you loved Ten!

My first Doctor Who audio adventure, but definitely not my last!

David Tennant is a fantastic narrator and brings to life not just The Doctor but all the characters from Rose to the villains. There were some great action moments. Overall I enjoyed the story as a fan of Doctor Who even with a few moments where I thought the plot and characterisations weren't completely consistent within the story.

David Tennant brings this story to life

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I have yet to listen to a Doctor Who novel that was worth my time, and yet I keep trying. I love the television show and keep hoping to find an audio book that captures that same magic. This one did not though it might have been a half-decent tv script.

But at least I got to listen to David Tennant.

Not as good as the show

Had a long drive. But David Tennant as the The Doctor keep me from loading my mind.

Awesome. ..

The story involved the Doctor, Rose, Mickey and friends of Rose - and I don't think the Tardis figured in at all. Everything happened here on earth but wasn't entirely earthly to be sure. I can't say I *liked* the storyline, it was creepy and I'm not a fan of the creepies to be honest. What I am a fan of is David Tennant as the Doctor. His voice acting was so fantastic that I had to keep reminding myself that all the voices were really all one person - his Mikey was so well done I kept wondering who the actor doing Mikey was! 100 stars for the narration, and 3 stars for the story. Nothing wrong with the story other than it kind of creeped me out. Other people may think that by itself is worth a couple dozen stars, so consider your own preferences, please!

Strange and different, not a clone of the TV show

Standard Doctor Who fun. A great escape for after a more intense book. Love hearing David Tennant.

Good escapism

You just can't go wrong with a ghost story, especially when it envolves Tennant's Doctor, Rose, and Mickey!

Even if you've read the book, listen to this anyway. As usual, David Tennant's enthusiasm really makes this audio (and his immitation of Mickey is right on!). It's great just to listen to him read this story as a Doctor Who fan.

Highly Recommended!

A great ghost story!

What made the experience of listening to Doctor Who the most enjoyable?

The most? David Tennant's version of an American admiral from Virginia

What other book might you compare Doctor Who to and why?

Really it's comparable to an episode of the series and was great!

What about David Tennant’s performance did you like?

Everything, he's amazing.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Oh we laughed so much!

Great Story

Would you listen to Doctor Who again? Why?

Absolutely, especially as narrated by The Doctor himself. He nails all the characters, and is as emotive as ever.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

Taken less inspiration from Waters of Mars, one of the more mediocre Doctor stories.

Which scene was your favorite?

When The Doctor blasts through the wall. "Close enough!"

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

It's fluid and cerebral

A Great Return to Tennant
