Following a spot of uncharacteristic intoxication, the Doctor wakes to discover that the TARDIS has materialised in the service ducting of the Vipod Mor, a huge craft which is itself floating in deep space. Furthermore, the console has detected Time spillage: someone or something is tampering with Time! Such experimentation could not only damage the Space/Time continuum but destroy the past and future history of the Universe. The Doctor and Peri board the craft to investigate.

Well written - well played - Original
If you could sum up Doctor Who in three words, what would they be?
Fun, intriguing
Would you recommend Doctor Who to your friends? Why or why not?
Good series - very like the TV shows each episode is well contained, completely different, but the linking plot kept me wanting to come back for the next episode...
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No - can listen to these on the train and look forward to completing the story on the way home

Pure padding
Honestly, this whole series could have been compacted down into 2 hours--maybe 3--and been all the better for it. The writing is excessively passive and the 'action' very slow. It doesn't even feel like Doctor Who aside for a few side references.
