Big Finish Doctor Who Stranded 2

2020 is not treating the Eighth Doctor well.

Marooned in the UK, stuck in one house, isolated from his TARDIS… but now he rediscovers adventure in a brand-new full-cast audio box set.

The TARDIS is still stranded –but the healing process has begun. After living in Baker Street for months, the Doctor, Liv and Helen find their new friends becoming curious about who they really are. But is it wise to tell them, when their future –and their past –are filled with danger?And in the shadows, the Curator is watching.

Doctor Who: Stranded 2, due for release in March 2021, is now available to pre-order as a collector’s edition CD box set (priced at £24.99), or on download (at £19.99) exclusively from www.bigfinish.com.

Producer David Richardson said: “Things have moved on a little since Stranded 1. The Doctor and his friends are no longer stranded in time –just in space! With the ship able to move backwards and forwards through London history, the Doctor gets to take his extended Baker Street family through their own pasts and futures. And there might just be an Ogron on the way…”

Paul McGann returns as the Doctor, forced to live in domestic bliss with his friends, played by Nicola Walker (Liv Chenka) and Hattie Morahan (Helen Sinclair). Joining them for four superb stories set in swinging London are Rebecca Root (Tania Bell), Tom Price (Sergeant Andy Davidson), Clive Wood (Mr Bird), Tom Baker (the Curator) and Jon Culshaw (Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart).
