Doctor Who Slipback 6th Doctor Novelisation Audio CD
Available to order from www.amazon.co.uk
Jon Glover reads this humorous novelisation of an outlandish adventure for the Sixth Doctor and Peri.
The TARDIS materialises aboard the Vipod Mor, a galactic survey ship captained by the repulsive Orlous Moston Slarn.
Things are not going well on board the spacecraft. A mysterious killer stalks the infrastructure, and a junior officer – whose body is four years older than his brain – commands its bridge. The craft’s computer seems to be developing its own distinctive personality, and Slarn threatens to vent his vindictive anger on his crew.
Soon the Doctor and Peri stumble upon a shocking secret, on which depends the fate of the entire Universe…
Reader Jon Glover played Shelligbourne Grant in the original BBC Radio 4 drama on which Eric Saward’s 1986 novelisation is based.
Reading produced by Morrison Ellis
Sound design by Oliver Denman
Executive Producer: Michael Stevens

November 15th, 2025 - 5:23pmI waited so long for his Dalek books…..
35 odd years….and they were such a letdown….
Why couldn’t the fool have stuck to his TV scripts….?
Attack of the Cybermen was excellent….

In some ways, a better cover than the one they used….

November 15th, 2025 - 5:02pmOh now……!
I found it very funny and philosophical……
The Two books he did ruin were Resurrection and Revelation of the Daleks…..

November 15th, 2025 - 5:07pmI think the only he’s done I liked were visitation (no attempt at Douglas Adams humour) and attack of the cybermen, no perfect but I did like it. Everything else is awful especially resurrection
