Let the Daleks hold you captive!

This December, AudioGO have six exciting Doctor Who adventures available for the first time as audio downloads read by a host of famous stars including Peter Purves and William Russell with Nick Briggs as the terrifying voice of the Daleks.

Doctor Who and the Daleks

The mysterious Doctor and his granddaughter Susan are joined by unwilling adventurers Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright in an epic struggle for survival on an alien planet.

In a vast metal city they discover the survivors of a terrible nuclear war – the Daleks. Held captive in the deepest levels of the city, can the Doctor and his new companions stop the Daleks’ plan to totally exterminate their mortal enemies, the peace-loving Thals? More importantly, even if they can escape from the Daleks, will Ian and Barbara ever see their home planet Earth again?

This novelization is based on the second Doctor Who story which was originally broadcast from 21 December 1963-1 February 1964. Featuring the First Doctor as played by William Hartnell, and his companions Susan, Ian and Barbara.

Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth

The TARDIS lands in London – a holocaust city of fear and devastation… a city now ruled by Daleks.

The Doctor and his companions join a handful of survivors, underground resistance workers. Together they launch an unsuccessful attack on the Dalek spaceship. Forced to flee the city they find themselves on a perilous journey through England until they reach the secret centre of Dalek operations… and the mysterious reason for the Dalek invasion of Earth!

William Russell, who played the Doctor’s companion Ian in the original TV serial, reads Terrance Dicks’ complete and unabridged novelisation, with specially composed music and sound and Dalek voices by Nicholas Briggs.

Using a Space-Time Visualiser, the Doctor and his companions discover the Dalek’s plan. On the barren planet Aridius they elude the Daleks and escape in the TARDIS. An epic journey through time and space ensues as they try to shake off their pursuers. But Daleks never give up easily, and the hunt becomes a chase to the death….
