Night of the Whisper (Destiny of the Doctor 9)
Night of the Whisper (Destiny of the Doctor 9)
New Vegas, 23rd Century – a sprawling city huddling beneath an artificial atmospheric bubble on a distant moon. Pleasure seekers flock there from every corner of the galaxy, to take in the shows and play the tables in the huge casinos. But beneath the glitz and the glitter, organised crime rules the streets.
Whilst Rose Tyler works as a waitress in the Full Moon nightclub, Jack Harkness poses as a reporter for the Daily Galax. Meanwhile, the Doctor is helping the police department with their investigation into The Whisper, a strange vigilante that has been terrorising the city’s underworld. But the Doctor is also on a mission of his own – to save Police Chief McBain’s life at all costs.

July 26th, 2013 - 3:03amLike the noir/crime riff. Would have loved to actually see this made into a proper TV episode. The 9th Doctor would look good in noir styled stories with his black jacket.

July 25th, 2013 - 7:53pmI was expecting the cover to have Rose and Jack on, like the other covers which had The Doctor and the Companion included in the story

July 25th, 2013 - 4:44pmIs Rose in this one? And when is it set?
DoctorArkham
July 25th, 2013 - 5:26pmYes, it says Rose will be posing as a waitress. Captain Jack is also in it which suggests it takes place between the events of The Doctor Dances and Bad Wolf.

July 25th, 2013 - 3:45pmI find this release really odd. Christopher Eccleston is the hardest of the living Doctors to get hold of, but his companions are some of the easiest actors… BARROWMAN would jump at the chance surely!?
I think it ruins the range every so slightly, being the only one without a companion reader. They’ve not even bothered to put a companion on the front cover, despite Rose and Jack being in the audio!

July 25th, 2013 - 6:43pmYeah, it is disappointing. I would have loved to hear Billie or John reading this story. It really is the odd-one-out, since Catherine Tate and Jenna Coleman will be taking part in the final two.

DOCTOR WHO ONE

Scott
July 25th, 2013 - 6:35pmClearly they tried to make it sound less predictable, it didnt work
MAXP
July 26th, 2013 - 3:04amCould be a typo?

July 25th, 2013 - 1:33pmI agree with Scott it makes him least popular

July 25th, 2013 - 1:25pmThese look so cool, wish I had started collecting them 😥 Has anyone here been collecting them?
Trenzalore
July 25th, 2013 - 1:26pmAlso in the background of the pic, is that the Shard (building)?

July 25th, 2013 - 2:33pmThe first three are very good and faithful to their eras, but I’m gonna wait for the complete box set to come out after they’ve all been released and get that.
Trenzalore
July 25th, 2013 - 2:46pmOoh, didn’t know there was going to be a box set with them all in, might get it.
Fezmeister
July 25th, 2013 - 6:39pmI’ll be holding out for the box-set, too. I can wait a few months.
Scott
July 25th, 2013 - 1:21pmMight get this love the ninth doctor but hardly anything is released around his doctor

The lad
July 25th, 2013 - 12:55pmLooks great, pity Billie didn’t read it though, Tate is reading 10’s.
Also, wasn’t ‘New Vegas’ mentioned at the recent DW Proms?!
The lad
July 25th, 2013 - 12:58pmAlthough to be fair, it looks as though its set before ‘Rose’.
The lad
July 25th, 2013 - 12:59pmOh wait it isnt.
*blushes*

July 25th, 2013 - 8:24pmThat was Space Vegas.

July 25th, 2013 - 9:08pmThey should have put Jack and Rose on the cover
