Synopsis

Jamie Glover reads this Beyond the Doctor story featuring Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright.

It's Spring 1965, and at last two time travellers have returned home after many adventures with the Doctor. Yet the world has moved on in their absence, and settling back in proves harder than expected.

For Barbara, salvation appears in the form of kindly Angela Leamann, who offers Miss Wright a roof over her head in return for a series of 'psychical sessions'.

Ian, meanwhile, discovers a hidden talent and joins London's growing literary science fiction scene. He sees no harm in drawing upon his experiences with the Doctor - even when his ideas are picked up by a bigshot in television.

Unsuspectingly, the ex-schoolteachers are being drawn into an invisible web... Jamie Glover, who played William Russell in the BBC TV drama An Adventure in Space and Time, reads this intriguing story by Paul Magrs, author of Doctor Who: The Nest Cottage Adventures.

Goodreads review by Trey on May 09, 2025

This was a really enjoyable story that captured the characters pretty well and engaged with what happened after they returned to Earth. HOWEVER, the reason I picked this up was to get a real ending for Ian and Barbara and find out what happened to them after going home. And while the story engages w......more

A terrific audio adventure featuring Ian and Barbara and what might have happened to them once they returned to Earth after their travels with the Doctor. Excellently read by Jamie Glover, the story does a terrific job of mixing the mundane in with the sci-fi of the Doctor's world. One I really enjoye......more
