DOCTOR WHO - THE EARLY ADVENTURES » 4.3. THE MORTON LEGACYTBR November 2017SynopsisWhen the TARDIS lands in London, Ben and Polly are initially delighted to be back home… until they realise that they’re a hundred years too early. But this is nothing next to how the Doctor and Jamie feel when the TARDIS itself vanishes! Their attempts to locate their ship lead them to an antiquarian, Josiah Morton, possessed of a most unusual collection that is currently subjected to a legal dispute. But they’re not the only people interested in him. Dangerous criminals watch from the shadows, waiting for a moment to strike. And the police are calling too – accusing him of murder. An unusual series of deaths have been occurring across the capital, and all signs point to Morton as the culprit. But is he really a killer? Or is there something else at large in the city? Something… alien? Written By: Justin Richards Directed By: Lisa Bowerman CASTAnneke Wills (Polly Wright/Narrator), Frazer Hines (Jamie McCrimmon/The Doctor), Elliot Chapman (Ben Jackson), David Sibley (Josiah Morton) More cast details to be confirmed

I do like a good blurb, and this one sounds like my kind of story from Mr Richards.

Sounds interesting, although I must confess I was hoping for Morton Dill.

I think this is my favorite cover of this batch so far. The picture of Polly on The Night Witches seems a bit too off for me and the picture of Troughton doesn't work as well on The Outliers.

I think for the cover of this one Ben and Polly might have used a touch of sharpening or something? They seem strangely out of focus a bit for being in front of The Doctor, but that's not really much of a complaint. I think this and the one for The Outliers are both fantastic covers. Well done!

Took me a bit to find a quiet moment but I rather enjoyed that - an interesting mystery and a great job by the cast. I continue to be very impressed by Frazer's rendition of The Doctor, and the quality of the Early Adventures range.

Justin Richards standard. Nothing groundbreaking but nothing overly bad either.

Listening to the preview in the podcast... it all sounds a bit, y'know, familar. {Spoiler} Listening to the preview in the podcast... it all sounds a bit, y'know, familar.
The second Doctor and Jamie get stuck when the TARDIS is carted away by a guy from the Victorian era. Where have we heard that before?
