' Even Time Lords die... '

When a dissident Time Lord group inadvertently caused the destruction of an entire civilisation through interference, its members vowed to repent by serving the Universe not as gods of Time but as mere men. Many years later, this peaceful resolve is severely tested when two of their number are killed — and the Doctor's seventh incarnation becomes embroiled in the struggle against the apparently unstoppable General Tannis.

Plagued by ominous portents, the Doctor and his companion Antimony must race across the Universe, taking in the Santine Republic, the Great Orion Nebula and the frozen heart of the Canisian Empire, Meanwhile the mysterious Minister of Chance battles his own inner demons, and former Tardis traveller Ace finds herself in training for a destiny she never dreamed possible. Matters reach a terrible climax when Tannis' next target for subjugation is identified. Exactly how much is the Doctor prepared to sacrifice in order to save Earth?

First webcast on BBCi and also featuring Sophie Aldred, Anthony Stewart Head and Jacqueline Pearce . Death Comes to Time is an original audio adventure uniting elements from the Doctor's past with bold and original ideas for his future.

"A masterwork of irony that contains both a dark and bitter meaning and
a joyous, extraordinary creativity of imagination. That's why it has lived for so long."
Malcom Bradbury

Gulliver's Travels tells of the fantastic voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, an Englishman
and ship's surgeon, who travels to the "several remote nations of the world." In the beginning,
he becomes shipwrecked in the land of Lilliput, where the distressed inhabitants are only six
inches tall. His second voyage takes him to Brobdingnag, where lives a race of giants. At
Glubdubdrib, the Island of Sorcerers, he speaks with great men of the past and learns from
them the lies of history. Further adventures find Gulliver in a land ruled by intelligent horses.

For children, it is an enchanting fantasy; for adults, it is a satirical masterpiece, a parody of
political life in Swift's time, and a scathing send-up of manners and morals in
eighteenth-century England.
