Luckily as I sat around contemplating the meaning of Michelin and Goodyear, I had with me David Tennant's recorded voice, reading James Goss's excellent Doctor Who novel, Dead Air, which took me from that Belgian industrial suburb to a pirate radio ship off the southern coast of England in 1966, where the Doctor is dealing with a mysterious entity called the Hush, which exists as an organism based on sound alone; it absorbs its victims and turns them into sound patterns - if they are lucky. It is tremendously creepy and enjoyable, and Dark Hints are dropped which one can interpret as tying into the Tenth Doctor's final story; also Tennant is an excellent reader - the whole thing is done in character as a first-person narrative from the Doctor's point of view, but he conveys the other characters very convincingly too. This is very strongly recommended.
