The Dying Light, by Nick Wallace

Next in the series of Big Finish audios featuring Quadrigger Stoyn, accidentally removed from Gallifrey with the Tardis by the First Doctor and here encountering the Second Doctor and Zoe. Unfortunately a story that didn't quite fulfill its promise - it's almost all Frazer Hines as Jamie v Terry Molloy as Stoyn, with Wendy Padbury as Zoe being allowed a few lines here and there; also I would have liked a bit more to be made of Stoyn's threat to reveal the Doctor to the Time Lords, since the story is set just before The War Games when the Doctor actually did reveal himself. But the central performances are delightful.
