Customer Reviews

Tom Baker, who played the fourth incarnation of the Doctor in the early days of the long running BBC television series, features in this exclusive Doctor Who audio adventure.

The year is 1932. During a summertime visit to Cromer, a seaside English town, the Doctor stumbles upon the Palace of the Curious. It is there that he meets Ernestina Scott, a young girl who seems to be a little more than preoccupied by one of the Palace’s bizarre exhibits.

Before long, she and Doctor find themselves being chased through the sinister model house by living dolls. Strange, perhaps vengeful, forces are at play. Could it be that an old enemy of the Doctor is behind it all? And if so… what other deadly tricks have they got up their sleeve?

The Dead Shoes is the second instalment of a series of five linked Doctor Who stories from the admired author, Paul Magrs.

Starring Tom Baker as the Doctor, Clare Corbett as Ernestina, Richard Franklin as Mike Yates and Susan Jameson as the villainous Mrs Wibbsey, this action packed adventure is now available for Doctor Who fans of all generations to enjoy on CD or MP3 audiobook.
