With his old army colleague from UNIT- the retired Captain Mike Yates- to help him, the Doctor is hot on the trail of a malignant psychic race of alien Hornet’s. After having already traced their history back to 1832, the Doctor now discovers that their initial infestation actually dates back all the way to 1039.

Keen to find out more, the Doctor boldly arrives at a nunnery in Northumbria during the Dark Ages, where wild dogs salivate over the scent of his anticipated flesh. He is kindly given shelter by three nuns, but all is not as it seems. Before he even has a chance to hunt down his enemy, they find him, chasing him through the twisting corridors of his own ship, with the sinister intent to drive him away… into the realms of madness.

A Sting In The Tale is the gripping penultimate episode of Paul Magrs’ brand new five-part Doctor Who audio series- Hornet’s Nest. This exclusive production stars Tom Baker in his old role as the Fourth Doctor, alongside Richard Franklin as Captain Mike Yates and Rula Lenska as The Swarm.

All titles in the Hornet’s Nest series are available for you to collect as audiobooks on CD or MP3.
