There’s something in the water at Lewgate Docks. Something strange, and green, and deadly. Summoned to the North of England by a mystery informer, the Brigadier finds his investigations hampered at every turn by the local police. Just what are they trying to hide?

While the Doctor uncovers sinister goings-on in the city morgue, Liz attracts the attention of something unearthly. But with Time running out, quite literally, the Doctor, Liz and UNIT aren’t the only ones to find themselves targeted by a world-shattering alien menace…

...because they’ve got a previous Doctor and his best friend Jamie in their sights, too!

Reviews

...it’s a love letter to Season 7 and a great example of why longer Doctor Who stories are some of the best, as they have enough time to flesh out the plot and characters with a stellar cast and Nicholas Briggs once again taking control to make it a labor of love to the era. 9/10
Indie Mac User

From its script and performances to the sound design and music, The Annihilators is nothing short of a pitch-perfect pastiche of one of Doctor Who's greatest seasons. One that offers hints of the Third Doctor's future at Big Finish and of his predecessor, as well. If this is any indication, listeners are in for some interesting adventures in the years to come.
Warped Factor

There’s a hint of The Avengers and Ealing comedies in this and I’m all for it. There’s life in the Third Doctor and it’s coming right at you, watch out for Bessie’s self-driving function. You might want to ‘RUN’!
SF Crowsnest

Nicholas Briggs’s script is pacy, gripping and intriguing. This, combined with the stellar efforts of the entire cast, makes The Annihilators one of the strongest releases of 2022 so far.
Who Review

From the opening titles to the barnstorming cliffhangers, The Annihilators delivers a superb sense of the 1970 series born of obvious love and affection.
