'Hello, sweetie!' Melody Pond, Melody Malone, River Song...She has
had many names. Whoever she really is, this archaeologist and time
traveller has had more adventures (and got into more trouble) than
most people in the universe. And she's written a lot of it down.
Well, when you're married to a Time Lord (or possibly not), you
have to keep track of what you did and when. Especially as it may
not actually have happened to both of you yet. These are just a few
of River Song's exploits, extracted from her journals. Sometimes,
she is with the Doctor. Sometimes she's on her own. But wherever
and whenever she may be, she is never far from danger and
excitement. This is just a tiny portion of her impossible life. But
it will reveal more than you've ever known about the legend that is
River Song.

luring them to the dreaded thirteenth floor. But this power has
started to corrupt Sam, surprising even Max - and their activities
have not gone unnoticed, as WPC Hester Benedict becomes more aware
of the sinister events taking place at the building. The breakout
star of legendary British comic Scream! Max and his thirteenth
floor are back in a brand-new story written by Guy Adams (Heavens
Gate) and includes art by Frazer Irving (Batman and Robin), John
Stokes (Star Wars), Tom Paterson (Sweeny Toddler), Kelley Jones
(The Sandman), VV Glass (Dr Who) and Vince Locke (A History of

Labeling a person, institution or particular behavior as "corrupt"
signals both political and moral disapproval and, in a functioning
democracy, should stimulate inquiry, discussion, and, if the charge
is well-founded, reform. This book argues, in a set of closely
related chapters, that the political community and scholars alike
have underestimated the extent of corruption in the United States
and elsewhere and thus, awareness of wrong-doing is limited and
discussion of necessary reform is stunted. In fact, there is a
class of behaviors and institutions that are legal, but corrupt.
They are accepted as legitimate by statute and practice, but they
inflict very real social, economic, and political damage. This book
explains why it is important to identify legally accepted
corruption and provides a series of examples of corruption using
this perspective.

One day every hundred years, a town appears, its location and
character different every time. It is home to the greatest miracle
a man could imagine: a doorway to Heaven itself. The town’s name
is Wormwood, and it is due to appear on the 21st September 1889,
somewhere in the American Midwest. There are many who hope to be
there: travelling preacher Obeisance Hicks and his simple messiah,
Soldier Joe; Henry and Harmonium Jones and their freak show pack of
outlaws; the Brothers of the Order of Ruth and their sponsor Lord
Forset (inventor of the Forset Thunderpack and other incendiary
modes of personal transport); and finally, an aging gunslinger with
a dark history. They will face dangers both strange and terrible:
monstrous animals, predatory towns, armies of mechanical natives,
and other things besides. Wormwood defends its secrets, and only
the brave and resourceful will survive...

Inspired by Oscar Wilde's classic story of hedonism and corruption,
The Confessions of Dorian Gray imagines a world where Dorian Gray
was real, and his friendship with Oscar Wilde once spawned the
notorious novel. Starring Alexander Vlahos as Dorian Gray, this
fifth and final series comprises four hour-long episodes, reuniting
Dorian with a host of familiar friends from throughout his extended
lifetime. 1. One Must Not Look At Mirrors by Guy Adams. London,
1888. When Oscar Wilde befriends a young man by the name of Dorian
Gray, he finds himself immersed in a world devoid of morals. But as
a celebrated killer stalks the streets, and he struggles to come to
terms with inhuman actions, can he find any humanity in Dorian...?
2. Angel of War by Roy Gill. France, 1915. In the trenches of the
Great War, Lieutenant Dorian Gray reports to Captain James
Anderson, shortly before a routine mission into No Man's Land. His
comrades rely on their faith to get them through - but is there any
truth behind the story of the legendary Angel of Mons...? 3. The
Valley of Nightmares by David Llewellyn. Los Angeles, 1948.Reunited
in the heart of the Hollywood Hills, Dorian Gray and Dorothy Parker
quickly find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy that takes them
behind-the-scenes of the region's booming movie industry. But how
much of it is an act...? 4. Ever After by Scott Handcock. London,
2016. The end. This is the last in the series of hugely popular
adventures based on the premise, "what if Oscar Wilde's character
Dorian Gray was real?" The adventures span the decades as an
immortal man lives through the years and encounters some of the
darkness therein...Star Alexander Vlahos has not only played Dorian
across five series for Big Finish, and in several spin-offs, but
may also be recognised from BBC TV's Saturday night hit Merlin, or
his role in Kenneth Branagh's Macbeth on stage. This collection
includes a bonus disc of behind-the-scenes interviews with cast and

role of Ursa in Superman II (1980) Note: The Confessions of Dorian

half-way between an Abbot and a warlord. They discover that they
are in 'Urth', a barbaric place clinging on to its former glory.
It's somewhere its populace are never allowed to leave, somewhere
keeping many secrets from its people. And today those secrets will
be revealed...5.2 The Hollow Crown by Sarah Grochala. When the
TARDIS lands in Shoreditch, 1601, the Doctor suggests going to see
a play at the Globe Theatre and his friends readily agree. But this
is a turbulent time. There is violence in the streets, plots
against the Queen, and rebellion is in the air. At the centre of it

to become remarkably successful in a remarkably short amount of
time. So what’s their secret? The Doctor and Leela are about to
find out. The Usurians have come to Earth. And they have big plans.
The Day of the Comet by Jonathan Morris. The TARDIS brings the
Doctor and Leela to the ruins of a once-great city racked by
earthquakes, where they find a giant rocket on the side of a
mountain. The planet is due to be destroyed by a comet in a
year’s time and this ship is the only way off world. But is
everything quite as it seems? At least one person in the city
thinks the comet is going to come to obliterate the planet much
sooner than people believe. Which would be bad enough – if there
wasn’t a far worse secret hidden behind the scenes. CAST: : Tom

Max and Tom are old, old friends, who used to be actors. Tom now
owns a jazz nightclub called Deadbeat which, as well as being their
source of income, is also something of an in-joke. In a churchyard
one night they see men loading a coffin into the back of a van.
But, why take a full coffin away from a graveyard and, more
importantly, why is the occupant still breathing? Tom and Max are
on the case.
