'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.

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...

off the greatest heist of his criminal career. Though could the

German lines at the height of the First World War the Doctor finds

else. Something causing vivid nightmares that chill the blood.
Something not of this place. Things are not quiet on the Western
Front. 11.5 Peake Season by Lizbeth Myles (2 parts). After an
embarrassing encounter, the Doctor tries to make amends to Mervyn
Peake by offering him a trip in the TARDIS. It's a trip the famous

Gwen Cooper and Rhys Williams are on the run from a cataclysm.
They're the only survivors - But there's something in the car with
them. The huge and long-running public interest in new Torchwood
adventures resulted in a server melt-down when its return on audio
was announced by star John Barrowman on his Sunday night radio
slot. Across the range, John Barrowman, Eve Myles, Kai Owen and
Gareth David-Lloyd have reprised the characters who starred in four
years of hit Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood, screened around the
world -Gareth David-Lloyd played Ianto Jones in the BBC series, a
character so popular with fans that when he was killed off, a
shrine was created in Cardiff that is still there to this day! Star
Eve Myles has been seen on TV most recently in ITV's massive hits
Victoria and Broadchurch. Writer Guy Adams is a prolific script
writer for Big Finish, but as a novelist has been responsible for
works within the universes of Torchwood, Class, Sherlock Holmes,
Life on Mars as well as a number of his own books. CAST: Eve Myles
(Gwen Cooper),Kai Owen (Rhys Williams). NOTE: Torchwood contains
adult material and may not be suitable for younger listeners.
