I was checking out the Nerdist website on lunch today and found out this awesome news:
Big Finish, the people who do the range of Doctor Who audio plays featuring five of the previous Doctors and a slew of old companions, have announced
that they will be celebrating the show’s 50th Anniversary with a
100-minute, multi-Doctor extravaganza entitled “The Light at the End,”
which will feature Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester
McCoy, and Paul McGann (the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth
Doctors, respectively) teaming up to fight everybody’s favorite jerk,
the Master, played by Geoffrey Beevers, who portrayed the evil Time Lord
in 1981′s “The Keeper of Traken.”
To help, each Doctor will also have a companion; Leela (Louise
Jameson), Nyssa (Sarah Sutton), Peri (Nicola Bryant), Ace (Sophie
Aldred), and Charley Pollard (India Fisher).
Here’s a blurb from the press released from Big Finish.com:
“We wanted to do a proper, fully-fledged multi-Doctor story for
this very special occasion,” says writer, director and executive
producer Nicholas Briggs, “and it’s wonderful that all the surviving
Doctors threw themselves behind the project so enthusiastically. That’s
not to say the first three Doctors don’t appear – we wanted to pay
homage to the whole history of the classic series.”
