The Visitation
4 CDs/Download - Duration: 3 hours 4 minutes
The Visitation is an unabridged reading of a classic novelisation featuring the Fifth Doctor as played on screen by Peter Davison. Arriving on the outskirts of London in 1666, the Doctor, Tegan, Adric and Nyssa receive a decidedly unfriendly welcome. It soon becomes clear that the sinister activities of other alien visitors have made the villagers extremely suspicious of outsiders. And as a result of the alien Terileptils’ evil schemes, the Doctor finds himself on the point of playing a key role in a gruesome historical event… Matthew Waterhouse, who played Adric in the original TV serial from 1982, reads the story.
