‘Tales From The TARDIS’ Review – ‘Stop the Pigeon’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Let’s check out the eleventh and penultimate story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection of ‘Doctor Who’ audio stories called ‘Stop the Pigeon’ by Robert Perry and Mike Tucker. The story features the Seventh Doctor and Ace. It also features the Tremas Master, as played by Anthony Ainley, as well as a Krynoid and a talking pigeon. 😀 The story is read by Sophie Aldred, who plays Ace in the ‘Doctor Who’ TV series and the Big Finish audios. As well as the eleventh story in the ‘Tales From The TARDIS: Volume One’ collection, it’s the fifth story in the ‘Short Trips’ audio anthology produced by the BBC. It’s also the fifth story in the ‘Short Trips’ 1998 book collection by the BBC, which I reviewed in my ‘Nyssa Challenge’ mini-review season for Easter from March to April 2024. Apparently, the prose version of ‘Stop the Pigeon’ is longer than the audio version of the story. 😀 Continue reading
