When a dead body is found on the Circle Line on London’s Underground, it seems as if this could just be another death that the metropolis has seen another subject pass untimely away into the arms of Lady Morpheus’ elder sister Death.  Nothing that should concern two of London’s eminent amateur detectives, nothing out of the ordinary to vex the brain power of Professor Litefoot and his friend with the knack of finding himself either in debt to theatre productions or flustered with his use of alliteration which he uses to great and stunning effect.

It is perhaps fitting that some of the older foes from the classic series of Doctor Who make their way into the Big Finish roster, especially as the parent television programmes gears up for what is fast becoming a very special 50th anniversary but some monsters and villains having been used once during the 70s and 80s should be left where the memory of their time on screen can be quietly and easily forgotten and the relation to the programme left to slivers of reminiscence when the mood descends. Such is the fate of the latest release Eldrad Must Die!
