Summary

The Chelsea Flower Show - hardly the most exciting or dangerous event in the calendar, or so Doctor thinks. But this is Chelsea 426, a city-sized future colony floating on the clouds of Saturn, and the flowers are much more than they seem.

As the Doctor investigates, a familiar foe arrives, and the stakes suddenly get much higher. The Sontarans have plans of their own, and they're not here to arrange flowers.

Available exclusively on download, look out for The Krillitane Storm and Autonomy with more exclusive unabridged readings to come.

A good Tenth Doctor audiobook

Where does Doctor Who: The Taking of Chelsea 426 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoyed this audiobook. It's always tough to do a story without the companions because the other characters have to be engaging but not replacements for the favourites we love so much. This story manages that well, and the two children in the story fit that role well.

What does Christopher Ryan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

The narrator does a great job at speaking for all the characters we know so well, particularly the Doctor.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
