Ship in a Bottle was the first story in the audio anthology Doom Coalition 4, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by John Dorney and featured Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor, Nicola Walker as Liv Chenka and Hattie Morahan as Helen Sinclair.

Publisher's summary

The Doctor, Liv and Helen are hurtling into a future that has been utterly destroyed, trapped inside a shuttle with no possible means of escape. But with the lives of everyone in the universe in the balance, they've got to find one. And soon. When the stakes are this high, you can't just give up. Or can you?

Plot

In an escape shuttle hurtling into non-time, the Doctor effectively switches on the brakes, leaving them adrift in the Time Vortex, carried forward by temporal momentum. Liv and Helen take inventory of everything aboard the shuttle whilst the Doctor attempts to work out how to operate it.

To be completed.

textless cover.
  • The cover artwork feature the first instance of imagery from the Twelfth Doctor era being used by Big Finish. The shot of Helen in a space-suit is adapted from the iconic image for Kill the Moon but with Peter Capaldi's face replaced by Morahan's.
