Revision as of 14:40, 2 December 2022
Telepresence was the second story in the audio anthology, Cyber-Reality, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Guy Adams and featured Jemma Redgrave as Kate Stewart and Ingrid Oliver as Petronella Osgood, James Joyce as Josh Carter, Ramon Tikaram as Vikram Shindi and Warren Brown as Sam Bishop.
Publisher's summary
Testing salvaged equipment, Osgood leads Colonel Shindi and Josh Carter on a strange expedition into uncharted territory. A virtual world. When the team is attacked, Kate tries to assist. But it seems the technology itself is doing all it can to keep her apart from her people.
Plot
Kate and Osgood arrive at Fortress Island where Shindi has moved all of the Auctioneers' virtual reality technology and Sam is cared for in the medical facility by Lt Commander Parsons. Osgood confirms that the technology is receiving power from an external source and rushes to tell Kate that the technology is actually a bridge to another universe. Osgood, Shindi and Josh enter the other universe with the knowledge that harm caused there could cause cardiac arrest. They arrive in a ruined civilisation in a desert and encounter a pack of mutated dogs, but Kate is unable to bring them out.
Sam wakes up and hears a voice that Parsons cannot, talking about data transfer. Assuming that it is a lingering effect of the virtual reality technology, Parsons goes to let Kate know, but she receives an electric shock whilst trying to save Osgood, Shindi and Josh and is rendered unconscious. The voice locks his cerebral function and accelerates the data transfer with reprograming as the top priority. When he wakes up, he hears Shindi's voice in the other universe and Parsons, now under something else's control, tells him that he is the link.
Osgood, Shindi and Josh scare the dogs away by throwing rocks at them and are chased into a ruin by a giant worm. They get to safety on the roof.
