Voyage to the New World was the second and final special Doctor Who story in Big Finish Productions' Jago & Litefoot range. It was written by Matthew Sweet and featured Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor, Christopher Benjamin as Henry Gordon Jago and Trevor Baxter as George Litefoot.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The TARDIS materialises in the past, and the Doctor's companions, Professor Litefoot and Henry Gordon Jago, find themselves prisoners of the natives in the New World.
But there's something something strange here — stranger than even the colonists, led by Englishman John White.
What are the ghostly children? And who is the Old Man of Croaton?
The travellers are about to discover the secret of the lost colony... and it may cost Jago's life.
