''to be added''
[[Evelyn Smythe|Evelyn]] comes by to see one of her students, [[Sally (Doctor Who and the Pirates)|Sally]], and begins telling her a story, despite the objections of the distressed Sally, who is not in the mood to see anyone. With some inaccuracies and exaggerations, Evelyn retells an adventure she has just experienced with [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]], in which they found themselves in the hold of a ship being boarded by the [[pirate]]s in the [[Caribbean Sea]] in the [[18th century]]. The Doctor himself soon comes over and joins Evelyn in her storytelling. Together, they talk - and sing - about how they accompanied the crew and the pirates to the [[Ruby Islands]], named so after the treasure buried there. With little help from the incompetent captain [[Emmanuel Swan|Swan]], the Doctor was able to reunite him with his crew and send them on their way in the usurped pirate ship, while leaving the pirates stranded on the Islands with the treasure and a fake treasure map.
 
During this adventure, the cruel pirate captain [[Red Jasper]] beat a cabin boy to death, which deeply affected Evelyn, who blamed herself for not being able to stop Jasper. When she and the Doctor eventually returned to [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], she asked to be taken home. She wanted to take a break from travelling in the TARDIS and seeing all the horrors that come with it - only to discover another one waiting at home: a [[suicide]] letter from Sally. Sally had lost someone close to her in a [[car accident]], and since she was the one driving, she blamed herself - just like Evelyn with the cabin boy. However, while Evelyn had the Doctor to talk to about it, Sally had nobody. Thus Evelyn asked the Doctor to travel back in time to the day the letter was sent, so that they could spend time with Sally and talk her out of killing herself. After spending the entire night with her, they succeed: greeting the next day with a smile, Sally now understands that life is worth living, because there are still people who care about her.

* This audio drama has three conceivable titles:
* The subtitle "The Lass that Lost a Sailor" suggests the subtitle of Gilbert & Sullivan's ''HMS Pinafore'', "The Lass Who Loved a Sailor".
:* '''Doctor Who and the Pirates''' (making it similar to ''[[Doctor Who and the Silurians]]'')
* In addition to a number of Gilbert and Sullivan inspired songs, Part 4 ends with a version of the theme arranged to imitate the style incidental music used in the drama.
:* '''The Lass that Lost a Sailor'''
* Most of the story — including the musical numbers — is told in flashback, as a story the Doctor and Evelyn tell a young woman, allowing musical numbers to erupt in the otherwise non-musical Doctor Who universe.

* The Doctor mentions that he and Evelyn have arrived during the reign of Queen Anne, who came to the throne of England in 1702. Red Jasper mentions that nine years earlier William III and Mary II ruled England; Mary II died in 1694. This means that this story is set in 1703 at the latest.

Doctor Who and the Pirates, or The Lass that Lost a Sailor, was the forty-third story in Big Finish's monthly range. It was written by Jacqueline Rayner and featured Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor and Maggie Stables as Evelyn Smythe.

It was also Big Finish Productions' first musical audio story. It has a score inspired by Gilbert and Sullivan songs.

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

All aboard, me hearties, for a rip-roaring tale of adventure on the high seas!

There'll be rum for all and sea shanties galore as we travel back in time to join the valiant crew of the good ship Sea Eagle, braving perils, pirates and a peripatetic old sea-dog known only as the Doctor!

Gasp as our Gallifreyan buccaneer crosses swords with the fearsome Red Jasper, scourge of the seven seas and possessor of at least one wooden leg! Thrill as Evil Evelyn the Pirate Queen sets sail in search of buried treasure, with only a foppish ship's captain and an innocent young cabin boy by her side! Marvel at the melodious mayhem which ensues as we sail the ocean blue!

And wonder why Evelyn still hasn't realised that very few stories have happy endings...

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

Evelyn comes by to see one of her students, Sally, and begins telling her a story, despite the objections of the distressed Sally, who is not in the mood to see anyone. With some inaccuracies and exaggerations, Evelyn retells an adventure she has just experienced with the Doctor, in which they found themselves in the hold of a ship being boarded by the pirates in the Caribbean Sea in the 18th century. The Doctor himself soon comes over and joins Evelyn in her storytelling. Together, they talk - and sing - about how they accompanied the crew and the pirates to the Ruby Islands, named so after the treasure buried there. With little help from the incompetent captain Swan, the Doctor was able to reunite him with his crew and send them on their way in the usurped pirate ship, while leaving the pirates stranded on the Islands with the treasure and a fake treasure map.

During this adventure, the cruel pirate captain Red Jasper beat a cabin boy to death, which deeply affected Evelyn, who blamed herself for not being able to stop Jasper. When she and the Doctor eventually returned to the TARDIS, she asked to be taken home. She wanted to take a break from travelling in the TARDIS and seeing all the horrors that come with it - only to discover another one waiting at home: a suicide letter from Sally. Sally had lost someone close to her in a car accident, and since she was the one driving, she blamed herself - just like Evelyn with the cabin boy. However, while Evelyn had the Doctor to talk to about it, Sally had nobody. Thus Evelyn asked the Doctor to travel back in time to the day the letter was sent, so that they could spend time with Sally and talk her out of killing herself. After spending the entire night with her, they succeed: greeting the next day with a smile, Sally now understands that life is worth living, because there are still people who care about her.
