The Bad Penny was the sixth story in the seventh series of The Fourth Doctor Adventures, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Dan Starkey and featured Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor and Louise Jameson as Leela.

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

In the 1970s, hotelier Ron Tulip is having a difficult time. Many of his customers seem to be absconding without payment. The few who remain complain of strange noises and terrible sleep. And to top it all he's just been summoned to the VIP suite... which is something of a problem as he didn't even realise the hotel had one.

When turbulence in time takes the TARDIS off course, the Doctor and Leela find themselves visiting the same establishment and in the middle of a temporal paradox and a terrible plan.

Because that's the thing about the Cross-Keys hotel.

You can check in... but you can never leave.
