- You may be looking for World Wide Web.
Worldwide Web was the eighth and final story in the third series of the Eighth Doctor Adventures, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Eddie Robson and featured Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor and Sheridan Smith as Lucie Miller.
This story is a continuation of The Eight Truths.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
Thanks to the Eightfold Truth, Metebelis crystals cover the Earth, and the Eight Legs, giant spiders from that distant world, are poised to take control of the planet.
As the Doctor attempts to deal with the invasion and its connection to a long-lost stellar manipulator he last saw above Orbis, Lucie Miller finds herself playing host to the Great One. Can she break free of the spider leader's control, or will she be lost forever?
And can Earth avoid becoming trapped forever in a worldwide web?
