Latest revision as of 13:22, 18 October 2024
The Gulf was the second and final story in the audio anthology The Third Doctor Adventures: Volume Seven, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Tim Foley and featured Tim Treloar as the Third Doctor and Sadie Miller as Sarah Jane Smith.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The TARDIS lands on an ocean planet where the Doctor and Sarah find themselves stranded on a former rig, which has recently been converted into an artistic retreat.
But art is far from the residents' minds. A troubled member of their collective has disappeared, and the Doctor senses a sinister psychic presence. The waves are rising. And there's something in the water.
Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
Part one[[edit] | [edit source]]
The TARDIS materialises on an obsolete Earth Empire spin drifter on an ocean world and the Doctor and Sarah look around, crossing a bridge towards a figure that Sarah sees. The figure disappears, but Lynette warns them that the bridge is unsafe and it collapses because of their weight as they reach the other side, separating them from the TARDIS. Although Lynette is unhappy about their arrival as she believes them to be from Depot, the conglomeration that owns the spin drifter, Marta welcomes them and has Lynette take Sarah to Pen for some dry clothes. She explains to the Doctor that the spin drifter, known as the Collective, is a retreat for artists and that Laurel, one of their number, disappeared the night before.
Marta, whom the Doctor realises is the famed painter Marta Malvani, gives the Doctor a tour and introduces him to Jesko, a cook, before taking him to the hydroponic garden. At the Doctor's request, she takes him to Laurel's room where they are joined by Sarah and Pen and look at Laurel's latest watercolour, one depicting tentacled creatures in the ocean. Looking at them gives the Doctor a feeling which he felt whilst outside. Although this is a theme present in many of the artists' works, there is supposedly no life native to the planet and Marta states that they are likely metaphorical. The Doctor touches the painting once Marta and Pen have gone and realises that Laurel used water from the sea, which is poisoned by trivax.
At dinner, Sarah admires a portrait of Marta's daughter, who was killed at the border of Barbica whilst on a pleasure cruise. When the Doctor asks the group what they think of the retreat, Pen says that the sea screams at night and Jesko reports that those who worked at the spin drifter before its closure experienced strange phenomena which led to Depot pulling out. Marta disregards this, however. The Doctor and Sarah spend the night in the observation lounge to listen out for the screams and hear a knocking from the deck below. Pen warns them not to go outside through the hatch, but the Doctor ignores her and the hatch opens.

Laurel enters through the hatch and Marta sends her straight to bed rather than making her answer questions on her whereabouts. In the morning, she explains that she fell into the water for a few seconds and spent several hours recovering before making the considerable climb back up the spin drifter. She returns to her work without eating breakfast and the Doctor recommends that Marta contacts the authorities via an astral flare regardless of Laurel's return, telling Sarah that she could not have survived the trivax nor made the climb.
