Intelligence for War was the story comprising the twelfth release in The Third Doctor Adventures, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Eddie Robson and featured Tim Treloar as the Third Doctor, Daisy Ashford as Liz Shaw and Jon Culshaw as Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart.

Publisher's summary

The Doctor and Liz Shaw investigate a disturbing incident in the quiet Norfolk village of Huncleath, involving a vanishing Nazi soldier. Is time travel technology to blame? And what is the link between the disappearance of the village's wealthiest resident, Francis Teeling, and anti-war campaigners in Cambridge?

As the Brigadier mobilises UNIT, a secret branch of the British military has serious concerns about UNIT's scientific advisor — Dr Elizabeth Shaw.

In the ensuing struggle, Liz must make connections with her past, consider her future and fight against both incarceration and an unusual alien weapon. And try as he might, the Doctor may not be able to help her!

Plot

Part one

The Doctor reads in The Clarion about a Nazi captain invading a pub in Huncleath and, after speaking with landlord Ken Sharpe over the telephone, he heads off in Bessie to investigate the possibility of a temporal anomaly. Liz, sceptical of the story in part because of the newspaper's reputation, accompanies him to the pub for lunch and deduces that the Doctor is hoping to use the technology causing the anomaly to get the TARDIS working and leave Earth.

Before the Brigadier can leave for Geneva, he meets with Colonel Matthews of the military's Pinpoint Division and learns that Liz has been flagged for her membership of the Anti-War Alliance when she was a student. The Brigadier has long been aware of this, however, and believes it to be of no concern.

The Doctor and Liz fail to detect an energy signature at the pub and question the locals, coming to the conclusion that Ken is trustworthy and unlikely to have lied. They help Florrie after she claims to have been attacked by a Spanish nationalist and the Doctor theorises that people are being targeted by opponents from wars that they experienced. After calling UNIT, they visit the house of the murdered George and chase a Sylimenta, but Matthews arrives with the Brigadier and arrests Liz for treason.

Part two

Liz is taken away by Matthews at gunpoint and the Brigadier joins the Doctor in his investigation, finding the Nazi in the pub and watching it mutate into the Sylimenta before disappearing.
