The White Room was the second full cast audio story in the Dark Eyes 2 audio anthology released in 2014 by Big Finish Productions. It starred Paul McGann as the Doctor and Ruth Bradley as Molly O'Sullivan.

Publisher's summary

Molly O'Sullivan is still trying to help people, but now she is back in London, staying in Baker Street.

But there are dangerous forces abroad. Where are the young deserters disappearing to? Who are the Huntsmen? And what is really going on at the Blackwell Convalescent Home?

Perhaps the mysterious "Surgeon General" has the answers. To find out, the Doctor must tackle an old and baffling enemy.
