Ship in a Bottle was the first audio story in the anthology Doom Coalition 4. It starred Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor, Nicola Walker as Liv Chenka, and Hattie Morahan as Helen Sinclair.

Publisher's summary

The Doctor, Liv and Helen are hurtling into a future that has been utterly destroyed, trapped inside a shuttle with no possible means of escape. But with the lives of everyone in the universe in the balance, they've got to find one. And soon. When the stakes are this high, you can't just give up. Or can you?
