The Creeping Death was the third and final story in The Tenth Doctor Adventures: Volume Three, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Roy Gill and featured David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and Catherine Tate as Donna Noble.
Publisher's summary
London, 1952, and a deadly smog envelops the capital. But something even more dangerous - and alien - is hiding within the mists.
When the Doctor and Donna get lost in the fog, they find a motley group of Londoners trying to make their way home.
Soon the stakes are raised, as death creeps along fume-choked streets, and not everyone will make it out alive....
