Deathworld was part of the eighth series of The Lost Stories, produced by Big Finish Productions. Although it was numbered as the first story in the series, it was the second to be released.

It was adapted by John Dorney from a storyline submitted by Bob Baker and Dave Martin in 1972.

Publisher's summary

The Doctor was dead, to begin with. Killed alongside his beloved Jo Grant in an explosion in the UNIT labs. But Time Lords are notoriously hard to kill.

Because with UNIT under siege, the Brigadier is rescued by two familiar faces... the Doctor he first encountered, fighting the Yeti, and Jamie McCrimmon. With yet one more waiting in the wings.

They are all pawns in a deadly game of chess played by a being more powerful than any they’ve ever encountered before. And when you battle Death himself... can anyone even win?
