The One Doctor (audio story): Difference between revisions

Publisher's summary

When the evil Skelloids launch an attack upon the seventeen worlds of the Generios system, its peace-loving inhabitants face total destruction.

So it's lucky that the Doctor, that famous traveller in time and space, is in the area, and that he, along with his pretty young assistant, Sally-Anne, manages to defeat the deadly creatures and save the day.

But now it looks as though the Doctor's luck has run out.

Who is the mysterious, curly-haired stranger, intent on causing trouble? What role does the feisty redhead Melanie play in his scheme? And what have they to do with the sinister alien cylinder approaching Generios?

One thing is certain: for the Doctor and Sally-Anne, there's deadly danger ahead...

The Doctor

The Cylinder calls the Doctor Johann Schimdt, Ka Faraq Gatri, Theta Sigma and Snail.

Locations

On June 1975 the Doctor based himself in Woking during the Cyberman invasion; the back bedroom had purple wall paper.
Mel lived in a large house in Pease Pottage (around seven miles from town).

Species

Spraxis Jelloids are large single celled organisms.
The Sinister Sponges worship the Loofah of Life.
A Spaag of Vishtek 3 ate Sally-Anne's Aunty Sue.
The Quarks are mentioned by Banto.

Planets

Banto Zane is from the planet Osphogus, it was terraformed five thousand years ago.
The Jelloid is expecting a home entertainment system from the planet Bendalos.

The depot for said entertainment system is on Sirrinus Traxia.

Abydos is located in the Rim Worlds; nothing much is out there.
The Questioner poses a question to Mentos about the Masterbakers of Barastabon.

Objects

The Stardis, Banto and Sally-Anne's mock TARDIS shaped like a portaloo.
The Cylinder projects its transmission over Generios 1 using a Multi-Phase Corpolectic Sound Wave.
At the start of this adventure the Doctor is indulging in his megalomaniacal side and playing Monopoly.

Three Great Treasures of Generios

UNIT ZX419, also known as the Shelves of Infinity, are infinite and therefore impossible to put up.
Mentos; or rather the control box to Mentos.
The largest diamond in existence.

Notes

This is the first of Big Finish Productions' "Christmas releases" stories which are a bit more light-hearted than other releases. The following year (2002) Bang-Bang-A-Boom! a story again parodying popular media-culture. In years following Bang-Bang-A-Boom's release Big Finished offered subscriber only special releases, thought they tend to cover all genres rather than the lighter-toned style that this story and Bang-Bang-A-Boom cover.
The third episode features the alternative Delaware version of the Doctor Who theme tune- a nod to the overseas print of Carnival of Monsters.

Continuity

Mentos asks the Doctor if he's going to use one of those "fox the computer conundrums...the last thing I said was false and all that", which was first mentioned in DW: The Green Death.
The names the Cylinder calls the Doctor hail from specific stories: Johann Schimdt (BFA: Colditz, BFA: Klein's Story, NA: Timewyrm: Exodus, BFA: Storm Warning), Ka Faraq Gatri (DWN: Remembrance of the Daleks (novelisation), NA: Timewyrm: Revelation) Theta Sigma (DW: The Armageddon Factor, DW: The Happiness Patrol) and Snail (NA: Lungbarrow)

Timeline

The One Doctor occurs after PDA: The Quantum Archangel
The One Doctor occurs before BFA: The Juggernauts
