Scherzo (audio story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Publisher's summary
Once upon a time...
There were two friends, and together they travelled the cosmos. They thwarted tyrants and defeated monsters, they righted wrongs wherever they went. They explored the distant future and the distant past, new worlds and galaxies, places beyond imagining.
But every good story has to come to an end.
With no times or places left to explore, all the two friends have now are each other. But maybe that's one voyage too many. Maybe they'll discover things they'd rather have left undisturbed... hidden away in the suffocating, unfeeling, deafening brightness.
Once upon a time. Far, far away.

References

Notes
- At the time it was released, this was the only piece of performed Doctor Who fiction since The Edge of Destruction to feature only the regular cast.
- This story features the Doctor and Charley in one of the most intimate exchanges between a companion and Doctor in performed Doctor Who. They come fairly close to having sex. However, in both MA: The Dying Days and BFA: Benny's Story, it is implied that the Eighth Doctor and Bernice Summerfield had sex on one occasion.
Continuity
- Charley refers to the fact that she should have died in the crash of the British airship R101 on 5 October 1930. (BFA: Storm Warning)
