The Selachian Gambit (audio story)

The Selachian Gambit was the eighth release in the sixth series of The Companion Chronicles. It saw Frazer Hines and Anneke Wills again perform the roles of Jamie McCrimmon and Polly Wright respectively.
Synopsis
The Doctor doesn't normally need money, but when the TARDIS is immobilised and a fine has to be paid, a loan from a bank in the sky seems the solution to his problem.
But then the Selachians arrive, and the Doctor and his companions find themselves hostages in the middle of a heist.
Death seems an absolute certainty. But the Doctor, Jamie, Polly and Ben have outwitted death before...
