The Last Voyage (audio story)
The Last Voyage by Dan Abnett is an announced entry in BBC Audio's ongoing line of exclusive-to-audio BBC New Series Adventures. Little information has been released as yet, except for a release date (7th January 2010) and an ISBN number. Given its previous release date of summer of 2010 it was assumed that it would be an Eleventh Doctor story and was there for thought to be the first Eleventh Doctor story title to be announced. But now its been revealed that it is to be the last Tenth Doctor audio adventure.
Synposis
An exclusive audio story featuring the Tenth Doctor, as played by David Tennant in the hit BBC TV series. The TARDIS materialises on board the maiden voyage of a pioneering space cruiser, travelling from Earth to the planet Eternity. The Doctor hasn't been exploring for long when nearly all of the passengers disappear, leaving a panic-stricken few behind. As if that wasn't enough, something awful awaits them all on Eternity.
Behind the scenes
- Released nearly a week after the broadcast of DW: The End of Time, Part Two, this is one of only a couple of Tenth Doctor-related spin-off products scheduled for release after the official handover to Matt Smith's Eleventh Doctor. Another is the Quick Reads novella Code of the Krillitanes, scheduled for release in March 2010. As such this is one of the last products expected to bear the version of the Doctor Who logo introduced in 2005.
- Although his appearances on TV are considered his de facto swansong in the role, this recording is technically David Tennant's last true performance as the Doctor.
