About this listen
An unabridged reading of this classic novelisation featuring the First Doctor and the Meddling Monk.
When the TARDIS materialises on an apparently deserted Northumbrian beach, Steven disputes the Doctor's claim that they have travelled back to the 11th century. The discovery of a modern wristwatch in a nearby forest merely reinforces his opinion.
But it is 1066, the most important date in English history, and the Doctor's arrival has not gone unnoticed. Observing the appearance of the TARDIS is a mysterious monk, who recognises the time machine for what it is. He also knows that the Doctor poses a serious threat to his master plan - a plan which, if successful, could alter the future of the entire world....
Duration: 4 hours approx.

An unabridged reading of this classic novelisation of a 1968 TV adventure featuring the Second Doctor, as played on screen by Patrick Troughton. For 40 years the Yeti had been quiet, a collector's item in a museum. Then, without warning, it awoke and savagely murdered. At about the same time, patches of mist began to appear in Central London. People who lingered in the mist were found dead, their faces smothered in cobwebs. The cobweb seeped down, penetrating the Underground System.

Time Lord Vs Time Lord.
This story is the one in which the Doctor meets one of his kind for the first time in the original series. Though the name of the Doctor spices known as the Time lords hadn’t been invented yet. The monk as the time lord is known is not as evil as the Master, but is just as as smart as the Doctor. It’s really interesting in how the Doctor deals with the monk in the end. The Doctor proves you can destroy an enemy without using violence. You have to listen to find out the Doctors method . The monk returns in the epic Daleks Masterplan. But after the Daleks adventure is never seen on television again. I think he appears in Doctor Who novels, but I don’t know their titles.
