And what new pathways will she lead the Doctor along? 1. Chase by Alan Ronald Chase had hoped for a different life... She sees no escape from her soul-sucking call centre job. But when she is accidentally connected to a mysterious police box, and the extraordinary Doctor Smith - who is just beginning one of his many long lives - her entire world will change forever. 2. Magic of the Sycorax by Katharine Armitage It's time to put Chase through her paces and so the TARDIS follows a distress signal to a remote mining base, beset by powerful forces. The Doctor's defeated the Sycorax before but, this time, they seem to have more magic, more darkness, and everyone has much more to lose... 3. Blast from the Past by Robert Valentine When the TARDIS starts playing up, the Doctor accidentally brings Chase and Alfie to Burnley in 2096, only to discover that the UK has become an authoritarian dictatorship under fascist leader Bastian Clore. Chase in turn discovers that her descendants, the Moyo family of No 19 McKellen Drive, are major players in the underground resistance movement. Beyond the obvious, something is seriously wrong with history. Has the past been rewritten by more than just the propaganda wing of Clore's jingoistic regime? And can Chase live up to the idealised memory her great-great-grandchildren hold of her?This release also includes access to download The Eighth Doctor: A New Pathway, a brand-new feature-length audio documentary, celebrating thirty years of Paul McGann’s Doctor and giving a detailed look at the creation of this new era in his life.
