These vinyl boxset releases from Demon Records never fail to be wonderful, check out my reviews of Doctor Who: Demon Quest, plus Serpent Crest, and definitely the must-have Tom Baker Record Collection!

“There goes my TARDIS!”

Next up, they celebrate David Tennant and Catherine Tate’s partnership as the Doctor and Donna with two audio-exclusive stories, read by the actors themselves, release on 24 May 2024 but available to pre-order now.

In Pest Control, read by Tennant, the Doctor and Donna face monstrous insects and a ruthless robot exterminator when the TARDIS is lost in battle on a distant planet.

The Doctor sets off in pursuit of his craft, while Donna finds herself accepting a commission in the Pioneer Corps. Something is transforming soldiers into monstrous beetles – and she could be the next victim.

In The Forever Trap, read by Tate, the duo find themselves imprisoned in a complex of luxury apartments in space, and neighbours to a terrifying assortment of aliens. Deadly mobs wage battle in the corridors and on the stairwells, and the travellers must cross their paths as they search for the ultimate authority. Who, or what, lies at the heart of the Edifice?

This is another lovely boxset, with an illustrated lift-off lid, features 6 x 140g vinyl LPs – three in Transparent Red and three in Transparent Yellow – each housed in a unique inner sleeve! A four page booklet features sleeve notes by authors Peter Anghelides and Dan Abnett, who reflect on the process of writing for the Tenth Doctor and Donna, and how they regard the stories 17 years later.

On vinyl for the first time, accompanied by original sound design and Murray Gold’s Series 4 arrangement of the familiar theme music, these two high-octane adventures are a great reminder of the all of the fun of Who!
