Island of Lost Souls (audio story)

Island of Lost Souls was the second audio in BBV Productions' Audio Adventures in Time & Space anthology series and the second episode of the subseries The Time Travellers. It continued to star Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred as the Professor and Ace, close analogues of their BBC characters the Seventh Doctor and Ace.
== Publisher's summary ==
It is the time of the Second World War, and all is not well at a top secret research base in Greenland. The British have been testing a new device which could bring about a swift end to the war with Germany — but the trials have gone disastrously wrong. When the Professor and Ace arrive, they encounter an isolated community not only under threat from its human enemies, but stalked by a horrifying menace with a voracious appetite for survival.

== Notes ==
* Mark Gatiss had pitched three BBC Past Doctor Adventures when in need of quick cash, including Fathoms of Doom, The Roundheads and Cromwell's Dust. After only The Roundheads was produced, he kept the other two pitches in reserve, and ultimately adapted them into two BBV stories, with Fathoms of Doom being renamed first Lords of Silence and then Island of Lost Souls (with Cromwell's Dust becoming Republica). Island had a large number of rewrites by director Nick Briggs, with the ending being completely changed. Downtime: The Lost Years of Doctor Who Chapter 17 (Dylan Rees)
