BBC Audiobooks Celebrates Complete Run of Doctor Who TV Novelisations

BBC Audiobooks has announced the completion of the full sequence of audiobook novelisations covering every televised Doctor Who adventure from The Daleks (1964) to Rose (2005).

This landmark is celebrated with the release of Doctor Who and the Loch Ness Monster, read by Jon Culshaw, an audio adaptation of  Terrance Dicks’s 1976 novelisation of the beloved Fourth Doctor story Terror of the  Zygons. 

This milestone marks the culmination of over 160 unabridged audiobook titles,  representing every televised Doctor Who story between the Daleks’ debut in late 1963 through to the revival of the series in 2005. 

What began with Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks by David  Whitaker in 1964 - later reissued as Doctor Who and the Daleks - has grown into an extraordinary legacy of storytelling. The Target Books range has ensured that each of those adventures, from the black-and-white classics to the dawn of the modern era, has been preserved and reimagined in sound. 

61 narrators have contributed their voices to this audio chronicle of the Doctor’s TV  adventures, including five on-screen Doctors (Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, Peter  Davison, Colin Baker and Paul McGann).

This is in addition to numerous companions, allies and adversaries bringing each story to life, lending their talents to  both narrative and dialogue.

Their readings are accompanied by key special effects and the authentic voices of Daleks, Cybermen, and K9, courtesy of Nicholas Briggs  and John Leeson.
