Stones of Venice

Staring Paul McGann & india Fisher With:
Orsino: Michael Sheard; Churchwell: Nick Scovell; Mrs. Lavish: Elaine Ives Cameron; Pietro: Barnaby Edwards; Vincenzo: Mark Gatiss


The Doctor and Charley decide to take a well deserved break from the monotony of being chased, shot at and generally suffering anti-social behaviour at the hands of others. And so they end up in Venice, well into Charley's future, as the great city prepares to sink beneath the water for the last time...
Which would be a momentous, if rather dispiriting, event to witness in itself. However, the machinations of a love sick aristocrat, a proud art historian and a rabid High Priest of a really quite dodgy cult combine to make Venice's swansong a night to remember.
