Storm Warning

After the Fox TV movie failed to go to series. Paul McGann began to lend his voice to a series of audio adventures staring his incarnation of the 8th Doctor. Many count these episodes cannon since they are the only real adventures that Mr. McGann had as the Doctor. So far there have been over thirty stories recorded with more planned.
Stories can be downloaded from the Big Finish Site.
The first in the series:

Storm Warning
Writer: Alan BarnesDirector: Gary RussellProducers: Jason Haigh-Ellery, Gary Russell, Jacqueline RaynerMusic: Alistair LockRecorded on: 18th May 2000
Running Time: 110 minutes

Paul Mcgann, India Fisher
Lord Tamworth: Gareth Thomas; Lt. Col. Fraying: Nicholas Pegg; Rathbone: Barnaby Edwards; Chief Steward Weeks: Hylton Collins; Triskete: Helen Goldwyn
After a dangerous encounter in the space/time vortex the Doctor finds himself on Earth, October 1930. Or rather above it, aboard the British airship R101 on its maiden voyage over France. Also on board is a young stowaway, Charlotte 'Charley' Pollard, seeking adventure and excitement away from her stifling family atmosphere. What Charley doesn't know but the Doctor does is that the flight is destined to end in tragedy, although no-one really knows why. Not even the Doctor, although maybe the passenger in Cabin 43 can help...
