Tom Baker reprises the role of the Fourth Doctor in the first of five
thrilling brand new adventures, with Susan Jameson as Mrs. Wibbsey.
The
Doctor’s return to Nest Cottage lands him in trouble when a key
component from the TARDIS disappears. Mrs. Wibbsey is inadvertently
responsible, but all she can offer in recompense is a bag containing
four curious objects. It seems that each one is a clue and the
beginning of a chase through time.
In ancient Sussex they are apprehended
by primitive tribesfolk and mistaken for wizards. Can the revered
goddess Wibbsentia get them out of hot water?
Who is the fearful wizard
in the neighboring village, and why is the countryside littered with
bodies? The Doctor and Mrs. Wibbsey are about to discover that all is not
right with history…
With Tom Baker as the Doctor, Susan Jameson as Mrs. Wibbsey, Nigel Anthony as the Wizard, Rupert Holliday Evans and Kate Sachs as the warriors, and Richard Franklin as Mike Yates, The Relics of Time is the first of five linked stories written by the acclaimed Paul Magrs.

“In a market saturated with Doctor Who audio adventures of every
conceivable kind, there is nothing else even remotely like the acclaimed Paul
Magrs/Tom Baker multivoice adventures, and I’m pleased to report that the
first installment of their Demon Quest saga really hits the ground running…As
ever, Baker and Magrs make for the most luscious of combinations. The actor is
clearly appreciative of the author’s lyrical language, delighting in every
beautifully crafted sentence that he delivers…Of course, Baker’s resonant tones
are such that he could make almost anything sound imposing…The adventure itself
is a rather whimsical yarn…The Relics of
Time is an adventure that I vigorously recommend…Demon Quest’s fun-filled first chapter is a real delight, and I
look forward to following the Doctor and his cantankerous cottage-keeper to
Paris.”
