'THE TIME OF HUMANITY ON THIS WORLD HAS COME TO AN END. THE LONG NIGHT IS STARTING. THE AGE OF THE UNDEAD IS UPON US.'

Manchester, 1993. The vampires of Great Britain have received a message: the lon-awaited arrival of their evil messiah is imminent. It's time for a recruitment drive.

On holiday in Tasmania with Tegan and the Doctor, Nyssa is attacked by a demonic child. She escapes unharmed — except for two small wounds in her neck.

Why are the descendants of the Great Vampire so desperate to obtain the blood of a Time Lord? And what is their connection to a forbidden ancient Gallifreyan cult?

'SOMEONE IS TAMPERING WITH THE FABRIC OF THE HUMAN CELL,' THE DOCTOR SAID DARKLY, 'PERVERTING ITS SECRETS TO HIS OWN PURPOSES.'

Sarah Jane wants to meet her fellow journalist Rudyard Kipling, and the Doctor sets the co-ordinates for England, Earth, in the Victorian Age. As usual, the TARDIS materializes in not quite the right place, and the time travellers find themselves pursued across Devon moorland by a huge feral hound.

Children have gone missing; at the local boarding school, the young Rudyard Kipling has set up search parties. Lights have been seen beneath the waters of the bay, and fishermen have been pulled from their boats and mutilated. Graves have been robbed of their corpses. Something is going on, and Arthur Conan Doyle, the ship's doctor from a recently berthed arctic whaler, is determined to investigate.

The Doctor and Doyle join forces to uncover a macabre scheme to interfere with human evolution — and both Sarah Jane and Kipling face a terrifying transmogrification.

'YOU WANT ME TO HELP YOU EAT YOUR CHILDREN?' IAN SAID. JELLUNHUT'S EYE-STALKS TWITCHED. 'HOW ELSE SHOULD WE REMEMBER THEM?'

Venus is dying. When the Doctor, Barbara and Ian arrive they find an ancient and utterly alien civilization on the verge of oblivion. War is brewing between those who are determined to accept death, and those desperate for salvation whatever the cost.

Then a spacefaring race arrives, offering to rescue the Venusians by moving them to Earth — three billion years before mankind is due to evolve. Are the newcomers' motives as pure as they appear? And will the Doctor allow them to save his oldest friends by sacrificing the future of humanity?

When the galaxy's most notorious crime boss is murdered in the Bucephalus, the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough are immediately arrested for the killing. To prove their innocence, they must track down the perpetrators of slaughter and sabotage, and uncover a conspiracy which has been 5,000 years in the making.

'IN LESS THAN 25 YEARS THE ROMANS HAVE INVENTED ELECTRICITY GENERATION, AIRSHIPS, RADIO AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE. IS THAT REASONABLE?'

Ancient Egypt, 41 BC. The Doctor and Peri watch as Cleopatra's pleasure barge glides up the Nile in preperation for her fateful meeting with Mark Anthony. And an alien presence observes the TARDIS, waits for it to dematerialize, then pounces.

When the ship lands, the Doctor and Peri find themselves in ancient Rome, in the tomb of Cleopatra. But something is very wrong. The tomb walls depict steam-driven galleys and other disturbing anachronisms. The Roman Empire is preparing for a devastating war — using weapons from the future capable of destroying the entire world.
