This week’s freebie is for Doctor Who: The Nightmare Fair. It was written by Graham Williams and adapted by John Ainsworth. The audio drama stars Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor, Nicola Bryant as Peri, and feature guest star David Baillie as The Celestial Toymaker. The story is adapted from the script originally planned for Doctor Who season 23.

Here’s the summary as provided by Big Finish:

The TARDIS has been drawn to Blackpool in the year 1985, where the Doctor intends to investigate a dangerous space/time vortex … while enjoying some local attractions along the way. But an old enemy is watching from his base deep within the amusement park, a timeless being who craves revenge.

The Celestial Toymaker has returned. The game is on. And, should he lose, the Doctor will pay the ultimate forfeit…
