About this listen
The Professor and Ace arrive in present-day London to find the city strangely changed. England is a republic, ruled by an elderly Lord Protector more interested in a mysterious comet than the long-suppressed forces of revolution fomenting in his kingdom. As political factions vie for power, the travellers become embroiled in the plans of King Charles XIV who stands poised to reclaim the throne. Can they discover who is behind the drastic alteration of history or will the Puritan cause triumph throughout eternity?
Written by Mark Gatiss. Directed by Bill Baggs. Post-Production and Music by Alistair Lock. Sylvester McCoy (The Professor), Sophie Aldred (Ace), John Wadmore (Le Compte), Andrew Fettes (Devlin), Bryonie Pritchard (Somerset), Michael Wade (Lambert), George Telfer (Charles XIV), John Ainsworth (Equerry).
A full-cast audio drama.

Story
It is the time of the Second World War, and all is not well at a top-secret research base in Greenland. The British have been testing a new device which could bring about a swift end to the war with Germany - but the trials have gone disastrously wrong. When the Professor and Ace arrive, they encounter an isolated community not only under threat from its human enemies, but stalked by a horrifying menace with a voracious appetite for survival.
