The Holy Terror (audio drama)


The Holy Terror is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It is notable for incorporating Frobisher, a regular character from Doctor Who Magazine's comic strip during the mid-1980s.

Plot

The Sixth Doctor and Frobisher become involved in a power struggle in a mysterious castle culminating in a bloodbath. The Doctor and Frobisher finds themselves involved with a society which strictly adheres to a complex and apparently illogical set of customs. Drawing inspiration from the Shakespearean tragedy as well as exploring unpleasant elements of the father/child relationship and infanticide this is one of the darker episodes.
This is the first Doctor Who audio story to feature Frobisher.
This episode addresses issues of crime and retribution, self-determinacy, religious extremism and custom.
