First broadcast in 1968, this eight-part serial follows the Doctor and his companions as they work to defeat an invasion by the Cybermen. "The Invasion" is among the more sought-after story lines, and this soundtrack recording of the entire serial is all that remains of episodes #1 and #4. Narrative explanations to the television soundtrack are provided by Frazer Hines, who played Jamie in the original program. Hines also provides some insightful remembrances in an interview at the end of the program. Following the action of a 1960s television serial using sound only can be confusing, even with Hines's explanations, due to inadequate sound quality of the original material and the nature of the action sequences. But "Doctor Who" devotees will, nonetheless, enjoy this unique recording. S.E.S. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
