Night of the Whisper was the ninth release of the Destiny of the Doctor audio series, produced by Big Finish Productions for AudioGO.

Publisher's summary

New Vegas, 23rd Century — a sprawling city huddling beneath an artificial atmospheric bubble on a distant moon. Pleasure seekers flock there from every corner of the galaxy, to take in the shows and play the tables in the huge casinos. But beneath the glitz and the glitter, organised crime rules the streets.

Whilst Rose Tyler works as a waitress in the Full Moon nightclub, Jack Harkness poses as a reporter for the Daily Galaxy. Meanwhile, the Doctor is helping the police department with their investigation into the Whisper, a strange vigilante that has been terrorising the city's underworld. But the Doctor is also on a mission of his own — to save Police Chief McNeil's life at all costs.

Notes

  • This audio was recorded on 31 May 2013.
  • This is the first original audio to feature the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler, and the first set in Series 1
  • This is the first (non-televised) original story starring the Ninth Doctor, Rose Tyler and Jack Harkness since PROSE: The Stealers of Dreams in September 2005.
  • In contrast to the previous releases featuring the companion as the protagonist, the Ninth Doctor serves as the main character.
  • The phrase "The trip of a lifetime" is invoked several times; this references the words spoken by the Doctor to the viewing audience during the first BBC One trailer promoting the return of the series in 2005.
