Horror Of Fang Rock.
Picked this amazing vinyl up, an partially narrated adaption of the original story from 1977, with lovely linking narration from the lovelier Louise Jameson. Its an atmospheric tale, one of the very best in Tom Baker's run, bookended by two stories I am equally fond off, even though they were a season apart. Mining gold they were in those far off days and boy had they struck a rich vein.I remember running down the dark street, Etna Drive, to meet my mate Fergie to discuss "What the hell was crawling about the light house on Fang Rock killing people?" We had to wait a couple of weeks as the story played out, long dark weeks, but that was the lot of Doctor Wh fans in those days.
We were all on the slow path through time.
