In the far future and the recent past, the Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan discover that humans can
be monsters too. Contains two new adventures; 1. Friendly Fire by John Dorney (3 parts). When the TARDIS needs to reset itself, the Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan find themselves having to
fill time on a space-hub filled with numerous attractions. This pleases Tegan and Nyssa no
end... but the Doctor is more interested in visiting an alien friend of his living on a nearby
mining planet and is able to persuade his friends to join him. But on arrival his friend is nowhere to be found and the locals are more than slightly
unwelcoming. With limited options for departure and a hostile populace they may be in a lot of
trouble. Sometimes true monsters are found in the strangest places. 2. The Edge of the War by Jonathan Barnes (3 parts). France in the summer of 1936. The village of Villy is in a state of contentment, tinged only
slightly with unease. A kilometre away, construction is underway on a large underground
fortification, part of the Maginot Line project which has seen the building of a series of
defences against future invasion. A young artist has arrived in the village to paint the landscape. Her name is Nyssa and she has
taken a room in the local inn, run in its owner's absence by a young Australian woman called
Tegan. But she's not the only newcomer. A detective called the Doctor has just got in from
Paris. And he has quite a mystery to solve...
