This story was written for the ‘Short Trips’ contest run by Big Finish, a producer of Audiobooks and full cast audio dramas.
I decided to write a story featuring the Second Doctor, as portrayed by Patrick Troughton. He would be accompanied by Jamie and Zoe as he ran into Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and what appeared to be a sighting of the fairies…
Sadly I wasn’t selected, but I’m proud of this story nevertheless. I guess it counts as fan-fiction, and it was the first time I’ve tried to do that. Working with established (and well-loved) characters is an interesting challenge, trying to ensure my own voice shows through while you hopefully still recognise the Doctor and his companions.
Please note: This story is not sanctioned by or associated in any way with Dr Who, Big Finish, the BBC, the Doyle Estate or any other entity. I make no claim of ownership over the characters, settings, or any plot points.
Genre: Science Fiction
