Doctor Who

Two original Doctor Who adventures, read by Matt Smith and Meera Syal of the hit series on BBC America! The Jade Pyramid: Intercepting a distress call, the TARDIS is drawn to a Shinto shrine in medieval Japan, where the Doctor and Amy are met by a village elder. He explains that the ogre-like mannequins surrounding the holy site are harmless guardians called Otoroshi. At the heart of the temple is an ancient jade pyramid so sacred that only the monks may look at it. But the ruler of Japan wants to possess the pyramid, and has ordered seven samurai and a band of soldiers to seize it. While the Doctor is tracked by a ninja assassin, Amy discovers what happens to trespassers at the shrine. Soon the secrets of the jade pyramid will be known The Gemini Contagion: The ice-planet Vinsk, in the year 2112. A new antiviral handwash, Gemini, has been laced with Meme-Spawna sentient microorganism which makes the user fluent in every language in the universe. However, manufacturer Zalnex made one crucial mistake. They didnt test Gemini on humans, who are seized by the violent urge to communicate but speak every language all at oncewith a manic, garbled shriekand pass on the virus by touch. The Doctor and Amy arrive on an Earthbound cargo-ship loaded with Gemini, where a human crew are succumbing to the virus. They both know that its only a matter of time before Amy is infected. With the ship locked on course, and no way of curing the sufferers, the Doctor is faced with a terrible decision: save Amy, or save Earth?
