COMING SOON: DOCTOR WHO - THE AUDIO ADVENTURES - SERIES 4
FAMOUS FACES: AMELIA EARHART TO FEATURE IN SERIES 4 HISTORICAL STORY
Hello all.
I've been a little quiet about this as I didn't want to confirm anything until details had been finalised, but I am happy to say plans are going ahead to produce stories for my Doctor Who audio series which involve the Doctor and friends meeting a famous face of history.
During the new series this has been a common thing, involving the Doctor meeting many famous people throughout history including: Charles Dickens, Queen Victoria, William Shakespeare, Agatha Christie, Vincent Van Gogh, Rosa Parks, and Nikola Tesla.
This is something that I have never touched upon or approached and have had regrets not doing it sooner, however, I never really felt there was a good enough story I could tell to do the famous historical person in question justice. However, with the standard of stories being so high this series and episodes like 'Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror' and 'The Haunting of Villa Diodati' coming out on top, I thought well, why not? Let's try it.
I've picked a person whom you may not be too aware off in regards to who she is or what she did, but it's Amelia Earhart
Amelia Earhart was an American aviation pioneer and author, she was the first female aviator to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. She set many records, wrote best selling books about her flying experiences, and proved to be instrumental in the formation of the Ninety-Nines an organisation of female pilots. Earhart mysteriously disappeared on her flight over the central Pacific Ocean, near Howland Island on the 2nd of July 1937. No one knows what happened to her or her plane. So I figured what a nice mystery this will make for a Doctor Who story, I'm surprised it's a story that's not been touched on before.
It will interesting to explore her background further and do the necessary research that's needed in order to understand her and her story, who she was about and the foundations of that research will develop into the story.
Not much is being developed on this story as of yet, but it will certainly make an interesting one to spice up the series.
Scripts are underway and more information of Doctor Who Audio Adventures will be revealed once scripts are completed.
