Michelle Ryan's latest Doctor Who Audio adventure is available now via Big Finish. This latest episode of the full-cast audio drama series marks 60 years since the TV series began on BBC television.
Michelle Ryan stars once again as Lady Christina alongside Colin Baker as the Doctor and is joined by Camille Coduri (as Jackie Tyler), Christopher Naylor (as Harry Sullivan) and Michael Maloney (as the Renegade).
Script editor Matt Fitton said “With these 60th anniversary stories, it was great to work out what the shopping list of characters would be, who we’d throw into the mix, how they’d bounce off each other and who would work well together."
“We felt it would be really fun to put Lady Christina and Jackie together. They’re at two different ends of the social spectrum and so having them run into each other would make for an interesting mix. We’re also doing our best to represent lots of different eras of Doctor Who. And with this particular setting, we’ve got an older Harry Sullivan turning up as well.
“We’re bringing together people we’ve worked with quite a lot over the years. We know they’re fun and enjoy recording, so it’s a great group of people – both characters and actors.”

Fantastic review released for the upcoming "True Horror", with Michelle starring in the finale episode airing on Halloween 2018.
"“The Witches’ Prison” has two old school friends reuniting in St Osyth, Essex and cohabiting at an allegedly haunted place in their hometown that, legend has it, was home to much torture and torment in the days when it served as a witches’ prison. This episode generates plenty of shivers from scenes of heroine Michelle Ryan striving to protect her new-born from an increasingly prominent force of evil, and, like the quartet of episodes in general, doesn’t over-expose its central source of fright."

"When Ellen Ripley finally returns to Earth, she learns that the planet LV-426 — now called Acheron — has been colonized. But LV-426 is where Ripley and the crew of the Nostromo found the original Xenomorph — the killing machine known as the Alien.
"Protected by the Colonial Marines, the colonists seek to terraform the storm-swept planet. Two such residents are Anne and Russell Jorden, seeking a fortune that eluded them on Earth. On Acheron, Anne gives birth to the colony's first newborn, Rebecca Jorden, also known as Newt.
"The wildcatters discover a vast, decaying spaceship. The horseshoe-shaped vessel is of particular interest to Weyland-Yutani, and may be the answer to their dreams. But what Anne and Russ find on board proves to be the stuff, not of dreams, but of nightmares."
