About this listen
A haunting tale of mystery and adventure for the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday, as played on TV by Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson.
The TARDIS arrives in County Durham, England, in 1958. Seaham Chemical Beach was once a scene of heavy industry, long since abandoned, but now local residents are having nightmares and seeing apparitions. It isn’t long before the Doctor and Ruby are affected by the beach’s peculiar atmosphere. As they begin to forget exactly who they are, Ruby hears a distant voice calling her on.
Whose memories are filling the travellers’ heads, and what is the significance of Ghost Beach, in the Sea of Despair, on the planet Farfrom? Even more importantly – who is Reg?
Susan Twist, who played the recurring woman in the BBC TV series, reads this atmospheric original chiller by Niel Bushnell.
Reading produced by Niall Hegarty.
Sound design by Oliver Denman.
Project editor: John Ainsworth.
Executive Producer: Michael Stevens

spoilers:
This was quite big finish at times, very similar to the popular Scherzo, having the dr and ruby following this entity and the closer they get to it the more they forget who they are and get memories of other people. It's revealed that the memories are from 2 people the entity accidentally consumed. It wants to find someone like itslef to stay with as it's the last of its kind. Its a cool idea and we get some spooky moments as the entity accidentally kills the host it attached to. I do feel if the audio was longer we could really explore the entiys connection with the dr. Especially as there both alone in the universe. I do feel we could of spent more time in the locations too, like the beach, the cave and the forest to get the spooky atosmsphere really going. Sadly it just being over an hour we have to get on with the story. While the ending makes sense and it's good the dr helped the entity understand how to connect with people without killing them, I feel it would of been better if the dr allowed the entity to take over him and he found a new planet with a race that could live forever or be able to handle its power so it got a happy ending. This is something that would fit well with the 15th dr. I'm just not sure if he would let the entity go on knowing its still searching and alone.
Susan twists narration is great too, especially as the dr being taken over. She does a good ruby and dr but he her Scottish accent is alittle strong for Ncuti.
