‘Don’t be alarmed!’ the Doctor cried through gritted tooth, ‘It’s just sucking the life span out of me. Nothing to worry about…’ When the Doctor falls through a split with time he sees himself in the Horizon Gallery. But it’s no normal art gallery, because this one has the best view of the very most difficult wonder of the universe – the Paradox. Tour parties are eager to observe this spectacular, hypnotic part of sky that’s beyond description, and it’s really Penelope’s job to stop people staring up at it for too long. For the Paradox’s beauty drives people mad. THE PHYSICIAN, Amy and Rory are going to discover that the Paradox also includes a huge and frightening creature having a flavor for loss of life… Written specially for audio by Adam Goss, The Art of Loss of life features the physician, Amy and Rory as played by Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill in the acclaimed strike series from BBC Tv. It is read by Raquel Cassidy, who performed Miranda Cleave in the 2011 TV episodes ‘The Rebel Flesh’ and ‘The Nearly People’.
