The Masters of Luxor could conceivably be called the first ever lost story in Doctor Who history. Written by Anthony Coburn, it was intended to be the second serial, ultimately rejected in favour of The Daleks (or The Mutants, if you prefer). For the next part of the third season of The Lost Stories, Big Finish has moved on from the Sixth Doctor and back to the First: Nigel Robinson adapts Coburn’s script, and William Russell and Carole Ann Ford perform it in a third-person “enhanced audiobook” format, in the style of 2010’s The First Doctor Box Set. The first thing that strikes the listener of The Masters of Luxor is its amazing scale — a scale one suspects would have had to be rendered in a few model shots had the story been made in the 1960s. The story opens with the TARDIS being drawn off course by a mysterious signal, bringing it to a citadel on an unknown planet in a distant galaxy. The TARDIS even flies around this citadel, something we would only see in a scant few later stories, perhaps most notably Delta and the Bannermen and The Runaway Bride. The first two episodes, especially, give us a magnificent series of descriptions of this citadel and its environs, as Ian and Susan slowly explore it.

This version has been adapted for audiobook, rather than a full cast drama, with Carole Ann Ford (original Susan) and William Russell (original Ian) providing the dialogue and narration for their own characters, as well as for The Doctor and Barbara. And doing a brilliant job of the different pitches of voice. They are joined by Joseph Kloska, who plays the Perfect One, Tabon, and the various androids (who are all somewhat related anyway). Nigel Robinson has adapted Anthony Coburn's original script to an audiobook format, and in doing so has removed some of the religious content (which probably would have been removed from the original anyway, had it gone to production). He has also moved it from its early first season slot to some point prior to Susan's departure, but after [a:Moris Farhi|96332|Moris Farhi|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1475486803p2/96332.jpg]'s [b:Doctor Who: Farewell, Great Macedon|24073629|Doctor Who Farewell, Great Macedon|Moris Farhi|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1419523809l/24073629._SX50_.jpg|62696586], an earlier release in the Lost Stories.

A somewhat dated story, but a really superb adaptation. ( )
