Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor encounters the Last Queen of the Nile in a Doctor Who adventure from Big Finish.

      The Fourth Doctor, Leela, and K9 embark on two new thrilling audio adventures as Big Finish Productions presents The Fourth Doctor Adventures: The Last Queen of the Nile, the concluding Fourth Doctor box set of 2025.

      These final two escapades of the year lead the time travellers to a secluded oil rig facing a silent yet lethal adversary, and to ancient Egypt, where they become entangled in one of history's most renowned romances. The two compelling audio stories in this box set are:

      **Conspiracy of Silence** by Jonathan Morris (2 parts) – This chilling and unforgettable tale features the Doctor and Leela being enlisted by the Brigadier to look into the unexpected loss of communication with a distant oil rig. Upon arrival, they discover nothing – no crew, no previous investigation teams, just a presence known as the Silence.

      **The Last Queen of the Nile** by David K Barnes (4 parts) – When the Doctor, Leela, and K9 land in ancient Egypt near Alexandria, they coincidentally meet Mark Antony. As he joins Cleopatra, the trio realizes they are about to witness one of history’s iconic romances. Unfortunately, this love story poses a threat to Rome's power, and Caesar is urging the senate to initiate war against Egypt. As tragedy looms, the time travellers unexpectedly find themselves caught in the midst of calamity.

Also joining them are Jon Culshaw as the Brigadier, Nicholas Briggs as the Silence, Pippa Bennett-Warner as the enchanting Cleopatra, Michael Lumsden as Mark Antony, Charlie Hayes as Nolan, Blake Ritson as Octavian Caesar, Ben Porter as Canidius, Timothy Blore as Antyllus, and Samantha Lawson as Charmion.

      Tom Baker, the Doctor himself, remarked: “It’s wonderful to engage with such illustrious historical figures, especially Cleopatra and Antony. They are captivating characters who have captivated writers and historians for ages. It's profoundly touching and significant, I believe.”
