The First Doctor Boxset is a Big Finish Productions audio drama set based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. It is in the Companion Chronicles format, a "talking book" narrated by the Doctor's companions with guest-star's voices, music and sound effects.

Farewell, Great Macedon

Plot

The First Doctor, Susan, Ian and Barbara arrive in 323 BC, Babylon and befriend the King of Macedon, the ruler of the known world, Alexander the Great. They join Alexander on his travels, along with his generals and officers, including his brave but contemptuous father figure Cleitus, the wise Calanus of India, the nobel young Hephaestion, the Nubian bodyguard Ptolemy, the prophetic priest Iollas and the cunning Seleucus. Over the course of their weeks together, Alexander's greatest friends suffer horrible deaths. Suspicion falls on the Doctor and his companions, who must prove their worth to escape execution. But when the great king himself falls ill, his life is in their hands.

The Fragile Yellow Arc of Fragrance

Plot

The TARDIS arrives on a beautiful utopian world known as Fragrance. The Doctor persuades the peaceful inhabitants to build a filament that could improve his ship's navigation. And Barbara spends time with a young man named Rhythm, who falls in love with her. When his feelings are not reciprocated, his life is forfeit.

Cast

Susan Foreman – Carole Ann Ford
Ian Chesterton – William Russell
Rhythm – John Dorney
Melody/Harmony – Helen Goldwyn

Continuity

In The Masters of Luxor, Barbara recalls visiting Fragrance. She also mentions having seen the Hanging Gardens of Babylon just the day before. However, Ian says their visit to Fragrance lasted a few weeks. Because of this, The Fragile Yellow Arc of Fragrance may actually take place before Farewell, Great Macedon.

Notes

The original version of the script for Farewell, Great Macedon included a scene at the beginning where the TARDIS crew use a machine on the console that quickly teaches them how to speak ancient Greek. To avoid clashing with the now established psychic translation circuits, that scene was not included in this production.
