Doctor Who - Rescue

Arriving for Record Store Day 2026, Doctor Who: The Rescue brings a classic adventure from the original era of the beloved series to vinyl for the very first time. Originally broadcast in 1965 and starring William Hartnell as the Doctor, this narrated soundtrack presents the full story across two episodes: “The Powerful Enemy” and “Desperate Measures.”

Set on the distant planet Dido in the 25th century, the story follows the Doctor, Ian, and Barbara as they encounter a crashed spaceship and its surviving crew, including new companion Vicki. As they investigate the mysterious and seemingly dangerous figure known as Koquillion, the travelers are drawn into a tense and emotional mystery that challenges appearances and reveals deeper truths.

This special edition features newly recorded linking narration by Maureen O’Brien, who reprises her role as Vicki, along with an exclusive behind-the-scenes interview. Pressed on striking 140g “Rescue Red” translucent vinyl and housed in a beautifully illustrated sleeve depicting Koquillion, with an inner sleeve including full cast and credits, this release is a must-have for Doctor Who fans and collectors alike.
