Jago & Litefoot Series 2

By: Mark Morris, Jonathan Morris, Andy Lane, Justin Richards

Narrated by: Christopher Benjamin, Trevor Baxter, Conrad Asquith, Lisa Bowerman

The continuing adventure of Henry Gordon Jago and George Litefoot, characters first introduced on television in Doctor Who: The Talons of Weng-Chiang (1977), who have become Infernal Investigators, solving mysteries involving paranormal or alien phenomena in 1880s London. This release features four full-cast audio dramas plus a behind-the-scenes documentary:

• 2.1 'Litefoot and Sanders'. Written by Justin Richards and directed by Lisa Bowerman. Featuring Chloe Howman. Women are being killed on the streets of London, and the evidence points to it being the work of a vicious vampire. This should be a case for Jago and Litefoot, but - to the astonishment of Jago - the esteemed investigators of infernal incidents have gone their separate ways.
• 2.2 'The Necropolis Express'. Written by Mark Morris and directed by Lisa Bowerman. Featuring Vernon Dobtcheff. Strange things are happening in the pauper's graveyard at Charnel's End. There are hideous creatures in the undergrowth, a mysterious light emanating from the church, and something deadly beneath the ground itself. Someone from Litefoot's past has come back to haunt him, and things may never be the same again....
• 2.3 'The Theatre of Dreams'. Written by Jonathan Morris and directed by Lisa Bowerman. Featuring Duncan Wisbey, Jennie Stoller, Alex Mallinson. 'Roll up, gentlemen and ladies, roll up! Welcome to Deuteronomy's Theatre de Fantasie, the show where your dreams come true!' Henry Gordon Jago believes he has made a killer booking for the New Regency Theatre. Unfortunately, he is absolutely correct.
• 2.4 'The Ruthven Inheritance'. Written by Andy Lane and directed by Lisa Bowerman. Featuring Duncan Wisbey and Simon Williams. The pathology skills of Professor Litefoot and Dr Sacker are called upon by Lord Ruthven, who asks them to catalogue a cache of bones beneath his country estate. And so begins the endgame...as a plan long laid comes to its glorious fruition.

More adventures with the Victorian investigators

I loved it. This second series is a great continuation of the Jago and Litefoot story!

a journey with in itself.

I love it. I wish their were more books like this one. I love the performance and was able to pay attention.

A good audio book - could have been great

A well written, and well performed, audio book. Unfortunately all the Jago & Litefoot audio audio books appear to contain approximately an hour of 'bloat' content.

Jago and Litefoot - Act 2

Our intrepid investigators return for another interconnected quartet of fantastical mysteries. This time we have a distinctly supernatural flair as our pair match wits with a master vampire! Also, they deal with a theatrical act that seems to grant your fondest dreams. We also are on a train of the dead and dealing with subterranean killers. All in a days work for our heroes.

These two characters originally appeared in the Doctor Who episode The Talons Of Weng Chiang in the 1970's. The audience never forgot them. Finally in the 2000's they get their opportunities to shine in multiple series by Big Finish. It's like visiting old friends. Recommended
