`Hello, I'm the Doctor. And, if you can hear this, then one of us is going to die.'
At the bottom of the sea, in the wreck of a floating radio station, a lost recording has been discovered. After careful restoration, it is played for the first time - to reveal something incredible. It is the voice of the Doctor, broadcasting from Radio Bravo in 1966. He has travelled to Earth in search of the Hush - a terrible weapon that kills, silences and devours anything that makes noise - and has tracked it to a boat crewed by a team of pirate DJs. With the help of feisty Liverpudlian Layla and some groovy pop music, he must trap the Hush and destroy it - before it can escape and destroy the world...
Written specially for audio by James Goss and read by David Tennant, Dead Air features the Doctor as played by David Tennant in the acclaimed hit series from BBC Television.
Dead Air is released on 4th March 2010.
Pre order from our shop for just £8.99 here.

David will be a guest on Radio 4's Desert Island Discs on Sunday 27th December at 11:15am.
The Radio Times says:
"When David Tennant was a boy, he tells Kirsty Young, he kept a little book in which he noted what was in the pop charts each week. Once he was given a big box of chocolates and he entered all of the contents and marked off what he'd eaten and when. He was, he confesses, a geek. But it was as a youthful geek that he announced to his parents that he wanted to be Doctor Who. The rest is time-and-relative-dimensions-in-space history."
