The Broken World (audio story)

The Broken World was the first release in the Minister of Chance series. It was written by Dan Freeman and introduced Julian Wadham as the Second Minister of Chance, Lauren Crace as Kitty, Jenny Agutter as Professor Cantha, Paul McGann as Durian and Sylvester McCoy as the Witch Prime.   

Part 1
Following the invasion of Tanto, things have changed little at the Traveller's Rest Inn in the capital, Tantillion. The barmaid, Kitty, is still abusing customers and starting fights, and the regulars are still selflessly preventing the collapse of the bar. However, when a cloaked stranger arrives, apparently unaware of the invasion, Kitty's curiosity is piqued. Meanwhile at his new lodgings in the castle, Ambassador Durian receives an unwelcome visitor of his own.

Part 2
Kitty visits Professor Cantha at her secret hideout in the forest, but theirs are not the only footsteps on the fallen leaves of Tanto. Meanwhile, Ambassador Durian receives some interesting information, and a promotion...

Part 3
Durian makes Professor Cantha an offer she can't refuse. The Minister creates a miraculous doorway in the forest, and passes through it onto the Frost Bridge between worlds. He tells Kitty to go home, which she of course does immediately with a skip and a polite farewell. On Tanto, a Sezian patrol interrogating villagers comes up against a new enemy, one that does not go on foot...
