Revision as of 20:11, 1 May 2018
The Conscript was the third audio story in the anthology The Eighth Doctor: The Time War 1. It starred Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor.
Publisher's summary
Cardinal Ollistra has a new tactic to persuade the Doctor to join his people’s fight. With his friends locked away, he has been conscripted alongside fellow Gallifreyans to train for the front lines of battle.
Commandant Harlan has a reputation – his camp’s regime is harsh. He believes the Time Lords must adapt to win this war, but the Doctor is not easily intimidated.
Can there be any place for dissent when the Time War looms so close?
