Some really great body horror no bubble-warp limitations and longer chapters than normal really gave it more of an adult feel. Marter becomes one of the best writers in the whole range. , Sarah and Harry find themselves on a seemingly deserted space station countless years in the future. They soon discover that they are far from being alone. Of all the regular Target writers I found Ian's prose to be one of the best. Some of his descriptions of the Wirrn larva are absolutely alive with bubbling sizzling threat. To be honest as The Doctor, Sarah and Harry find themselves on a seemingly deserted space station countless years in the future. To be honest as an eight year old I was petrified of the green bubble-wrap bits of the mutating commander Noah so I'm pretty thankful that they didn't achieve the seething monstrosity that Marter delivers. The action scenes are particularly well done. Libri's comedy tv death becomes something quite brutal and vicious. Looking back at the book now I do miss some of the funnier lines, probably mainly Robert Holmes at his witty best. Whether Marter actively took them out or more likely they were late script editions that weren't in Marter's research material, I don't know. It's easy to drop them back in from memory though, so the witty little knitter and naval jokes can live again for those that really care. Script differences aside Marter has a lot of fun with the space station Nerva's on board technology eg moving walkways and mentally activated hatchways etc. Great stuff from one of the all time classic Doctor Who seasons and come on And all written by the man himself.

There are some surprisingly gruesome scenes depicted here. Also, the premise of the novel is quite memorable. Slight problem: an alien entity has entered the Ark and switched off the alarm clock, so to speak. Not cool. Fortunately, Doctor Who arrives to put an end to the status quo. Filled with wacky science, a lot of running to and fro and absolutely zero character development, The Ark in Space is probably one of the more interesting Doctor Who adventures because of its unique setting and really icky aliens.

The story includes a minor call back or two to the previous installment, but for the most p Whenever I'm asked by new Who fans for a good starting point to watch classic Doctor Who , I don't point to "An Unearthly Child" but instead to Robert Holmes' classic serial, "The Ark In Space. The story includes a minor call back or two to the previous installment, but for the most part it's a self-contained horror story set in the near future. Promising Harry a quick trip to the moon to prove the TARDIS is what the Doctor says it is, our trio instead ends up in the far future thanks to Harry's twisting the helmic regulator a bit too much. The Doctor, Sarah and Harry arrive on a future space station that is home to the final remnants of humanity in suspended animation waiting their chance to awaken and begin the conquering the Earth again. But something has gone wrong and humanity has overslept. What's gone wrong is the Wirrin, an insect race that can survive in deep space and has journeyed to the ark seeking our humanity. The Wirrin are also driven to survive and are looking for a new home -- and the ark and the Earth look like just the right place to get started. If you didn't know that Holmes had to hastily create a new script using the already created sets for space station because another script feel through, odds are you wouldn't notice during the four episodes of this story. Ian Marter's novelization of the story is one of his most straight-forward, following Holmes' original script and storyline faithfully. There are some embellishments for the printed page, such as the additional r in the name of the Wirrrin and some of the descriptions of the Wirrrin taking over their human hosts are bit more graphic than the show could have got away with at the time or, quite frankly, could get away with today. Marter drops a few lines that were possibly ad-libbed on the set or that don't present his character of Harry in the best of lights. He also makes the Wirrin a bit more horrifying than they are on our screens -- and that's saying a bit since the concept of the Wirrin is pretty chilling when you stop to think about it. It all adds up to one of the better entries from the Target lines of Doctor Who adaptations. A lot of the Target novels make me want to go back and review the original story again. The audiobook is read by Jon Culshaw, who made quite a name for himself imitating the fourth Doctor as part of the "Dead Ringers" crew in the UK. If you haven't heard some of those bits, I recommend them. As a Doctor Who fans, I enjoyed them immensely Culshaw uses his fourth Doctor imitation in the audio novel and the first time I heard it, it felt like they'd sampled 's lines from the original serial and dropped them in here. Culshaw's reading of the story is spot-on, adding to the atmosphere of the novel. Marter expanded on the sequence of Sarah crawling through the duct work of the station and Culshaw really runs with it here. It's one of the most suspenseful and riveting parts of this audiobook. I tend to listen to these audiobooks while jogging and I wouldn't be shocked if my speed picked up a bit during this portion of the story even knowing the outcome already. When the Doctor Who audiobook line returned earlier this year, I was thrilled at the selection of stories that were coming our way. It's a great combination of a great original story by Robert Holmes, a superlative adaptation by Ian Marter and a great performance by Jon Cullshaw. Highly recommended. Oct 21, Nicholas Whyte added it. He both adds and subtracts from the TV show here. He subtracts, somewhat to my surprise, most of the humorous lines of dialogue - specifically the Doctor's line "Well, my doctorate is purely honorary, and Harry here is only qualified to work on sailors. Sometimes it's just little things, like the Doctor opening a door on the space station by thinking at it. There's also Sarah's journey through the ventilation duct, through the mass of Wirrrn another thing added by Marter is an extra "r" in the name of the monster. He also adds graphical nastiness and violence. Noah's head explodes, revealing the Wirrrn within. Rogin's body is "burnt to a colourless crystal". Doctor Who and the Ark in Space is a really good read. With his very first attempt, he transforms the clinical body horror of the TV version of "The Ark in Space" into something even more frightening and gory It's no wonder Steven Moffat gushes about this story in his introduction Jul 01, Ben Goodridge rated it liked it. I'm giving this one three stars because I read it at the beach and books are always better when you read them at the beach. Apr 10, Christian Petrie rated it it was amazing Shelves: doctor-who. .

This is a top class story and a true classic with Tom Baker really establishing himself as an incredible Doctor in only his second story. He still maintains some wonderful humour but is more serious and deep thinking than in his first adventure. Looking for something to watch?

The highest rated episode in terms of viewing audience is Part Four of City of Death. The story was edited and condensed into a single omnibus edition, broadcast at pm on 20 August [9] and reached 8. Paul Cornell , Martin Day , and Keith Topping gave the serial a favourable review in The Discontinuity Guide , writing, " The Ark in Space rises above the dodginess of the effects by treating its themes so seriously it's a possible influence on Alien ". Howe and Stephen James Walker wrote that the story "contains some of the most horrific material to have been featured in the series up to this point". They praised the set design and the dramatic tension, as well as the effects of the Wirrn. Mulkern also praised the cast. Salmon wrote that the concept of the Wirrn were so terrifying that the poor effects did not matter. In an analysis of apocalyptic themes in Doctor Who , academic Andrew Crome highlighted the explicit religious influences on the writing of The Ark in Space. He considered the eponymous Ark to be an analogue of the Biblical story of Noah's Ark , the ancient flood myth related in the Book of Genesis , and that the naming of the Nerva Beacon commander as Noah was an overtly Biblical allusion. Crome also drew parallels between the commandment given by God to Man in Genesis — "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth" — and the High Minister's rousing speech to the humans awakening from cyogenic sleep on Nerva Beacon:. You will return to an Earth purified by flame… If it be arid, you must make it flourish, if it be stony, you must make it fertile. According to Crome, the catastrophe of solar flares burning the Earth was represented in the Ark in Space as a purifying event which led to the renewal of human society, drawing heavily on the Genesis flood narrative.

This has to be one of the best adaptions of a Doctor Who televised episode. It helps that it was already a good story to begin with, but Ian Marter did an excellent job of transferring it over to the written form. They find out that it is a cryogenic storage for the human race, but has been delayed by an outside force. What Ian Marter does with this plot is enhance with descriptions you would not find on the televised show, and reduces This has to be one of the best adaptions of a Doctor Who televised episode. What Ian Marter does with this plot is enhance with descriptions you would not find on the televised show, and reduces technobabble dialog to brief one sentence descriptions. By doing this he enhances the descriptive nature of the Wrinn. Or more precisely, the Wrinn conversion process which is more than the green bubble wrap shown on TV. It is this descriptive process that elevates this among the Target books. I was very surprised it was not cut. Also, the nature of his writing is a breath of fresh air compared to the books of the same period. Out of the Target books so far, I do highly recommend this one. Nov 03, Travis rated it it was amazing Shelves: doctor-who. One of the classics. The fourth Doctor, Harry and Sarah are stuck on a massive space station with a group of colonists and a swarm of enormous, hungry space bugs. Strong characterization and a great feeling of suspense and menace. Jun 11, Andy Hickman rated it really liked it. Enjoyable read. The novelisation of the TV series. For a moment, his companions' discomfort gave way to amazement. Mar 08, Tom Jones rated it really liked it Shelves: target-books. A classic TV story. Goes to show you don't need budget to deliver. The novelisation isn't on the level with the story, some issues but I enjoy it. Was one of the first Doctor Who book I ever read. Nov 24, Julian White rated it it was ok. Curiously uninvolving novelisation - disappointingly as it's by Ian Marter who played Harry Sullivan. A lot seems to be going on but not much really gets done Jun 13, Ian rated it really liked it Shelves: sci-fi. Love this story and the TV serial it is based on. A fun adventure with monsters a few expansive sci fi ideas woven in. Mar 03, Debby Kean rated it really liked it Shelves: sf , brilliant , pretty-good. It's Classic Who, very short and simple, but at the same time, very moving! Jul 26, Damon Habbin rated it really liked it. Ian Marter is a great writer and this book is great adds to the original story. Aug 22, Ted rated it really liked it Shelves: doctor-who. Good story of danger in confined spaces. May 07, Joel rated it it was ok. This story was ruined for me due to the Harry Sullivan character. All that "old girl" type of banter got tired real fast. That being said it was a solid story, the fourth Doctor kicks ass as always and Sarah was pretty groovy getting it done as well. Frickn Harry though There seems to be a never ending stream of Doctor Who books coming out some better than others. Well this is part of a series of reissues of classics from the original Target publishing range with new revisions and introductions. And boy have they chosen some great titles I cannot really tell you much as I do not remember the aired episode and only vaguely the first time around paperback but the new edition is clean and tidy and easy to read - to be honest too easy to read as I read it in a sing There seems to be a never ending stream of Doctor Who books coming out some better than others. And boy have they chosen some great titles I cannot really tell you much as I do not remember the aired episode and only vaguely the first time around paperback but the new edition is clean and tidy and easy to read - to be honest too easy to read as I read it in a single Sunday afternoon - I think it was great and I cannot wait to read more from the series - it may not suit the new generation of fans who only know the latest crop of Doctors and the new style of high budget productions - but this to be as said in the introduction captures the essence of why the classic Doctor Who episodes were all about Jul 24, Mel rated it really liked it Shelves: 20th-century- fiction , childrens , doctor-who. It was nice to read a Target novelisation by someone other than Terrance Dicks. Especially that this one was by the actor who played Harry Sullivan. How different for a Who novel. The writing was definitely better. The description of the alien taking over was much more impressive than the green bubble wrap used on the show! The description of Sarah crawling through the tunnels was also much scarier. It was also funny to see that Ha It was nice to read a Target novelisation by someone other than Terrance Dicks. But when station commander Noah is revived, he becomes suspicious of the newcomers. The commander, Noah is recusitated, but has an unwanted encounter with the invader on board Nerva Beacon. Glorious sci fi horror, Ark in Space is an episode of real quality. Vira is a terrific character, I loved the misunderstandings about language, the performance of Wendy Williams is absolutely wonderful, one of the best I can remember. The monster is a good one, I love how green it is, a great colour for a monster. I know it's bubble wrap, but it looks ok, the creature in the solar stack looked excellent. Harry's line 'we found it in a cupboard,' is one of the best episodes in the show's history, hilarious, but delivered in magical style by Matter. Looking for something to watch?
