Story
In his first-ever Doctor Who novel, Tom Baker’s incredible imagination is given free rein. A story so epic it was originally intended for the big screen, Scratchman is a gripping, white-knuckle thriller almost 40 years in the making. The Doctor, Harry and Sarah Jane Smith arrive at a remote Scottish island when their holiday is cut short by the appearance of strange creatures - hideous scarecrows who are preying on the local population. The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.

The legend dates back to Roman times, at least: a great White Worm, as wide as a man, slithers out of the rocks of the Dark Peak Gap to take animals, sometimes even children, for its food. When the Doctor and Leela arrive in the wilds of Derbyshire only to get caught up in the hunt for a missing girl, they soon discover that the legend of the Worm is very much alive - even now, in 1979. Worse still, it seems that the Doctor isn't the only renegade Time Lord on the trail of this deadly and mysterious Worm....

Publisher's Summary
Tom Baker and Elisabeth Sladen star in this classic audio adventure from 1976.
The TARDIS' arrival on a lonely stretch of beach at night is closely followed by a slithering sound and a chilling roar. It marks the beginning of a terrifying adventure on present-day Earth for the Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith.
The deadly Pescatons have arrived! Refugees from their own dying planet, these towering amphibians are led by the mighty Zor, whom the Doctor has encountered before. Soon the creatures have invaded London, wreaking death and destruction. The Doctor and Sarah must draw upon all their reserves of courage and ingenuity.
Doctor Who and the Pescatons is the original made-for-audio Doctor Who adventure, first released on vinyl LP in 1976. In an exclusive bonus interview, the late Elisabeth Sladen recalls her portrayal of the ever-popular Sarah Jane Smith and what it was like to be part of the Doctor Who team in the 1970s.

Great cast, lacklustre script
The tiny cast put in a great performance but are hampered by a script that just isn't very good and is too keen to wrap itself up as quickly as possible. Not entirely surprising considering this was the first proper outing for Doctor Who on audio but still a disappointment. The Target novelisation is leagues better than the source material. The Liz Sladen interview is a really nice extra, though.

First audio book and I loved it
I had never listened to audiobooks before, so I was pretty excited for this one.
The story was shorter than I expected but it was quite interesting and it kept me hooked.
I also enjoyed the interview with Elisabeth Sladen afterwards, very funny and amazing woman

Misleading
The story only takes up 50% of the running time, the rest is padding that I had no interest in. TB's narration is excellent and the story is quite enjoyable, but not great. It needed to be longer, as it feels like the cliff notes of an episode.
