The Lost Resort and Other Stories is an anthology release from Big Finish with the Fifth Doctor, Nyssa, Adric and March and it starts with ...The Lost Resort
The Lost Resort also featured the ghost of Adric, yes the ghost of Adric.
Written by AK Benedict.
The Doctor, Nyssa, Tegan and Marc arrived at the Welkin Sanatorium on the planetoid Soresia.
What essentially this is about the patients there who had lived long lives but becomes less and less of what they used to be.
Given this is Doctor Who, I won't go into whether this is Adric in ghostly form but would say his very presence this way does bring haunting memories for the Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan of how they lost him in Earthshock while the overall premise is quite thought provoking.
The resolution is not bad.
I had thought the character of Fabrico was played by Amy Pemberton who had at one time been Big Finish Seventh Doctor companion Sally Morgan and later on played Gideon in fellow time travel series Legends of Tomorrow.
However Pemberton wasn't Fabrico as she was instead played by Julia Sandiford.
Enjoyable interviews I listened to about The Lost Resort including talking about the impact of ghost Adric to those who knew him and it was from listening to these interviews that Aether was played by Anna Barry and she had been in TV Doctor Who that of Day of the Daleks playing Anat.
