THE CRUSADE Limited Green & Yellow Translucent Vinyl 2LP Set – Doctor Who

DOCTOR WHOTHE CRUSADE Limited Green & Yellow Translucent Vinyl 2LP Set

Overview:

History must take its course.
Demon Records presents, for the first time on double 140g green and yellow translucent vinyl, the complete narrated TV soundtrack of Doctor Who: The Crusade, with linking narration by William Russell.
The TARDIS travellers materialise in 12th Century Palestine, where English Crusaders are engaged in a holy war with Saladin, ruler of the Saracens. When Barbara (Jacqueline Hill) is abducted in a Saracen ambush, the Doctor (William Hartnell), Vicki (Maureen OBrien) and Ian
(William Russell) find themselves guests at the palace of King Richard the Lionheart (Julian Glover).
First broadcast in March and April 1965, the story has become a noted classic among Doctor Who historical adventures, with a guest cast including Julian Glover and Jean Marsh.
Only two of its four episodes survive in the BBC TV archive, but this vinyl release features the complete audio soundtrack. Includes beautifully illustrated individual sleeves featuring Radio Times-style billings for each episode.
This release is dedicated to the memory of narrator William Russell, who died in June aged 99.
Doctor Who is available now on BBC iPlayer in the UK and on Disney+ in the rest of the world, where available.
