The Hornet's Nest is a series of audios that sees Tom Baker return as the Fourth Doctor which begins with The Stuff of Nightmares.
A very welcome back to Tom as the Fourth Doctor and he works really well alongside with Richard Franklin's Captain Mike Yates (retired) considering the fact the two never met each other in the TV series, although they came pretty close as Franklin made his regular appearance in the Jon Pertwee swansong Planet of the Spiders but was not in the regeneration scene at the end that saw Pertwee turn into Tom.
Captain Yates' inclusion in The Hornet's Nest came as a result of Nick Courtney being unavailable to reprise his role as the Brigadier and the Brigadier had appeared in two Fourth Doctor TV stories Robot & Terror of the Zygons.
A very good opening chapter to the Hornet's Nest as it is very intriguing listening to the Doctor recounting his most recent adventure about a swarm of psychic alien hornets to Captain Yates and why he needs his help.
A very cute reference to First Doctor companion Dodo as well as some of the Fourth Doctor's TV adventures.
The ending to The Stuff of Nightmares makes me very eager to find out what happens next.
