The Star Men is an audio story from Big Finish. Featuring the Fifth Doctor, Adric, Nyssa and Tegan. This marks the first time that Matthew Waterhouse has reprised Adric for Big Finish in the Main Range after earlier making his Big Finish debut in the The Fifth Doctor Box Set. Appropriately for Adric's Main Range debut, The Star Men was written by Andrew Smith who had introduced Adric in the TV series in Full Circle. Released in January 2017 and the first in a trilogy with this TARDIS crew. Guest stars Peter Guinness as the villain Rovus, the leader of the said Star Men and there was no mistaken his distinctive voice. Mere months before listening to this I re-listened to Guinness' first Big Finish, The Holy Terror and with The Star Men I thought I heard the voice of someone else who was in The Holy Terror but it looks like I was mistaken on that. The other guest stars include Sophie Wu whose character Autumn is rather sweet on Adric much to the latter's obliviousness. The Star Men is a rather enjoyable debut for Adric in the Main Range as the travellers meets the crew of the Johannes Kepler in a mission that brings in the encounter with the Star Men. Sad tragedy as the resolution was reached and what Adric says in response to this was rather ironic due to what would happen to him in Earthshock.
