Starfall is the penultimate part of the Demon Quest audio story arc featuring the Fourth Doctor, Mike Yates and Mrs Wibbsey
Very enjoyable with the Doctor, Mike and Mrs Wibbsey in 1976 New York where they encounter a girl Alice who gets superpowers after touching a meteorite
An enjoyable tale exploring the superhero premise along with the presence of cultists and that revelation of legendary actress Mimsy Loyne.
I recently got to listen to Starfall again this time on BBC Radio 4 Extra.
What is remarkable about listening to Starfall now in contrast to listening to it years before is that I found how similar it is to the recent 2016 Christmas Special The Return of Doctor Mysterio which came on a couple of days before.
Both takes place in Manhattan, and themed on comic books and superheroes and both have references to Superman.
