This audio adventure starring David Bowie as The Inspector is a little-known gem from the period when the television series was on haitus. Bowie's Inspector had an unearthly combination of iciness and pathos. The thick regret you hear in his voice when he explains that while the offspring will be safe, he can do nothing to save the mother Arachnon... wow. Below you will find just an excerpt. The rest is worth tracking down.
