Anarchist Sprites (Who / Spooks Crossover)
No. 3. Anarchist Sprites
Eighth Doctor & Charley / Spooks (MI5) Season 4
(All ages)
The Doctor teams up with MI5 to defeat some alien terrorists.
I had to, didn't I? I couldn't find another crossover for my two favourite drama shows, so I had to do it myself. Spooks-wise, set in Season 4 for obvious reasons (Ruth, Zaf for starters). And Charley and Eight are of course a joy to write for - must do that again some time.
I included this at no. 3 because I tried very hard to make it accessible to non-Spooks fans and to give it a tight, Spooks feel as far as possible. Trying to do a three-way split screen at the end probably only works for me, though. Judging from comments, it does seem to have worked for those in unhappy ignorance of Spooks. It is longer than the other stories I plan to post.
With of course slight Doctor/Ruth and much silent jealousy from Harry. Although less than there was going to be as I was getting annoyed re the whole Harry and Ruth situation at the time. I know. I'll have to send a postcard and restore my faith.
Of course, I own neither show and the rights are shared between the BBC, Kudos and Big Finish. Happy just to play with the toys for a bit.

They both collapsed onto the pavement, coughing.
“The TARDIS!” gasped out the Doctor, staring back at the remains of the theatre. The building had been completely flattened; only a few large pieces remaining. He frowned instantly. “That shouldn’t have happened!”
Charley swallowed, her face smeared with dust. “I thought the TARDIS was indestructible. It must be still there!”
Behind them, police sirens were howling in the distance and a small crowd had gathered already, a good half of them either talking into their mobiles or using them to take pictures of the mess. One of the crowd, a tall young man, snapped his phone shut and came marching across towards them.
The Doctor was still staring back at the debris. “I don’t think she is.”
Charley slipped a hand into his, knowing that the ship meant more to him than anything else. “Perhaps the floor caved in?”
“Yes,” he said distractedly. “Perhaps.”
The young Asian man reached them. “Excuse me. I’d advise you two to keep back until we know it’s safe. Can you stand?”
The Doctor nodded and the young man gave Charley a smile as he helped her up. She blushed, noticing that he was decidedly good-looking. He grinned still further and winked at her, before leading them both across the road.

Charley (as I expect you know anyway) is companion to the 8th Doctor in the Big Finish audios. She is wonderful & played with enthusiasm by India Fisher.
(Sadly, the CDs cost £13.99 or £14.99 but you can pick up bargains on Ebay /Amazon etc and Big Finish sell their first eps as 99p taster downloads these days. 'Storm Warning' is the first of their adventures and the best place to start. Sorry if this runs to near advertising - I have NO part in BF [if only]. Charley & Eight are just too good to be missed.)
I have friended you back & will be very interested if you do track down any other Spooks / Doctor Who offerings out there.

If your library has them I'm v. impressed - in the real world I'm a librarian & it's not the sort of thing we would be able to get for people in ours!! But I do hear wonderful things about libraries Down Under! ;-)
