The Island of Dr Moreau

The Island of Dr Moreau is the fourth of six full-cast adaptations in 2017 of the works of British Sci-Fi writer extraordinaire Herbert George Wells. Shipwrecked in the South Pacific, Edward Prendick finds unlikely salvation in the company of Montgomery - a disgraced medic bound for distant shores, in charge of an unusual cargo. Their destination is a mysterious jungle isle where the night is split by terrible cries, and where inhuman creatures walk upright on two legs. When Prendick meets the man who lays down the law, he realises that his nightmare is only just beginning. For this is…The Island of Doctor Moreau. Star Ronald Pickup is one of our most regarded British actors, his recent appearances in The Crown just the latest in a full career ranging from Holby City to A Time to Dance, from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time to Einstein. John Hefferman was most recently seen in the BBC epics Dickensian, Ripper Street and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. Director and script writer Ken Bentley is one of Big Finish’s primary directors, covering everything from significant Doctor Who titles to our acclaimed Survivors and The Avengers releases.
