Young Winston by Paul Morris
London, 1899. After spending time in warzones abroad, Winston Churchill
considers a Parliamentary career. But a memento from his visit to Cuba,
four years earlier, returns to haunt him. Across the city, the Great
Detective has a mysterious caller, all the way from Havana. As ruthless
mercenaries wield alien powers, young Winston and Madame Vastra learn
they have a mutual friend - an eccentric young man, sporting a bowtie…
Human Conflict by Iain McLaughlin
1941. The Prime Minister has much on his mind as London reels from the
Blitz. When a daring mission to discover Nazi secrets bears unexpected
results, Churchill heads north to retrieve technology that could win the
war. But an old ally is set against his intent. Weary from his own
people’s conflict, the Doctor knows that some weapons should never enter
the field of human conflict.
I Was Churchill's Double by Alan Barnes
Alexandra Palace, 1942. Strange television signals show a paranoid
Churchill urging on the resistance in German-occupied Britain. A man in a
battered leather jacket makes a guest appearance. The broadcasts come
from another world, one where the country is now part of the Kaiser’s
Empire. Of course, the Doctor is involved, and while Churchill claims to
understand the notion of ‘alternative histories’, he never expected to
be part of one.
Churchill Victorious by Robert Khan & Tom Salinsky
VE Day, 1945. The war is over. The PM has seen the crowds and made his
speech. Now he wishes to soak up the atmosphere, moving incognito among
his fellow countrymen. But an alien interloper lurks in a backstreet
tavern, and ‘William Churchyard’ must lead a few plucky Londoners into
one more fight. The Doctor is in trouble, and at the time of his
greatest victory, Churchill also faces his greatest danger...
