The Elite is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who.

Plot

A decade ago, a visitor crashed on a primitive alien world. Calling himself an emissary of the gods, he brought knowledge, technology, order and religion. Setting himself up as their leader, this mysterious High Priest has a long term plan. But his motivations change when a familiar face arrives in a familiar blue box.
