Actor Nabil Shaban will reprise his role as SIL in an original independent Doctor Who spinoff drama from Reeltime Pictures for direct DVD and Blu-Ray release offered on November 4.

Sil and the Devil Seeds of Arodor, written by Philip Martin and directed by Keith Barnfather, will premiere at the Rudolf Steiner House Theatre in London on November 3 and at the QUAD in Derby on November 8.

Fans can get autographs and photos with the entire cast, writer Philip Martin and major crew at the London premiere.

The Derby premiere will feature Martin, Barnfather and actress Sophie Aldred. Known for playing Ace with the seventh Doctor, Aldred portrays alien Mistress Na in the production.

A synopsis of the drama, featuring the alien entrepreneur first seen in the sixth Doctor story Vengeance on Varos, was released:

Sil is worried, very worried, which doesn’t keep his reptilian skin in the best condition! Confined in a cold detention cell on the moon, awaiting a deportation hearing for trial on drugs offences on Earth, he faces a death sentence if the application is successful and he is found guilty. And his employers at the Universal Monetary Fund aren’t pleased either. Not at all. As time runs out and friends desert him, Sil must use all of his devious, vile, underhanded, ruthless, and amoral business acumen to survive. Can he possibly slime his way out of this one?

SIL and the Devil Seeds of Arodor is available for preorder on Amazon.
