The Doctor is an alien, the last of the powerful Time Lords. He is an intrepid traveller through time and space, armed only by his incredible intelligence and his fix-anything sonic screwdriver. He travels alone except for the human companions he befriends, briefly sharing his life with them and showing them the astonishing wonders of the universe. He is a protector of mankind, and his mission is to save the planet from frequent and varied alien attacks.

Please note that although the site says that it's available worldwide, in fact it is only available in the North American Direct2Drive store and not the European one.

The reason people outside of the UK are being asked to pay for it is that people in the UK have already paid. Their tax money supports the BBC.

Gosh I wondered what the BBC TV licence fee us UKers pay was going towards! The games do look kind of cool though.
