Paul McGann returns as the Eighth Doctor with a new companion in five new full-cast audio dramas, due for release in late 2023 from Big Finish.

The TARDIS takes us back in time – to meet a new fellow traveller, and an unexplored era of the Doctor’s timeline. Jaye Griffiths debuts as the noblewoman, Lady Audacity Montague, who is about to be propelled from Regency England into the far future and the war between the Cybermen and Vogans.

Producer David Richardson said: “We’re exploring a different era of the Eighth Doctor’s adventures, when he made a new friend. We’re long before Lucie Miller, the Ravenous, Baker Street or the Time War and we’ve got the wonderful Jaye Griffiths bringing Audacity to life brilliantly. Hang on? (I hear you cry) Didn’t Jaye recently play Hieronyma Friend in Time War: Cass? Ssshh… Spoilers…”

The two adventures in The Eighth Doctor Adventures: Audacity are:

The Devouring by Lisa McMullin (1 part)

The Great Cyber War by Tim Foley (2 parts)

The three adventures in The Eighth Doctor Adventures: In the Bleak Midwinter are:

Twenty-Four Doors in December by John Dorney (1 part)

The Empty Man by Tim Foley (1 part)

Winter of the Demon by Roy Gill (1 part)

Doctor Who – The Eighth Doctor Adventures: Audacity and In the Bleak Midwinter are each available to pre-order for just £19.99 (collector’s edition CD box set + download) or £16.99 (download only) per title, exclusively from http://www.bigfinish.com.

  1. Finding ways to introduce new TARDIS companions in between previously established companions is a challenge that Big Finish never seems to shy away from. It may get overwhelming. But for new actors to somehow have their own adventures with the Doctor, it’s certainly a big attraction.
