The New Eighth Doctor Adventures


Eighth Doctor Paul McGann is set to return in a new series of eight 50-minute audio Doctor Who episodes early next year, once again featuring the brassy Lucie Miller.
'The last eight, which aired on BBC7 at the beginning of this year before being released on CD, were so well received and we had such fun doing them that we felt compelled to commission some more,' says exec producer, Nick Briggs. This time, the series will be released straight onto CD. 'There's no firm news on a BBC7 airing. It's something we'd be keen on, but even if it does happen, it certainly won't be for some time,' confirms fellow exec producer Jason Haigh-Ellery.
The final release order has yet to be confirmed but titles and authors are as follows: Grand Theft Cosmos by Eddie Robson, an as yet untitled story by Paul Magrs, The Skull of Sobek by Marc Platt, Max Warp by Jonathan Morris, Plastic Population by Jonathan Clements, Dead London by Pat Mills and the the final two episodes in the series are provisionally titles Kidnapped and Vengeance - both by Nicholas Briggs.
This second season of The New Eighth Doctor Adventures are due to be released early in 2008 and will be available to preorder in the near future. (01/08/07)
