Additionally, Doctor Who –Short Trips will accompany these adventures, featuring two incarnations of the Master, narrated by Jon Culshaw. The Doctor Who –Short Trips are available to pre-order now from the Big Finish website and will be released in October 2020 on download (£4.99),or as part of a Time Lord Victorious bundle with the trilogy (£26).

The new releases from Big Finish will be available to purchase globally from the Big Finish website at www.bigfinish.com.

Story details for the trilogy are as follows:

  • He Kills Me, He Kills Me Not by Carrie Thompson

On the desert world of Atharna, the Doctor’s life is about to be changed forever. Looking to visit one of the Seven Hundred Wonders of the Universe, the Doctor is quickly embroiled in a web of deceit. Worse than that, this Wonder of the Universe is missing, leading the Doctor to encounter one of his most dangerous and duplicitous adversaries. The Doctor is about to meet Brian.

  • The Enemy of My Enemy by Tracy Ann Baines

The people of Wrax are happy to begin peaceful negotiations with the Dalek Empire. The two species are preparing to engage in an alliance that will last throughout the ages.

The only one who seems to object to this happy union is the Doctor. He knows that you can never trust the Daleks.But more than that, he knows that the Wraxians should never have existed…

  • Mutually Assured Destruction by Lizzie Hopley

The fallout of the great battle. Outnumbered and alone, on a Dalek time-ship careering through the vortex, the Doctor must use all his cunning to survive. As the saucer disintegrates around them, the Doctor is trapped with a crew of increasingly desperate Daleks. Or are the Daleks trapped with him?

Story details for the Doctor Who –Short Trip sare as follows:

  • Master Thief by Sophie Iles

The Master wants to plunder one of the most secure vaults in the universe, the Repository. He’s got a plan, and a deadly new weapon to assist him.However, as the Master quickly discovers, getting in might be easy, but getting away with it might cost him everything. Lesser Evils by Simon Guerrier The Kotturuh have arrived on the planet Alexis to distribute the gift of the death to its inhabitants. The only person standing in their way is a renegade Time Lord, who has sworn to protect the locals. A Time Lord called the Master…

Producer Alfie Shaw said: “Time Lord Victorious has been a glorious delight to work on. James Goss’ vision is astounding, and it’s been such an honour to work with him to bring Big Finish’s part of the project to life.“We have three new authors writing the Eighth Doctor trilogy, pitting him against one of my new favourite characters in Doctor Who, Brian the Ood Assassin, as well old favourites, the Daleks. It all ties into the bigger Time Lord Victorious patchwork, but you can just listen to the McGann Trilogy and enjoy it on its own.”

Time Lord Victorious will see partners including Big Finish Productions, Penguin Random House, Doctor Who Magazine, Titan Comics, Escape Hunt, Eaglemoss Hero Collector, Immersive Everywhere, Maze Theory, BBC Books and BBC Audio, unite to tell a brand new Doctor Who story…
