Big Finish Celebrates 20 Years of New Doctor Who With Anniversary Boxset

To mark 20 years since Doctor Who’s return to TV, Big Finish is releasing a special collection of adventures starring the 21st Century Doctors, available as a single download package.

Doctor Who: Anniversary – A 2005-2025 Doctors Collection is a special package of stories from the new-Who adventures ranges, starring Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, Jodie Whittaker, Sir John Hurt, and Jo Martin, alongside narrated stories featuring the Eleventh and Twelfth Doctors (respectively played on TV by Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi). At a special price, this collection allows you to sample a selection of the finest audio adventures for the Doctors introduced since 2005.

Big Finish’s Nicholas Briggs said:

“One of the best things about working for Big Finish is that there always seems to be a new Doctor, just around the corner. And this collection symbolises some of the most exciting moments which represent that experience for me. For those who are looking for a way to sample our lovely new Doctors, this is an ideal collection.”

The episodes included in the collection are:

The Ninth Doctor Adventures: Sphere of Freedom by Nicholas Briggs

On the Sphere of Freedom, the Doctor is about to shut down an evil Immersive Games business empire. He’s assisted by a valiant galley chef called Nova. But his plan spectacularly fails… And who exactly is Audrey?

The Tenth Doctor Adventures: Infamy of the Zaross by John Dorney

When Jackie Tyler takes a trip to visit her old friend Marge in Norwich, she finds her holiday immediately interrupted in the worst way possible – an alien invasion! The infamous Zaross have come to take over the Earth.

Or have they? After Jackie calls in the Doctor and Rose to deal with the menace, it soon becomes clear that this is a very unusual invasion indeed.

The Doctor is about to uncover one of the most heinous crimes in the history of the galaxy. And if he can’t stop it, an awful lot of people are going to die.

The Eleventh Doctor Chronicles: The Calendar Man by AK Benedict

Answering a cry for help, the Doctor and Amy arrive on a misty colony world – but nobody thinks anything is wrong. Nobody, except for one young woman, hiding in shadows and scribbling in her notebook.

Soon, Amy is on the trail of missing colonists, while the Doctor strides into the fog in search of a fairy-tale.

But time is running out, and the Calendar Man is flicking through the pages of their lives…

The Twelfth Doctor Chronicles: Field Trip by Una McCormack

Osgood gets an offer she can’t resist when the Doctor drops in – her first flight in the TARDIS!

The Doctor is calling on Osgood’s expertise to stop an invasion, but what begins as a fact-finding mission quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Osgood’s intergalactic field trip is about to get very hands-on!

The Thirteenth Doctor Adventures: Vampire Weekend by Tim Foley

It’s Gina’s hen-do and her Maid of Honour has booked a large manor in the Peak District. All her friends should be here – including Yasmin Khan, who’s been mysteriously quiet whilst away on her travels.

But Yaz is bringing a guest. Someone who isn’t invited. Someone who might prove a little disruptive.

The Doctor is joining the celebrations. Unfortunately, so is an ancient enemy…

The War Doctor: The Innocent by Nicholas Briggs

As the Daleks mass their time fleet for a final assault on Gallifrey, something ancient is waiting for them at Omega One. And a sacrifice must be made.

Arch-manipulator and Time Lord strategist Cardinal Ollistra receives shock news of the Doctor’s death.

Meanwhile, on the planet Keska, a parochial war has returned to plague a peaceful civilisation after decades of tranquillity. But how can such a war have any connection with the great Time War which, at any one moment in the whole of eternity, could threaten to tear the universe apart?

If only the Doctor were still alive.

The Fugitive Doctor: Fast Times by Robert Valentine

When the mysterious Division tries to arrest their equally mysterious agent, the Doctor, she evades capture and heads out in search of answers… but trouble is never far behind.

Captured by bounty hunters and imprisoned in a maximum-security hulk ship, the Doctor is about to learn that there’s no time to stand still when you’re a fugitive. And times are about to get very fast indeed.

Anniversary – A 2005-2025 Doctors Collection is now available to pre-order for £39.99 (as a package of digital downloads to own), exclusively from the Big Finish website, and is expected to be released in late November.
