[edit] Notes
- This audio play (recorded in 2004) marked the first time that Paul McGann and Daphne Ashbrook had worked together since the 1996 Doctor Who television movie. Ashbrook played Dr. Grace Holloway in that production.
- This is the final audio drama to feature Paul McGann as the current Doctor. The next Eighth Doctor audio drama, Terror Firma, was released in August 2005 by which time he had been succeeded in the role of the Doctor by not only Christopher Eccleston but also David Tennant.
