"Back to the Powell Estate, where the Doctor’s past returns to haunt him, and out into the universe where enemies old and new are waiting,” reads a synopsis for Doctor Who – The Ninth Doctor Adventures, out later this year.
Matt Fitton, the show’s producer has said that the episodes will slot “neatly into that 2005 series”, featuring “more Jackie Tyler, more Powell Estate, plus friends and enemies old and new through time and space”.
Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper are reuniting under the Doctor Who umbrella for the first time in 20 years.
Now, the pair will reunite for the first time in two decades to front a new Doctor Who audio drama series.
Eccleston played the ninth incarnation of the much-loved Time Lord and Piper played his companion, Rose Tyler, in the revived series in 2005.
