The Sixth Doctor and Peri Are Back in Four New Big Finish Stories

Separated during the TV story The Trial of a Time Lord and reunited in Big Finish’s The Widow’s Assassin in 2014, The Doctor and Peri are having a series of new adventures in Doctor Who: The Sixth Doctor and Peri volume one. The box set take place after Trial of a Time Lord and the audio story The Rani Elite.

Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant returned as The Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown for the first time in 1999 in the Big Finish audio drama, Doctor Who: Whispers of Terror. Since then, they starred in several adventures together, but it is their first box set.

Deirdre Mullins (Man Down), Hugh Skinner (W1A), Javone Prince (Horrible Histories), Sarah Douglas (Superman II) are joining Baker and Bryant. Doctor Who: The Sixth Doctor and Peri volume one also features the Big Finish debut of Rosie Baker, Colin Baker’s daughter. 

Doctor Who: The Sixth Doctor and Peri volume one is directed and produced by Scott Handcock. The box set is composed of four amazing stories: 

The Headless Ones by James Parsons & Andrew Stirling-Brown

When a distress call from an unknown source threatens to rip the TARDIS from the vortex, the Doctor and Peri arrive in nineteenth-century Africa hoping to find the cause of the disturbance. Instead, they meet a British expedition searching for a long lost tribe: the B’lemyae… better known to the locals as ‘the Headless Ones’.

On the Earth colony world Rusina, the populace strive to be popular. Likes lead to promotion, dislikes lead to demotion – and more recently, something worse. So when the Doctor investigates the truth behind their subscriber-led society, he finds himself about to become very unpopular indeed.

The Vanity Trap by Stuart Manning

Myrna Kendal used to be a Hollywood film star. Now she spends her life reminiscing on chat shows but there is always one unfinished film she refuses to talk about… at least until the TARDIS interrupts a TV interview, and the Doctor and Peri’s appearance stirs up long-forgotten memories.

Conflict Theory by Nev Fountain

Concerned by the Doctor’s increasing over-protectiveness, Peri presents him with an ultimatum: either they seek counselling or she leaves the TARDIS permanently. Reluctant to lose one of his closest friends, the Doctor seeks out one of the finest psychoanalysts in the universe: Dr Sigmund Freud.

Peri actress Nicola Bryant said:

“As always it’s a delight! And it’s very easy to work with my dear friend and colleague Colin Baker. I have been working with him for over half my life – so ‘easy’ is kind of an understatement! “I really adore all of these stories. Interesting, complex and diverse. They all tackle the inevitable change between the Sixth Doctor and Peri that would be reflected in the decades they have known each other. What is really interesting is that Peri has grown but of course the Doctor hasn’t changed at all.” 

Doctor Who: The Sixth Doctor and Peri volume one is available to purchase as a box set  or as a download exclusively from the Big Finish website.
