Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- This is the first The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield anthology produced following the passing of David Warner. Discussions were had with Lisa Bowerman about the future of the range, and it was decided that it should continue.[2]
- James Goss stated that "we wanted the fans and Benny herself to have a nice sit down and a chance to reflect on what else is in the universe" due to Warner's loss,[3] elaborating further in a tweet, "This series is so important to us all. The chance to give Benny a bit of a break before moving on".[4]. He and Tim Foley "thought it would be lovely to give Benny a bit of recognition", hence, her joining the Eternity Club.[3]
- This anthology continues the use of the Doctor Who theme arrangement by Blair Mowat introduced in The Unbound Universe, as according to Goss, "we just weren't ready to let it go".[5]
- The stories were recorded on 3-4 & 9-10 October 2023 at the Soundhouse.[2]
- Story details and cover art for this release were revealed on 10 July 2024.[3]
- This release comes with Behind the Scenes Interviews extras.
