Previously, the branding BBC Radio Collection was used for release of radio dramas based upon the series: ''[[Exploration Earth]]'', ''[[Slipback]]'', ''[[The Paradise of Death]]'' and ''[[The Ghosts of N-Space (audio story)|The Ghosts of N-Space]]''. Also released under the banner — although technically incorrectly as they were never intended for radio — were edited TV soundtracks taken initially from episodes that had been deleted by the BBC but for which audio tracks survived (i.e. ''[[The Macra Terror]]'' and ''[[The Evil of the Daleks]]'').
