'''''The Eighth Doctor Adventures''''' was an audio series produced by [[Big Finish Productions]] from [[2006 (releases)|2006]] to [[2011 (releases)|2011]] which was revitalized from [[2019 (releases)|2019]] onwards as a range encompassing Big Finish's various [[Eighth Doctor]] stories. | |||

The ''Eighth Doctor Adventures'' was an audio series produced by [[Big Finish Productions]] beginning in [[2006 (releases)|2006]]. It starred the [[Eighth Doctor]], played by [[Paul McGann]], [[Lucie Miller]], played by [[Sheridan Smith]] and [[Tamsin Drew]], played by [[Niky Wardley]]. The audios differed substantially in price and format from [[Main Range|Big Finish's monthly line]]. On the Big Finish podcast, these stories were sometimes informally called "the eighth Doctor and Lucie adventures". | |||

However, the [[Series 2 (8DA)|second]], [[Series 3 (8DA)|third]] and fourth series debuted on CD prior to their radio broadcasts, carrying over to Radio 7's rebranded successor, [[BBC Radio 4 Extra]]. | ||
For the third series, Big Finish introduced a unique release method. The series format changed to a series of 16 25 minute episodes as opposed to 50 minute episodes. In absence of a 2009 TV series, a new episode was released as a download every Saturday evening on a weekly basis, and subscribers would be able to receive the physical CD upon release. However, this release method did not carry over to the fourth season. In the case of the third season, its radio broadcast was heavily condensed and only stories which did not feature returning monsters (''[[Orbis (audio story)|Orbis]]'', ''[[The Beast of Orlok (audio story)|The Beast of Orlok]]'', ''[[The Scapegoat (audio story)|The Scapegoat]]'' and ''[[The Cannibalists (audio story)|The Cannibalists]]'') were presented in edited forms. | For the third series, Big Finish introduced a unique release method.

Additionally, it introduced a third variation on the Eighth Doctor's theme tune composed by [[Nicholas Briggs]], although the [[David Arnold]] arrangement was used during the [[Series 1 (8DA)|first series]]. | ||

{{Main|Dark Eyes (audio series)}} | |||
The next period of ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures'' was the subseries ''[[Dark Eyes (audio series)|Dark Eyes]]''. | |||
''Dark Eyes'' began as a boxset called ''[[Dark Eyes (audio anthology)|Dark Eyes]]'' which was announced to be the "New Eighth Doctor Box Set 1" and released as part of ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures''.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20121115111001/http://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/released/eighth-doctor-adventures</ref> The success of the first boxset led to ''Dark Eyes'' becoming a larger series which was considered its own range, a sequel to ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures''. At this point, ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures'' were renamed ''Classic Doctor Who - Eighth Doctor Adventures''. <ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20131113021420/http://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/v/doctor-who---dark-eyes</ref> However, despite being its own series, ''Dark Eyes'' continued to also be collected under the ''Eighth Doctor Adventures'' banner.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20131031024215/http://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/v/eighth-doctor-adventures</ref> | |||
Following ''Dark Eyes'', with the release of ''[[Doom Coalition (audio series)|Doom Coalition]]'', [[Big Finish Productions]] began a period of releasing new [[Eighth Doctor]] releases entirely separate from the ''Eighth Doctor Adventures'' branding. From 2015 to 2019, the ''Eighth Doctor Adventures'' were adjusted to no longer include ''[[Dark Eyes (audio series)|Dark Eyes]]'', being defined as just the radio-broadcast stories.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20151024055812/http://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/released/eighth-doctor-adventures</ref> | |||

Additionally, ''[[The Eighth Doctor: Time War]]'' began being released. | |||
From 1 April 2019 onwards, the various Eighth Doctor series were once more collected in a range titled ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures'' after a period of there being several separate ranges. ''[[Ravenous (audio series)|Ravenous]]'' continued as a subseries of this range, narratively followed by ''[[Stranded (audio series)|Stranded]]''; unlike in the era of ''Dark Eyes'', these series were more primarily part of ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures'' rather than distinct ranges of their own. ''[[The Eighth Doctor: Time War]]'' also continued as a subseries of this one, with its own subseries ''[[Uncharted (audio series)|Uncharted]]'' being the next Eighth Doctor ongoing boxset narrative after ''Stranded''. | |||
With the redesign of the Big Finish website on 1 April 2019, the stories released in the period following ''Dark Eyes'' were retroactively considered part of ''The Eighth Doctor Adventures'', as well as some earlier releases from the ''[[Special Releases]]'' range. | |||

The Eighth Doctor Adventures was an audio series produced by Big Finish Productions from 2006 to 2011 which was revitalized from 2019 onwards as a range encompassing Big Finish's various Eighth Doctor stories.
BBC Radio era (2007-2011)[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Eighth Doctor Adventures was an audio series produced by Big Finish Productions beginning in 2006. It starred the Eighth Doctor, played by Paul McGann, Lucie Miller, played by Sheridan Smith and Tamsin Drew, played by Niky Wardley. The audios differed substantially in price and format from Big Finish's monthly line. On the Big Finish podcast, these stories were sometimes informally called "the eighth Doctor and Lucie adventures".
The series first debuted on BBC Radio 7 with the first part of Blood of the Daleks on 31 December 2006. However, the second, third and fourth series debuted on CD prior to their radio broadcasts, carrying over to Radio 7's rebranded successor, BBC Radio 4 Extra.
For the third series, Big Finish introduced a unique release method. The series format changed to a series of 16 25 minute episodes as opposed to 50 minute episodes. In absence of a 2009 TV series, a new episode was released as a download every Saturday evening on a weekly basis, and subscribers would be able to receive the physical CD upon release. However, this release method did not carry over to the fourth season. In the case of the third season, its radio broadcast was heavily condensed and only stories which did not feature returning monsters (Orbis, The Beast of Orlok, The Scapegoat and The Cannibalists) were presented in edited forms.
The first four series were notable for driving the Eighth Doctor towards the darker personality as seen in Dark Eyes onwards. Additionally, it introduced a third variation on the Eighth Doctor's theme tune composed by Nicholas Briggs, although the David Arnold arrangement was used during the first series.

With its second series, "The Eighth Doctor BBC7 Stories" were renamed to "The New Eighth Doctor Adventures". The new series was called "Season 2" and the previous one named "Season 1".[2] Although the name was dropped shortly after the end of this series, "The New Eighth Doctor Adventures" remained in use by some fans in order to distinguish this series from the novel series of the same name.

Dark Eyes (2012-2015)[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Main article: Dark Eyes (audio series)
The next period of The Eighth Doctor Adventures was the subseries Dark Eyes.
Dark Eyes began as a boxset called Dark Eyes which was announced to be the "New Eighth Doctor Box Set 1" and released as part of The Eighth Doctor Adventures.[4] The success of the first boxset led to Dark Eyes becoming a larger series which was considered its own range, a sequel to The Eighth Doctor Adventures. At this point, The Eighth Doctor Adventures were renamed Classic Doctor Who - Eighth Doctor Adventures. [5] However, despite being its own series, Dark Eyes continued to also be collected under the Eighth Doctor Adventures banner.[6]
Following Dark Eyes, with the release of Doom Coalition, Big Finish Productions began a period of releasing new Eighth Doctor releases entirely separate from the Eighth Doctor Adventures branding. From 2015 to 2019, the Eighth Doctor Adventures were adjusted to no longer include Dark Eyes, being defined as just the radio-broadcast stories.[7]
The Eighth Doctor Adventures (2015-present)[[edit] | [edit source]]
Missing stories from The Eighth Doctor: Time War.
In the 2015 to 2019 period in which boxsets were released without the Eighth Doctor Adventures branding, the narrative of Dark Eyes was continued in the series Doom Coalition and Ravenous. Additionally, The Eighth Doctor: Time War began being released.
From 1 April 2019 onwards, the various Eighth Doctor series were once more collected in a range titled The Eighth Doctor Adventures after a period of there being several separate ranges. Ravenous continued as a subseries of this range, narratively followed by Stranded; unlike in the era of Dark Eyes, these series were more primarily part of The Eighth Doctor Adventures rather than distinct ranges of their own. The Eighth Doctor: Time War also continued as a subseries of this one, with its own subseries Uncharted being the next Eighth Doctor ongoing boxset narrative after Stranded.
With the redesign of the Big Finish website on 1 April 2019, the stories released in the period following Dark Eyes were retroactively considered part of The Eighth Doctor Adventures, as well as some earlier releases from the Special Releases range.
