The Second Oldest Question was the tenth story of the ninth season of Big Finish Productions' Short Trips series.
Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The oldest question in the universe has haunted the Doctor ever since he left Gallifrey. A question that only a few know the answer to. A question that must never be answered.
This isn't the story of that question. This is the story of the second oldest question. A question that has plagued humanity for millennia. A question which determines whether someone can live or die. A question that must be answered.
