Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • Colonel Chaudhry was the only character to appear in all five audio dramas in the first series.
  • Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart was the only character from the classic series to appear in UNIT.
  • Unusually, the end of each episode of the first series closed with a next time trailer narrated by Nicholas Briggs. This would not become common practice until the new series began airing on television.
  • The series' cover art used an updated UNIT logo, a logo carried over to their first new series appearance in Aliens of London / World War Three.
