Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • The day The Eighth Doctor: Time War: Volume Three was released, Big Finish updated the first two volumes' covers to match the style of the new release (both the Doctor Who and the Time War logos). As of the fifth volume, each anthology got their own titles rather than "Volume [X]", and as such the style of further releases was changed again, however older covers remained the same this time around.
  • Although Bliss appeared in all stories in The Eighth Doctor: Time War: Volume One, she wasn't originally planned to be a companion. (VOR 125)
