'''''"Short Trips"''''' was a label applied to stories and books, published by both [[BBC Books]] and [[Big Finish Productions]]. Early publications released under the ''"Short Trips"'' banner were short story anthologies. The majority of these anthologies were collections of prose issued from [[1998 (releases)|1998]] to [[2009 (releases)|2009]], but Big Finish resurrected the name as a label for audio anthologies and single audio downloads beginning in [[2010 (releases)|2010]].

#[[Short Trips]]
''"Short Trips"'' was a name initially given to three short story anthologies published by [[BBC Books]], starting in [[1999 (releases)|1999]]. The notion was very similar to [[Virgin Books]]' ''[[Virgin Decalogs|Decalog]]'' anthology series. These three new books were published in conjunction with the [[BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures]] and [[BBC Past Doctor Adventures]] book series. Each book contained stories featuring the first eight incarnations of the Doctor. After publishing the anthology ''[[Short Trips and Side Steps]]'' in [[March (releases)|March]] [[2000 (releases)|2000]], BBC Books abandoned short stories for full length prose.

[[Category:Short Trips|*]]
== Big Finish Productions ==
In [[2002 (production)|2002]], [[Big Finish Productions]] obtained the rights to the ''Short Trips'' series. The Big Finish ''Short Trips'' books, like the [[Decalog]] series, are built around themes. These include an annual volume dedicated to Christmas-related tales and one volume dedicated to [[Dalek]] stories. A total of twenty-eight volumes of new material — featuring several hundred stories featuring the first eight Doctors — were published by [[March (releases)|March]] [[2009 (releases)|2009]].
 
On [[17 April (production)|17 April]] [[2009 (production)|2009]], Big Finish announced it was ending the ''Short Trips'' line, since the BBC had not renewed the company's license to issue ''Doctor Who'' stories in print.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bigfinish.com/news/Short-Trips-Announcement|title=Big Finish - News - Short Trips Announcement|date of source=17 April 2009|accessdate=11 September 2009}}</ref> A final ''Short Trips'' volume, a "best-of" collection, subsequently appeared in [[May (releases)|May]] 2009, coinciding with Big Finish briefly making its back stock of earlier ''Short Trips'' books available at a discounted rate.

=== CD releases ===
In less than a year, however, Big Finish revived the ''Short Trips'' format, this time as exclusive-to-audio readings of short stories, most performed by veteran cast members. It began by soliciting stories from fans, though seasoned writers also contributed stories (along with one short story from [[Colin Baker]]). Unlike almost everything else produced by Big Finish, they feature only one actor reading a story, being audiobooks rather than audio dramas. All in the regular series are ''original'' to audio, and have not previously appeared in print.

RealWorld.png

"Short Trips" was a label applied to stories and books, published by both BBC Books and Big Finish Productions. Early publications released under the "Short Trips" banner were short story anthologies. The majority of these anthologies were collections of prose issued from 1998 to 2009, but Big Finish resurrected the name as a label for audio anthologies and single audio downloads beginning in 2010.

BBC Books[[edit] | [edit source]]

"Short Trips" was a name initially given to three short story anthologies published by BBC Books, starting in 1999. The notion was very similar to Virgin Books' Decalog anthology series. These three new books were published in conjunction with the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures and BBC Past Doctor Adventures book series. Each book contained stories featuring the first eight incarnations of the Doctor. After publishing the anthology Short Trips and Side Steps in March 2000, BBC Books abandoned short stories for full length prose.

BBC Audio[[edit] | [edit source]]

BBC Audio also released a few collections of stories adapted from the print books, plus a few originals, in audio format.

# Title Format Stories Released
1 Short Trips Double cassette 6 1998
2 Earth and Beyond 3 7 September 1998
3 Out of the Darkness Audio CD 3 November 1998
4 Tales from the TARDIS: Volume One MP3-CD 9 (+3 novels) 19 July 2004
5 Tales from the TARDIS: Volume Two 3 (+4 novels)
6 Tales from the TARDIS Audio CD 2 2008

Big Finish Productions[[edit] | [edit source]]

In 2002, Big Finish Productions obtained the rights to the Short Trips series. The Big Finish Short Trips books, like the Decalog series, are built around themes. These include an annual volume dedicated to Christmas-related tales and one volume dedicated to Dalek stories. A total of twenty-eight volumes of new material — featuring several hundred stories featuring the first eight Doctors — were published by March 2009.

On 17 April 2009, Big Finish announced it was ending the Short Trips line, since the BBC had not renewed the company's license to issue Doctor Who stories in print.[1] A final Short Trips volume, a "best-of" collection, subsequently appeared in May 2009, coinciding with Big Finish briefly making its back stock of earlier Short Trips books available at a discounted rate.

CD releases[[edit] | [edit source]]

In less than a year, however, Big Finish revived the Short Trips format, this time as exclusive-to-audio readings of short stories, most performed by veteran cast members. It began by soliciting stories from fans, though seasoned writers also contributed stories (along with one short story from Colin Baker). Unlike almost everything else produced by Big Finish, they feature only one actor reading a story, being audiobooks rather than audio dramas. All in the regular series are original to audio, and have not previously appeared in print.

Subscriber exclusives[[edit] | [edit source]]

Main article: Subscriber Short Trips

In addition to the above, several stories taken from the Short Trips books (up to Tweaker) have had readings recorded and made available for special subscriber-only downloads.[2] In December 2014, Big Finish announced a retroactive expansion of the subscriber exclusives with stories written specially for audio (from A Room with No View onwards). The expansion resulted in having four subscriber exclusives per year from 2010 onward.[3] All successive stories were also written specially for audio.
