Masterplan was the third full cast audio story in the Dark Eyes 3 audio anthology released in 2014 by Big Finish Productions. It starred Paul McGann as the Doctor and Nicola Walker as Liv Chenka.

Publisher's summary

When the Doctor decides to stop a war, the last thing he expects is to be trapped aboard a doomed spaceship with his oldest friend — who just happens to also be his oldest enemy. The Reborn Master is just as surprised: this isn't part of his master plan.

Meanwhile, Liv and Sally tiptoe around a brilliant and dangerous man. Professor Markus Schriver is a genius in the field of teleportation and neural manipulation. Unfortunately, he is also insane.

The clock is ticking, and not everyone can make it out alive...

Notes

Continuity

• The Celestial Intervention Agency allowed the Master to read up on the Doctor's past. He mentions the fates of Lucie Miller, Tamsin Drew and Alex Campbell. (AUDIO: To the Death)
• Liv tells Sally that the Master doesn't really need her but just someone to hold his test tubes and tell him how wonderful he is. This closely resembles what the Brigadier once told the Doctor about his companions. (TV: Terror of the Autons)
• The Doctor mentions his friendship with Harry Houdini. (AUDIO: Smoke and Mirrors)
• Shriver gets a job offer from a company in Orion. (AUDIO: Eye of Darkeness)
