Notes
- This anthology was recorded on 27 October and 16 December 2015 and 7 January, 23 January, and 11 March 2016 at Audio Sorcery and The Moat Studios.
- Producer Ian Atkins considered including a Dalek story in the box set, but this was dropped as it could not be suitably integrated into the arc revolving around Jamie. The idea was later revived in The First Doctor: Volume Two, with Steven Taylor in the place of Jamie, in the storyline which became Across the Darkened City. (VOR 100)
- The trailer for this anthology, which is called "A Message from the Second Doctor" according to the chapters for The Edge on the Big Finish mobile app, is based on the promotion trailer for The Web of Fear, which originally aired at the end of The Enemy of the World episode six.
