Salvation was the tenth and final story in the Doctor Who: Redacted podcast series, produced by BBC Sounds.

Publisher's summary

Cleo’s been redacted. She finds herself in a weird, empty London full of 9 million ghosts. There’s no Abby to make plans, no Shawna to kick ass. Just Cleo and half an AS level in drama. Oh, and also this weird blue box, with a woman stepping out of it.
