Curiosity Shop was the third and final story in the audio anthology All of Time and Space, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by James Goss and featured Jacob Dudman as the Eleventh Doctor and Safiyya Ingar as Valarie Lockwood.
Publisher's summary
Mr Foreman owns a junkyard. He doesn't get many visitors. In fact, all anyone ever seems interested in is Barbara.
One woman informs Mr Foreman she knows the truth about Barbara, that she went on impossible adventures with a man called the Doctor. This woman, this Valarie, will do anything to be reunited with Barbara and the Doctor. Even if it kills her.
Plot
Valarie visits Mr Foreman's junkyard to look at the TARDIS (which he calls "Barbara") and, exchanging her spinal interlink for money, she tells him that it is a spaceship and that she and the Doctor were in it when they were dragged to the war above this planet after answering a telephone call. The Doctor altered a weapon which would wipe out numerous star systems to emit an electromagnetic pulse which disabled the battle fleets as well as the TARDIS and Valarie. She awoke on the planet and has been looking for the Doctor and the TARDIS since then.
Valarie gives Mr Foreman a tendon enhancer from her left leg and tells him about how the Doctor launched a protest against a government whilst she released the political prisoners and cleared the city of its air pollution. This caused a glitch with the militia's weapons, leading them to join the opposition and the governor to leave in a shuttle. Mr Foreman does not believe in the Doctor, however. The two battle fleets start to wake up and Valarie returns to Mr Foreman the next day, telling him about how the Doctor unplugged the holographic Overseer and forced a civilisation to confront their actions and situation without their kind words. Some of the spaceships start falling from the sky.
