Gallifrey was an ongoing series produced by Big Finish Productions centring on Gallifrey and its affairs, both internal and external. As of September 2023[update] , fifteen series have been released.
The main focus of the story was split between Lady President Romana , as portrayed by Lalla Ward , and Leela , as portrayed by Louise Jameson . It also featured the return of Mary Tamm as Romana's first incarnation and the introduction of Juliet Landau as a new incarnation .
The first three series took the form of single releases. Beginning with the fourth series , Gallifrey moved to a boxset format. Series seven and eight saw another format change, each consisting of a single, longer story.
Scott Handcock , producer of Gallifrey , originally thought Enemy Lines , which comprised the eighth series of Gallifrey , would be the end for the audio series, as it "had always been flirting around the edges of the Time War without ever addressing it, so [he] struggled to see what [they] could do to feel fresh without tackling the Time War head-on". (VOR 108 ) Therefore, the next release, Time War: Volume One saw the return of the boxset format and began Gallifrey: Time War , a subseries focused on the epinomyous conflict , which was followed by Gallifrey: War Room , focusing on the War effort after events of Time War: Volume Four .
Publisher's summary
Tales of intrigue and political manoeuvring from the seat of Time Lord power. Join Romana , Leela and K9 as they find enemies on all sides in a delicate game with the fate of Gallifrey hanging in the balance.
History
Following the broadcast of The Invasion of Time in 1978 , Gary Russell read an idea in a fanzine about a whole series being set on Gallifrey starring the Fourth Doctor and a rotating cast of supporting characters and kept this in mind. In 2003 , Russell worked with Lalla Ward , Louise Jameson , John Leeson and Alan Barnes on Big Finish 's Zagreus , amongst whom there was discussion about the potential of the characters of Romana II , Leela and K9 which led to the creation of Gallifrey .
