Scherzo was the fifty-second monthly Doctor Who audio story produced by Big Finish Productions. Released in 2003, this was the first Big Finish audio drama to only feature two cast members, the whole story is carried by Paul McGann and India Fisher as the Eighth Doctor and Charlotte Pollard. This story also serves as the first story of eight that form part of the Divergent Universe arc, although it is the next story where the Doctor and Charley first interact with major elements of the Divergent Universe.

Publisher's summary

Illustrated preview from DWM 338 by Martin Geraghty.

Once upon a time...

There were two friends, and together they travelled the cosmos. They thwarted tyrants and defeated monsters, they righted wrongs wherever they went. They explored the distant future and the distant past, new worlds and galaxies, places beyond imagining.

But every good story has to come to an end.

With no times or places left to explore, all the two friends have now are each other. But maybe that's one voyage too many. Maybe they'll discover things they'd rather have left undisturbed... hidden away in the suffocating, unfeeling, deafening brightness.

Once upon a time. Far, far away.
