Publisher's summary
It's Haunted Makeovers! The home improvement show with a spooky twist.
The Noble family are hoping to cast out a few spirits along with the old bathroom suite, as presenter Justin joins Donna, Wilf, Sylvia and the Doctor for the latest edition of his reality TV series.
Of course, Justin knows that any supernatural phenomena can be faked. Ghosts can't possibly be real.
Can they..?

Notes
- The idea of the Doctor working with a group of supernatural investigators is extremely similar to the unproduced series 4 episode Century House, which would have paired the Tenth Doctor up with the hosts of the paranormal reality programme Most Haunted. Unlike Century House, however, No Place more directly involved Donna Noble and her family.
- This story was recorded on 26 September 2018 at The Moat Studios.
- A vinyl version was released at selective Asda stores on 25 September 2020.
- "No place" is a literal translation of the word "Utopia", which was also the title of a Tenth Doctor story.
