The Wrong Woman was the second story in the audio anthology Dalek Universe 1, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by John Dorney and featured David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor, Jane Slavin as Anya Kingdom and Joe Sims as Mark Seven.

Publisher's summary

The team’s investigations have taken an unexpected turn - but the signs all still point to Sheldrake. With the clock ticking down to the launch of the time tunnels, the Doctor, Anya and Mark split up... but soon discover how hard it is to fight a foe who can always keep one step ahead of you.

But stopping him is only half the battle. The Doctor says that time can be rewritten - and Anya is searching for redemption. Can she put history back on track? Or is the Doctor’s future never going to be the same again?

Plot

Cast

• The Doctor - David Tennant
• Anya Kingdom - Jane Slavin
• Mark Seven - Joe Sims
• Esther Malkin - Juliet Aubrey
• George Sheldrake - Mark Gatiss
• The Newcomer - Gemma Whelan
• The Pastor / Gorlan - Chris Jarman

References

• Gorlans can rip through metal and cables and are slower than humans. Mark describes them as "very aggressive."
• A Tyrannosaurus rex can break deadlock sealed glass.
• The Sheldrake building is protected by a time lock, which can be passed through by two people experiencing time shifts, or "glitches."
• The Newcomer uses a psychic cloak to disguise herself as the Pastor and Doctor.
• The chronoclasm brings dinosaurs, volcanos, Roman legions, Cavemen, and spaceships all at once. The Gorlans affected begin to evolve and devolve. It is essentially a "time explosion" which destroys the Time Vortex and theoretically also causality.
• The Newcomer states she's been erasing bits of her past and so cannot tell what regeneration she's in, but also implies she's encountered the Doctor 38 times.
• The Doctor references Mr Tickle and Spock only to learn that both have fallen into obscurity by the 41st century. Though Mark understands a reference to Pinocchio.
• The Doctor uses vortex energy to save himself and Anya.
• Temporal Witness Relocation was developed by Sheldrake and generates a time bubble. A Dalek fires its weapon in the bubble and the engergy destroys the systems.
