'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the forty-sixth [[Big Finish Doctor Who audio stories|monthly ''Doctor Who'' audio story]] produced by [[Big Finish Productions]]. Released in [[2003]] featuring the [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Melanie Bush]], it was notable for its highly experimental format. Each of the two discs (which each contained two episodes) could be listened to in whatever order the listener chose. The [[serial]] detailed what happened when the Doctor was coerced into changing the past by altering the fate of the president of a human colony, but offered no conclusions about which of the versions of history was the "correct" one.

The play was further notable for being the closest the [[Quark]]s have ever come to returning to performed ''[[Doctor Who]]'' since ''[[The War Games]]''. Though never heard, the Quarks are essentially the {{w|MacGuffin}} of the story and are mentioned at least once in each episode. From the Doctor and Mel's perspective, the events of ''Flip-Flop'' were merely a side-trip from their current "mission" to defeat the Quarks aboard the space-yacht ''[[Pinto (ship)|Pinto]]''.
