Producer [[David Richardson]] confirmed in [[DWM 555]] that a fifth box set was in planning stages, which would have featured the return of [[the General]], but was cancelled following Hurt's death.
 
The audio series ''[[The Eighth Doctor: Time War]]'' served as prequels to these stories. In [[2021 (releases)|2021]] the series continued, with the ''[[The War Doctor Begins]]'' sub-series, featuring [[Jonathon Carley]] as a young War Doctor, picking up directly from the webcast ''[[The Night of the Doctor (TV story)|The Night of the Doctor]]''.
