Each episode of the first season was broadcast alongside a 10 minute making of entitled ''[[Beyond the Vortex]]''. However, the [[Series 2 (8DA)|second]], [[Series 3 (8DA)|third]] and fourth series debuted on CD prior to their radio broadcasts, carrying over to Radio 7's rebranded successor, [[BBC Radio 4 Extra]]. | ||
For the third series, Big Finish introduced a unique release method. The series format changed to a series of 16 25 minute episodes as opposed to 50 minute episodes. In absence of a 2009 TV series, a new episode was released as a download every Saturday evening on a weekly basis, and subscribers would be able to receive the physical CD upon release. However, this release method did not carry over to the fourth season. In the case of the third season, its radio broadcast was heavily condensed and only stories which did not feature returning monsters (''[[Orbis (audio story)|Orbis]]'', ''[[The Beast of Orlok (audio story)|The Beast of Orlok]]'', ''[[The Scapegoat (audio story)|The Scapegoat]]'' and ''[[The Cannibalists (audio story)|The Cannibalists]]'') were presented in edited forms. | For the third series, Big Finish introduced a unique release method.
