In 2013, though approached with a chance to reprise his role in ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'', Christopher Eccleston turned down the offer to return for the fiftieth anniversary. For this reason, the [[regeneration]] of [[John Hurt]]'s [[War Doctor]] into the Ninth Doctor is not shown to completion. The original plan was for the Ninth Doctor to have been the one fighting the Time War, but since Eccleston turned down the offer showrunner [[Steven Moffat]] created the War Doctor character to take his place. However, much like every other Doctor actor before David Tennant, he appeared in archive footage in the special, in the "saving Gallifrey" and ending scenes. | In 2013, though approached with a chance to reprise his role in ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'', Christopher Eccleston turned down the offer to return for the fiftieth anniversary.

On the 9th of August 2020, [[Big Finish Productions]] revealed there would be 4 box-sets staring Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor spanning four boxsets to be released between May 2021 and February 2022. Having felt healed from meeting fans at conventions and their feelings towards his portrayal of The Doctor, ultimately agreed to participate with Big Finish after discussions with Big Finish co-chairman, [[Jason Haigh-Ellery]]. Eccleston, in response to his return, stated “After 15 years, it will be exciting to revisit the Ninth Doctor’s world, bringing back to life a character I love playing.” [https://www.bigfinish.com/news/v/christopher-eccleston-returns-to-doctor-who] Eccleston posted a picture on [[Instagram]] showing him holding the script, which revealed the title of the first episode, Sphere of Freedom.
