It was produced to coincide with the 40th Anniversary of the series and was originally posted in six weekly parts from [[13th November]] to [[18th December]] [[2003]] on BBCi's ''Doctor Who'' [http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/doctorwho/webcasts/shalka/ website]. Although it was intended to be an "official" continuation of the television series that had ended in [[1989]], the revival of the programme in [[2005]] relegated it, and the [[Richard E. Grant]]'s [[Alternative Ninth Doctor|version of the Ninth Doctor]], to non-[[canon]]ical status. | |||
The serial was written by [[Paul Cornell]], with Richard E. Grant providing the voice for the Ninth Doctor and [[Derek Jacobi]] as the voice of an android made in the image of The Doctor's old enemy, [[the Master]]. The Doctor's companion for this adventure, [[Alison Cheney]], was voiced by [[Sophie Okonedo]]. As a fan of ''Doctor Who'', [[David Tennant]], who had just happened to learn of the production, requested and got a cameo role in the production, making this the first of many ''Doctor Who''-related roles for the actor. | The serial was written by [[Paul Cornell]], with Richard E.
