* Following the broadcast of ''[[Survival (TV story)|Survival]]'' in 1989 and the show's subsequent placement on "indefinite hiatus" by the BBC, the idea of producing an animated series based upon ''Doctor Who'' and continuing the adventures of the [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Ace]] was reported several times in the media; reportedly the Canadian animation house [[Nelvana]] was even interested at one point. This project never materialised, but the idea of producing animated ''Doctor Who'' adventures resurfaced with the coming of the Internet and the newly emerging format known as webcasting. ''Death Comes to Time'' was the first experiment of its kind; it would be followed soon after by ''[[Real Time (webcast)|Real Time]]'' (featuring the [[Sixth Doctor]]), ''[[Shada (webcast)|Shada]]'' (featuring the [[Eighth Doctor]]) and culminating in ''[[Scream of the Shalka (webcast)|Scream of the Shalka]]'', which attempted to introduce [[Ninth Doctor (Scream of the Shalka)|a new incarnation of the Doctor]]. | * Following the broadcast of ''[[Survival (TV story)|Survival]]'' in 1989 and the show's subsequent placement on "indefinite hiatus" by the BBC, the idea of producing an animated series based upon ''Doctor Who'' and continuing the adventures of the [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Ace]] was reported several times in the media; reportedly the Canadian animation house [[Nelvana]] was even interested at one point.
