River Song (Alex Kingston) will cross paths with the Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) in a new series of Doctor Who audio plays.

Kingston will reprise her role as the time-travelling archaeologist in Doctor Who: Doom Coalition 2 from Big Finish Productions.



Best known for their audio plays based on the classic Doctor Who series, Big Finish have recently begun branching out into new series material with the upcoming box-set UNIT: Extinction starring Jemma Redgrave (Kate Stewart) and Ingrid Oliver (Osgood).

Doom Coalition 2 will be released in March 2016 - with Kingston joined by McGann, plus Nicola Walker and Hattie Morahan as the Doctor's companions Liv Chenka and Helen Sinclair.

River will then return later in 2016 with her own spinoff series - Doctor Who: The Diary of River Song, a four-hour adventure which will again feature McGann in its final instalment.



Further 2016 efforts from Big Finish based on the new series will include Doctor Who: The Churchill Years - with Ian McNeice reprising his role of Winston Churchill to narrate a four-hour saga, recounting the indomitable Prime Minister's unseen encounters with the Doctor.

Meanwhile, Doctor Who: Classic Doctors, New Monsters will pit the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Doctors against creatures invented for the new series.



Peter Davison will take on the Weeping Angels, Colin Baker encounters the Judoon, Sylvester McCoy will meet the Sycorax, while Paul McGann visits the era of the Time War and faces the latest clone batch of Sontarans.

"It's the ultimate mash-up - and we have some great scripts lined up for these landmark stories," said executive producer Jason Haigh-Ellery. "There is no doubt that 2016 is going to be a brilliant year for Big Finish!"

All four of these box sets will be released next year and can be pre-ordered now from Big Finish.
