The post-War Games adventures of the Second Doctor (Michael Troughton) continue this August in The Haunted Windmill, a brand-new box set of full-cast Doctor Who audio drama. 

The Doctor’s travelling once more with Jamie (Frazer Hines) and Zoe (Wendy Padbury), as well as his Time Lord handler Raven (Emma Noakes). Together they’ve just scuppered the Daleks’ latest deadly scheme – as heard in 2025 release The Potential Daleks. 

But now they’re on the run from the Doctor’s own people, and to escape being recalled to Gallifrey, they take the TARDIS to Earth, 1963. But this is a different Earth, one where the Doctor had never arrived... 

Doctor Who – The Second Doctor Adventures: The Haunted Windmill is now available to pre-order for just £19.99 (download to own) or £24.99 (download to own + collector’s edition CD box set), exclusively here. Please note: the collector’s edition CD box set is strictly limited to 1,500 copies and will not be re-pressed. 

To escape the Time Lords’ justice – or lack of it – the Doctor, Jamie, Zoe and Raven take a desperate gamble: a jump to planet Earth, in 1963… 

But not the Earth as the Doctor knew it. This is the world as it would have been if he’d never, ever landed there at all. An Earth free of his influence, in which old friends are strangely changed. 

If he tries to save this Earth, or escape it, the Time Lords will find him. Hidden away in a haunted windmill, on the edge of a marsh, all he can do is observe. But the monsters are coming… 

The three episodes in this box set, all scripted by Alan Barnes, are: 

The Haunted Windmill 
The Crystal Ship 
The Hungry Glass 

Script editor and director Nicholas Briggs said: “This is an exciting new direction for our Second Doctor Adventures. We left the Doctor – along with the older versions of Zoe and Jamie, plus the Time Lord agent Raven – in a right old pickle at the end of The Potential Daleks. They thought they'd solved everything! But now they’re in trouble with the Time Lords – again!  

“Their audacious escape plan takes them somewhere entirely unexpected, where nothing is as you’d presume. This time round, I’ve entrusted the range to one of Big Finish’s most celebrated writers, Alan Barnes. And as you'd expect, he’s come up with something genuinely startling. 

“It’s steeped in nostalgia but at the same time completely brand new. There are old monsters in brand-new situations and brand-new characters finding themselves facing classic Doctor Who dilemmas. Just who are ‘the Colonel’ and ‘Miss Heriot’ and what have their young relatives, Lucius and Roberta, got to do with the Doctor and Raven?”
