Paul McGann stars in three epic adventures as the Doctor still attempting to avoid the Time War’s horrors and escape his inevitable fate of becoming a warrior. And, he’s got a new companion... but has he met her before?

Emma Campbell-Jones makes a highly-anticipated return as Cass Fermazzi - a decade after first appearing in the 2013 TV special mini-episode, The Night of the Doctor! Now Cass somehow joins the Eighth Doctor again, but at an earlier point in his life... 

Emma Campbell-Jones said: “I’ve been very much hoping and wishing ever since we did that minisode that there would be more adventure and magic at some point. Words can’t describe how happy I am to be back. 

“In The Night of the Doctor, it felt like Cass was just starting out and then her story was very much curtailed. It was desperately heartbreaking. I love that she has another chance - unwittingly, as she doesn’t know her story yet. I’m really excited about her journeys to come and that she has more life to live. It’s beautiful and exciting.” 

The Eighth Doctor Adventures: Time War – Cass is now available to pre-order for just £24.99 (collector’s edition 4-disc CD box set + download) or £19.99 (download only) here. 

Sonny McGann also returns to the TARDIS as Alex Campbell - the Doctor’s cheeky great-grandson from a different universe! 

The three action-packed adventures in this box set are as follows:  
 
Meanwhile, Elsewhere by Tim Foley  
Vespertine by Lou Morgan  
Previously, Next Time by James Moran (two parts) 

Paul McGann said: “I was very happy to find out that Emma and Sonny were joining me as regulars. This feels special to me. It’s great and I have a good feeling about it. It really works!”

Producer David Richardson said: “Cass is back and she even gets to be the title of this fifth box set in the Eighth Doctor’s Time War saga! But how can this be? Cass met the Doctor once in The Night of the Doctor and died at the end of that story. Unless something cataclysmic is happening to the course of history… something huge like a war within time…”
