Jo Jones Reunites with the Third Doctor!
The Third Doctor and his much-loved former companion embark upon new adventures together in a brand-new audio box set, due for release in February 2023 from Big Finish Productions.
The ever-popular Katy Manning returns as Jo Jones (née Grant) – years after the former UNIT employee ended her TARDIS travels. Now, Jo is about to reunite with her Doctor at a very important point in her life, in three full-cast audio dramas.
She’s joined by the acclaimed Tim Treloar, once again metaphorically donning the Third Doctor’s velvet jacket – brilliantly recapturing Jon Pertwee’s iconic Doctor Who performance.
Doctor Who – The Third Doctor Adventures: The Return of Jo Jones is now available to pre-order as a collector’s edition 3-disc CD box set (+ download for just £19.99) or a digital download only (for just £16.99), exclusively here.
Beginning on Earth, then heading out into a whole universe of possibilities, the Doctor Who stories in this box set are:
Supernature by Matt Fitton
The Conservitors by Felicia Barker
The Iron Shore by Lizzie Hopley
Producer Heather Challands says: “We're always looking for new ways to celebrate an old and much-beloved era. This instalment of The Third Doctor Adventures has not one, not two, but three new two-part standalone adventures!
“Ranging from bird attacks on the Isle of Wight, to political unrest in a repressive regime looking to robotically control all elements of risk, and then to a haunted dock under an alien curse. The Doctor is reunited with Jo Jones, setting off on another trip around the universe...and I couldn't be more thrilled!”
Praise for the previous box set in the range, The Third Doctor Adventures: Kaleidoscope:
“Kaleidoscope is a storytelling triumph.”
– Who-Review
“It's a thriller, pure and simple, one with a lot of moving pieces, but it is, despite that, fun to
follow as it unfolds.”– Warped Factor
“Kaleidoscope is a great example of recreating 70s Doctor Who successfully.”
– We Made This Network
