The Time Agency has been meddling with time ever since its inception. Of all the days in history, today is a day that will define the agency forever.  

Today is the day of their greatest achievement. Today is the day they removed an entire galaxy from the timeline.  

Today is the day the Doctor's shutting them down. 

Doctor Who – Short Trips are short stories, many written by some of Doctor Who’s most popular authors from the worlds of television, print, comics and audio, and read by a host of favourite Big Finish actors. 

Writer Robert Napton said: “Being American, my gateway as a child to Doctor Who was PBS and my Doctor was Tom Baker, and I've been a fan ever since. Working with Alfie Shaw as the producer is a delight and getting Neve McIntosh to narrate the story and Nick Briggs to direct it was like winning the Doctor Who lottery. This has been a dream come true, especially for an American writer, to get a shot at writing a Doctor Who story so I am grateful to Big Finish for having me on board.” 

Producer Alfie Shaw added: “The theme of temporal responsibility is one that runs throughout the Tenth Doctor’s era – as we’ve seen recently with the Time Lord Victorious series – and Robert taps into that. This is the Doctor having been through all that and making sure that others don’t fall into the same pitfalls that he did.”
