Producer David Richardson said: "One of the joys of The Audio Novels is that they allow us to explore avenues which are tragically closed off. I absolutely loved working with both Mary Tamm and Trevor Baxter at Big Finish, and losing both of them was a great tragedy.

"We had such fun making The Justice of Jalxar, and I would have loved to make more full-cast adventures with the Fourth Doctor, the First Romana, Jago and Litefoot. So The Lord of Misrule is a tribute to them and the happy times we had together, so beautifully written by Paul Morris and performed by the glorious Jon Culshaw."

Jon Culshaw said: "I loved revisiting Jago and Litefoot. Since The Talons of Weng-Chiang, they’ve become known as such a force, such a team. The absolute charm of them – their great friendship, their warmth, their rapport, their knockabout energy, their mischief – they're a beautiful double act, almost a Victorian Morecambe and Wise."
