Producer David Richardson said: "Ace and Tegan – the pairing that, until The Power of the Doctor came along, we didn’t even know we were crying out for! Sophie and Janet made such a huge impact when they returned for Jodie Whittaker’s last story, and in this latest River Song box set, we get to explore the lead-up to that.
"How did Ace and Tegan first meet? And how did they encounter River Song? It’s a story told over decades and not necessarily in sequence. River has encountered many formidable things, but is she ready for the explosive properties of both Nitro-9 and Tegan Jovanka?"
