Doctor Who: Into the TARDIS will bring classic Doctor Who adventures to new audiences starting in March 2024 with a story featuring David Tennant and Catherine Tate as the Doctor and Donna Noble. The weekly Into the TARDIS podcast from Big Finish Productions will present Doctor Who audio dramas from throughout Big Finish’s 25 years of producing Doctor Who audio stories in episodic format. Big Finish has been putting out full-cast audio stories in the Doctor Who universe since 1999, often starring past Doctor Who stars, including Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant. Into the TARDIS sees Big Finish celebrating its 25th anniversary producing Doctor Who stories, in association with BBC Studios, Zebralution Podcast, Apple, and Acast.
New episodes of Doctor Who: Into the TARDIS will debut on Saturdays, mimicking the release format of the original serialized broadcasts of classic Doctor Who stories on the BBC. Each episode features a newly recorded introduction from Colin Baker, who played the Sixth Doctor in Doctor Who and continues in that role for Big Finish. The podcast will also have behind-the-scenes interviews.
