Big Finish will release Circuit Breaker: The Deadliest Weapon, a new Doctor Who audio adventure starring the Fugitive Doctor against the Cybermen, on digital, CD and vinyl on 31 July. Matthew Kresal’s review recounts how the BBC’s February 1985 hiatus sidelined Colin Baker and left the serial The Ultimate Evil unproduced until Big Finish completed it 35 years later. Toby Hadoke’s Time Travels podcast ran an episode on The Invasion of Time Part Five, and current retrospectives include a William Hartnell profile and a JG Ballard audio clip recalling an episode linked to 'Aftermath'. With the TV series off air, these audio releases and archival features are preserving lost scripts, expanding continuity, and giving collectors and historians fresh material to explore.
