Jo Martin is on the run from Alice Krige in The Fugitive Doctor: Most Wanted, a brand-new audio drama box set available now from Big Finish Productions.
Meet the Doctor, a Time Lord secret agent with a dangerous gap in her memory. Suddenly on the run from her own side - the mysterious Division - she must evade capture if she's to survive long enough to unlock the secrets she carries within her.
What's more, from the most dreaded prison hulk in the galaxy to the winter of a Russian forest, and through a dimension where all is lost, the Doctor is being hunted by the best detective on Gallifrey.
All you have to do is try to keep up.
The Fugitive Doctor: Most Wanted, the first box set of this series, comprises three full-cast adventures. The Doctor is on the run from her former employers, the Division, with Time Lord detective Cosmogon (Alice Krige, familiar to sci-fi fans as Borg Queen from the Star Trek franchise) hot on her tail.
As she flees across space and time, the Doctor encounters a mythological witch in 17th-century Russia, lost souls including another version of herself, and her greatest enemies - the Daleks!
The Worlds of Doctor Who - The Fugitive Doctor: Most Wanted is now available to own for just £22.99 (collector’s edition CD box set + download) or £18.99 (download only), exclusively from www.bigfinish.com. Please note: the collector’s edition CD box set is strictly limited to 1,000 copies and will not be repressed.
The three thrilling new adventures for the Fugitive Doctor are:
Fast Times by Robert Valentine
When the mysterious Division tries to arrest their equally mysterious agent, the Doctor, she evades capture and heads out in search of answers... but trouble is never far behind.
Captured by bounty hunters and imprisoned in a maximum-security hulk ship, the Doctor is about to learn that there's no time to stand still when you're a fugitive. And times are about to get very fast indeed.
The Legend of Baba Yaga by Rochana Patel
On the run from the Time Lords and in serious need of help, the Doctor heads for 17th century Russia in search of the legendary witch of Slavic folklore... Baba Yaga.
But while trying to gain assistance from this powerful entity, the Doctor finds herself embroiled in events from the most famous of Baba Yaga’s tales when the tries to help a beautiful young woman called Vasilisa retrieve a burning ember to save her family from the bitter Russian winter.
What is real? What is fantasy? And will the Doctor be able to tell the difference in time?
The Dimension of Lost Things by Lisa McMullin
Fleeing Cosmo through the Vortex, the TARDIS gets sucked down a temporal plughole, and the Doctor emerges into a weird landscape. Finding other lost souls in the form of mountaineer George Mallory and scavenger Athelia, the Doctor soon stumbles across another, more surprising denizen of this strange dimension - herself!
With Cosmo still in pursuit and memory-stealing winds threatening to wipe her mind for good, the Doctor senses a complex trap in action. But whose trap is it, and how can she possibly escape?
The first episode guest stars Leah Harvey (BAFTA-nominated for their role in Apple TV+’s Foundation) as imprisoned freedom fighter Fade and Nicholas Briggs as the Daleks, while the second episode guest stars Jacqueline King (recently seen as Sylvia Noble in the Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials) as Baba Yaga.
The box set’s guest cast also includes Sophie Shad as Vasilisa, Penelope Rawlins as Toshka, Harry Myers as Spectral Horseman, Paul Panting as Spectral Horseman, Becky Wright as Milana, Matt Wycliffe as Sandy Irvine, and Nneka Okuye as Athelia.
Jo Martin said: “Going from the TV show to audio, it’s a bit more pressure, because I haven't got Jodie there - it’s all on me. On the first day, I could feel my heart fluttering. But I thought, ‘Jo, you've been in this game a hundred years, kid’ - I've acquired a few skills to get me through!
“The stories are full on. There isn’t a second to catch your breath. There are intimate moments here and there, but basically it’s just, go, go, go. It’s what I want in an action show that features the Doctor. And the beautiful thing is, I get to deal with the Daleks!”
Co-star Alice Krige said: “Cosmogon starts off very, very tough and takes her job very, very seriously. And through the course of these stories, we reveal more about her. It was a lovely challenge and a lovely opportunity, and Jo’s brilliant - she's totally engaging and wonderful to work with.”
Big Finish listeners can purchase Most Wanted in a bundle with the second Fugitive Doctor box set (Title TBA), to be released later in 2025, for just £44 (on collector’s edition CD box set + download) or £36 (download only), exclusively from www.bigfinish.com.

This is a Actress who should have been The Doctor for a long run with great adventures, Jo Martin has toughness, authority and acting gravatas needed for The Doctor
And hopefully she still will with these audio dramas
I personally have my own sort of pipe dream that since we’ve well shown that the Doctor can take on past faces, they end up taking the same face as the Fugitive Doctor, a Doctor they don’t fully consider to be them, perhaps having to deal with the consequences of having the recognizable face of one of the more ruthless Doctors
I really wish Jo had been the 14th Doctor. She reminds me a lot of Six, just as 13 reminded me of 5,
Finally! Jo Martin blew my mind even with her limited screen time as The Doctor. A little bit Capaldi, a little bit Pertwee, and yet all her own brilliant take on the character at the same time. I cannot wait to listen to these new stories!
The TV show sets the blueprints, the audios take the risks! Thank god for Big Finish!
If she doesn't remember her distant past either, this is an even stronger indicator she's between the 2nd and 3rd doctors
- 2 was sentanced to exile and forced regeneration
- 2 regenerates into fugitive and manages to escape her fate of exile, which is why shes a fugitive in the first place
- fugitive learns that *something* happened in her distant past, and tries to uncover it
- she eventually succeeds in learning about her origin as the timeless child
- division erase her memories of that regeneration, regenerate her into 3, and send him back to earth, with him thinking he'd just regenerated from 2
I don't think that's true because the Fugitive Doctor was working for Division before she ran away from them, and I've just listened to all three stories in this audio boxset which confirms that.
But also, Jo Martin said on the Who Corner to Corner podcast that when she was told that she was going to be the Doctor, she’d be playing the earliest Doctor in the canon, so that confirms she’s Pre-Hartnell.
But also, big indicator that the Fugitive Doctor isn’t 6B is this conversation between Gat and Lee in Fugitive of the Judoon.
GAT: Did you really think that we wouldn't find you? Did you think that I'd ever stop looking? Good place to hide, mind, the far backside of a tiny galaxy.
LEE: How did you find me?
(The box.)
GAT: Sentiment was always going to be your downfall. You kept it. Silly. Chronotelluric alloy, strong entanglement. Very trackable. It just takes a while.
The Time Lords became aware of the Doctor’s history and connection with the Earth in The War Games, but in this scene Gat acts like she’s never heard of the place, which she would’ve if the Fugitive Doctor was 6B, as she was tasked with finding and capturing the Doctor and Lee, and so she’d be given full background on the Doctor and Lee in order to search for places that they have history with, but also Gat knew them both before they went on the run, as she was a Division higher-up, and so she would’ve likely heard stories of the Doctor and the Earth if she were 6B. Gat says “good place to hide mind, far backside in a tiny galaxy” not something she’d say if the Fugitive Doctor had previous history with the Earth, the subtext of what Gat is saying is that the Fugitive Doctor chose one of the most random planets in the universe to hide where she could never be found. She says that she only found where in the universe they were hiding because of tracing Lee’s Division service medal.
The Fugitive Doctor’s TARDIS being a Police Box is probably the most explainable contradiction of the Fugitive Doctor being Pre-Hartnell. If the TARDIS that the First Doctor stole from the repair shop was their TARDIS from before their mind was wiped, and we know from The Doctor’s Wife that the TARDIS can archive console rooms from the Doctor’s personal future, then the explanation for the Police Box is easy. When the Fugitive Doctor went on the run from Division, the TARDIS deliberately brought her to her future home planet of Earth so that the 13th Doctor could meet her to learn more about her forgotten past, and when she landed at the lighthouse the TARDIS deliberately took on the Police Box shape so that when the 13th Doctor dug her up, she’d know that it was her own TARDIS.
If I got to explain why the Fugitive Doctor uses the title Doctor, to respect Hartnell’s Doctor and his character arc, I’d say that there are multiple titles on Gallifrey that mean Doctor in English, because it has various meanings anyway like healer, physician, scientist, and an expert of a certain subject. I think that the title the Fugitive Doctor/Pre-Hartnell Doctors used and was presumably chosen by the 7th kid Doctor we see in the Division Meeting in The Timeless Children, means scientist, because that fits nicely with how they are under the guardianship of Tecteun and were involved in the engineering/technological side of the creation of Time Lord society. And Hartnell’s Doctor chose the title meaning healer or physician, attaching a promise with it to never be cruel or cowardly, to never give up or in, to help and save people.
I mean the title Doctor as we know it (never be cruel, never be cowardly, never give up or in) hardly reflects the Fugitive Doctor, she’s a no-nonsense military commander who barks orders and uses guns, as well as leading teams of people who use guns, working as an operative for a Time Lord black ops organisation.
Sorry mate, I know you want it to be the case, but it isn't. The TV show was pretty damn explicit.
I think what with the recent installment of The War Games, canon might've changed, but I still can't break the theory that the Fugitive Doctor is a regeneration that might've fallen in between 2 and 3. Hell, I had a theory that this Doctor could possibly be the Valeyard masqueraded as the Doctor. I don't know. I will say her story is very fascinating and I hope to see the pages unfold on her story.
Give this shit up and watch war games in colour
@davidblyth6886 LOL geez dude, they can't theorize?
Man that TARDIS is absolutely gorgeous good job big finish!
I am utterly fascinated by the Fugitive Doctor, much on the level of the War Doctor. This benign, elusive incarnation that snuck under the radar. Overlook the pre-Hartnell plot line for a bit, canotically, it really still feels like she's a regeneration somewhere in between what we know. Maybe even a version of the Doctor somewhere sewn in between the aformentioned War Doctor, explaining why this version of the Doctor is so trained for combat. I don't know, all I'm saying is more time with this Doctor could unfold a mystery about her that's been surging since the introduction.
Jo Martin has such a great, commanding voice.
that's why she is perfect for The Doctor
Man, I can't wait for this one. Jo's Doctor is a badass and I'm interested to know anything more about that chapter. I scratched my head at who she could be. She seems to be the Doctor but also not the Doctor (no multiverse shenanigans involved), that's as far as I can describe it... if anything, whether this will go deeper or not, Big Finish and comics are definitely the right places to explore this character.
Can't wait to hear Jo in this one; cheers to Big Finish for bringing her back to explore this incarnation more.
Definitely!!!!💯 😎👌🏿
The CDs have already sold out. I hope there'll be a fresh batch produced.
Jo is a natural for this format with her delivery! and this show! I hope she gets a chance to explore withiut needing The Division or other known elements, but just to explore. Chibnall wrote her well, so I hope we'll get more of that!
You do know it wasnt just chibnall right? There was a co writer on her debut
Love JO! It feels like forever since we've been waiting for her debut with Big Finish. I truly enjoyed the addendom audio to the 60th anniversary with the War Doctor anď the Fugitive Doctor, but looking forward to her carrying a story all on her own. She's such a badasss!
This video is absolutely fantastic! And you know what? So is Jo Martin.
Really cool stories. I really like Jos take on the Doctor.
I hope she will get many more cool stories and the same for Jodie, when she joins you.
However what worries me, is the fact that Chibnal STILL doesnt know were she fits. Your comment on the CD that he said "She could be pre Hartnell or season 6b or future" As cool as this sounds in his head. I really hope you convince him to go for season 6b. She would be perfect in that setting
Jo Martin was told she is the First Doctor in canon when she got the job, and 6B has never worked for her especially not now as we've seen the regeneration from 2 to 3
@kylerees3491 well listening to the audio, they said he dosnt know.
As for the colour regeneration. Thats not canon. Same as the War Chief as the Master. Their creator, Terence Dicks says the WarChief abd the Master are seperate characters and always have been. Same with Davros without accident. Nomatter RTDs headcanon.
@thomasnieswandt8805 they never confirm he's the Master it's just hinted at and I agree with that anyway they are separate characters but no 2 goes directly into 3 it's not just the War Games colour they have 2 going directly into 3 in the season 7 collection trailer and Fugitive has never fit there she has no sonic, she was around during the dark times, she doesn't know the Daleks, and now we've seen the regeneration of 2 into 3 that gap is closed
@@kylerees3491 Well she doesnt remember. Thats a difference.
As for the screwdriver. When the 2nd Doctor uses it, it can ... well unscrew things. The 3rd Doctor made it what it was. Also something why Wargames dont work in the coloured way. In the "Two Doctors" in 1986 we have Jamie remembering War Games and a very old second Doctor using a Tardis remote. When 6 asked how he get that, 2 says "Oh you get this, when you work for them, you know." 6 looks bewildred and shocked. So something did happen between War Games and season 7. However...
thats the cool thing about Doctor Who. people can have their own canon. So many things happened over 60 years. When Moffat canonised Big Finish, in "night of the Doctor" you could fit it anywere you like. so
@@thomasnieswandt8805 Fugitive says "Daleks? Sorry I've never even heard of you" and yes I know what the 6B theory is but it's been explained in big finish that he got taken out of the timeline to do those missions he still regenerated into 3 though so yes 6B still happens but it's just the Second Doctor which is what it's supposed to be about. His extra adventures
If she's a pre Hartnell Doctor, then how is her TARDIS still a Police Box?
Spoilers for the second story: they explain the telepathic circuits keep latching onto the image of a police box, it's a time machine, it shouldn't have to make sense lol
The Doctor stole *the same* Tardis. Twice.
The tardis Hartnell stole is the same tardis she has. Even the tardis says at one point she stole him
The police box is the tardis trying to remind the doctor
Because she might have traveled in it before she was reborn as The Doctor?
@ShinyaMerveilles66 😊 This was my "head canon" when we first met the Fugitive Doctor.
Even though Division completely wiped the Doctor's memories, it's absolutely 100% certain that the Doctor would "re-become" what they had once been, even if they were unaware of it
Howard Carter’s trailer music is as wonderful as always!
The latest Doctor Who Magazine has confirmed the Fugitive Doctor’s general placement in the timeline as Jo Martin said “All I know is that, when I took the job and they were trying to explain my Doctor to me, I was told how it was going to work - that I was the first Doctor. So, I was like, 'Okay!“
She also said a variation of this “first Doctor in the canon” in the Who Corner to Corner podcast.
Don’t misinterpret that though, because what she’s saying is that she’s the first main Doctor in the official line up, where you don’t include other Doctors like the Child incarnations, Morbius Doctors, Curator and Valeyard.
You may ask then if she’s Pre-Hartnell, why is her TARDIS a Police Box? The second story of Most Wanted, The Legend of Baba Yaga, explains that her TARDIS’s chameleon circuit is all busted and is drawing from local superstition and folklore to blend in, and is taking on the Police Box because it’s a legend woven throughout Earth’s history due to the Post-Hartnell Doctors adventures.
Yeah she also said she was told she's playing the First Doctor in canon on 'WHO Corner to Corner'
@@kylerees3491 Thank you for reminding me.
I Like The Fugitive Doctor as Jo Martin⏳🕰🕐🥰💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
They should make this the story of the first, Doctor
Love her as the doctor, and I do actually like the idea of a mind wiped doctor who's in a dangerous situation and doesn't really know why.
It's gonna be amazing hearing more history about the fugitive doctor and the daleks to 😱😊👍
just finished, very fun! can't wait to buy more in the future :)
Big finish is fixing the chibnall era 🙌🙌🙌
Woooo! This is going on my wishlist!
God, I would kill for the next UNIT RTD miniseries after War Between the Land and Sea to be a Jo Martin Doctor story.
Bloody brilliant trailer
I love that the Fugitive Doctor’s TARDIS console room is blue because it’s my favourite colour. 💙🩵💙
Hi, has anyone listened to them yet, and if you have what were your thoughts?
This sounds so amazing! I absolutely love jo Martin as the doctor ❤
did someone forget shade smooth?
waited sooooo long for this... thank you BF!!
As always Big Finish bringing the excitement!
Why is this comments section getting brigaded
Generally speaking, big/dedicated fandoms don't like change. (also, racism and sexism play a part in why there's a negative reaction, but that goes without saying)
Because it's awful. Everything post 2017 doctor who has been awful. The amount of people in fandom who actually like this stuff is minute, as borne out by the dreadful ratings.
@@TobiasCrueltyJo Martins doctor is the one bit of 13ths era that people actually liked... Even if it was brought down by being so heavily linked to the timeless child.
@@TobiasCruelty When someone hasn't enjoyed the output of something in 8 years, they typically just stop engaging with it and move onto stuff they do like, rather than trawling comment sections of things that just aren't made for them to get annoyed at people who do like it for hours on end.
What a sad little life you lead.
@@TobiasCruelty But this is also Big Finish we're talking about. If you're just coming here because you see Fugitive Doctor, I'd recommend not judging until you've actually listened to one of the audio dramas. Big Finish is a different team who just so happens to have an official Doctor Who license. Nick Brigs voice of the daleks is also part of Big FInish and has been since it began in the 90's.
Brilliant stuff. Jo Martin and Sacha Dhawan were the shining stars in the Chibnall era
Wait, so the Fugitive Doctor doesn’t remember the Timeless Child stuff either? They wiped her memory, then wipe it again?
Good morning, sunshine.
The tv episode was pretty much clear in showing the Division used the Chameleon Arch with the Timeless Child over and over and over again.
@@UomodAltriTempi Was it? I’ve seen people say that it implied the chameleon arch was used over and over again, but I don’t see where in the finale that was implied, if it’s the Master saying “What did they do to you Doctor, how many lives have you had” lives is interchangeable with regenerations and incarnations.
@@welshie2002
Very intentional wording.
@@welshie2002I've never had a problem in understanding it, especially though the Irish vision metaphor where Brendan, at the end, is taken to the Chameleon Arch to be rewritten.
Memory wipes are standard procedure for Temporal Power secret agents. The most brutal example being what Narvin and Romana did to poor Andred.
Rassilon is The grand serpent at UNIT after hell bent.
12 convincing 1 to regenerate after Trenzalore Made the doctor a fixed event/ immortal.
The tardis reacted - 13 fell
Tardis saved Fugitive. -the last Timeless child.
13 found Tardis after fugitive at ghost monument
13 met fugitives version of the ‘spy’ master
13 was shown her FUTURE by an alternate master created in her future timeline.
14/ Donna become ‘the hybred’
Causing 15 regenerates into 1st timeless child with amnesia.
Revenge by Rassilon after flux lead him to this, using the doctors Immortality to rewrite Galifeays history, replacing it with the division Version of time.
1-15 is fugitives' forgotten past in the fob watch.
(And the years tortured )
Fugitive sent Jack to prevent 13 reaching the matrix on Gallifrey warning of the lone cyberman
By 13 seeing this future it must happen.
The Doctor can’t prevent it from happening
But fugitive can change her past by finding 15 before regeneration.
Replacing the 15 doctor with the division universe Born version of the doctor- (bel and Vinder child Belinder)
Autism and cope.
Love this! 💙😊
Such a great story that need to be told on live screen 📺
Another top trailer. Hopefully the release will be as good.
I think it's out now!
The teaser hints at multiverses, which is starting to get overused, but hopefully it won't matter.
It may have been 5 years since Jo Martin made her groundbreaking debut in Fugitive of the Judoon, but doesn't the trailer magnificently visualise the sets on Gallifrey and the Fugitive Doctor's glorious TARDIS interior!
Big Finish, Please Continue the Doctor Who Novel Adaptation Range.
May it have a ton of sales, so Big Finish can thrive for the next 100 years! \o/
lol it wont!
Don't underestimate Big Finish fans. Quite a lot of them are looking more forward to this than the TV show, but also, even if this particularly series does not sell, they'll move onto something else that will. They have their "worlds of Doctor Who" range they'e about to do a story with the xygons there, and who knows what else. Don't forget the non-Doctor Who stuff, like Jerry Anderson audios.
edit: first Big Finish box set of Zygon Century is actually already out.
I just finished the 1st episode AND I LOVED IT 🤩
huge compliments to whoever made the 3D environments, wow. Awesome trailer
If we had Jo Martin instead of Jodie, I think a lot of fans would have been won over to a female Doctor. Jodie is a fine actress, but unfortunately miscast for a role that requires an air of authority, which Martin nails.
They should make her the Sixteenth Doctor so all this nonsense about her being pre-Hartnell can finally end.
Well she is Pre-Hartnell...
Fantastic trailer! I can't wait to listen to this box set!
So want this, but I’ve got a backlog of audios and books, and the Season 25 Blu-ray still to finish.
Can’t wait to listen to this, love Jo Martin as The Doctor! 🙌
NO FREAKING WAY!!!! This is real? Not just a fan fever dream Finally, the female Doctor we deserve, I love her! She was more the Doctor in 30 seconds of screen time than Whittaker was in 3 seasons, Brilliant,
Yep, but remember, this is an audio drama, not a TV story. However, do not let that sway you either: Big Finish puts out some very awesome Doctor Who output.
I totally agree ! She has an authority aura that every Doctor has, the kind that makes you want to follow their lead because they know what they're doing. 13 didn't have that, she has (at best) the aura of a companion
@ I am at best very excite, at worst very curious about how Big Finish will treat both characters. Yep, that's how excited I am. I think we could be in for, at the very least, a wild ride. Does it make me a shill, I don't necessarily think so but it makes me very curious and not one to immediately hate, because I legit don't see the fun in hating unless it truly is justified. Having not listened yet, who am I to even dare justify that? All I can do is be somewhat hopeful and interested, which I truly am.
@@jukesy1992 Definitely!! BF are always entertaining, I'm just excited to finally get to have Jo as The Dr
Top notch trailer. Thought Jo Martin was brilliant in the role on tv. A shame she hasn't gotten a full live-action series. This series would be an intriguing listen over the years im sure
How many Fugitive Doctor things are we getting though from Big Finish? I know that the 13th Doctor si going to have a few over I think this year and next.
She sounds waaay too normal. Ive been watching Hartnell's wiley old conman doctor in Classic Who: "thats nonsense my child, hee hee hee hee!"
At this point the brand is truly desperate
I've been waiting the whole month for that.
This is so peak!
What ive been wanting for 5 years and now its finally here cant wait❤️❤️
Her past isn't a mystery. We saw the Timeless Child before Galifery was cyber-converted.
What came before the timeless child?
Exactly
Alice Krige, so The Doctor is taking on the Borg Queen
That's ridiculous. Resistance is futile.
I would say Alma Mobley from (the inferior movie adaptation of a great book) Ghost Story. Is where her being associated as a kind of genre-actress really started
Not even the first time.
One of the worst things to ever happen to Who.
No, that's you.
@sabrinatirabassi3529 Right back at you.
Yawn, and look where we are now. Certainly still going
@@sabrinatirabassi3529he's entitled to his opinion as are you. Personally I think this actor is completely wrong for the part.
Who asked you?
Jo Martin is more the Doctor in her 10 minutes of screentime than all of the other RTDemake incarnations combined in their countless agonising hours. Great to welcome her to the TRUE home of Doctor Who.
Touch grass.
@@DubiousStory What the? you're not making sense. In a previous comment of yours, you said "trust Big Finish to bring the excitement". So. Who's side are you on?
@ I'm on the side of good Doctor Who and Jo Martin's Doctor is pretty much objectively that. She does have the unfair advantage over the other RTDemake Doctors in that she exists in a Legitimate Whoniverse run by the Time Lords but she's a damn fine grouchy old petty crook too.
@ Heads up slightly longer reply but positive one, I promise. Oh wow, awesome! Well, good to have you aboard. I, much like you, am looking forward to this. I was also trying to comment back to Dubious Story's comment who seems to be telling us to touch grass, so thank you for coming in and, seemingly, defending and, as you rightly said, bringing in someone on the side of good. By doing that, you've essentially mediated between us and your wording has quelled my own anger, and I am, genuinely, grateful for you doing this, for the reason that your comment has actually made me smile and actually increased my excitement, which I did have already, but to have a fellow fan come on in and give their own thoughts has genuinely made me very happy, as I am about o submit this reply, I'm sat in my chair smiling, genuinely smiling.
We are SO back
You have to admire Big Finish. To double down on a character and an era that finished the show off for most of the general public is quite amazing, and just as the show is about to be cancelled again on TV too!
No. Doctor Who is not canceled.
You don’t have to listen to it 😮
Jeez, I didn't love their ideas with the Fugitive Doctor but even I'm not that salty about it. Don't wish that our favorite show is cancelled, hope that it will get better, dude !
There not asking for your opinion, it's happening Doctor Who is what is now like it or not. I want to see you tell the actors to there faces what you really think. And not just here on TH-cam
Disney Who is definitely cancelled. They were meant to be start filming "series 3" in February, but they've scrapped the TARDIS set at bad wolf studios and are advertising it's studio space for potential other productions. They even referred to making Doctor Who in the past tense.
Hope this doesn’t ruin the season 6B headcanons that many people have
Probably will haha. It's basically confirmed she's pre-Hartnell
Oh, I'm so done with headcanons...
She's pre-Hartnell. FACT!
It did. Chibnall can get fucked, Jo Martin deserved to be between 2 & 3, she's amazing.
Jo Martin said on the Who Corner to Corner podcast that when she was told that she was going to be the Doctor, she’d be playing the earliest Doctor in the canon, so that confirms she’s Pre-Hartnell.

I mean the title Doctor as we know it (never be cruel, never be cowardly, never give up or in) hardly reflects the Fugitive Doctor, she’s a no-nonsense military commander who barks orders and uses guns, as well as leading teams of people who use guns, working as an operative for a Time Lord black ops organisation.
Visually the trailer is fantastic, as usual.
Thank goodness this is a franchise about time travel. It means that a clever writer can come along one day and decanonize all of this.
There not asking for your opinion, it's happening Doctor Who is what is now like it or not. I want to see you tell the actors to there faces what you really think. And not just here on TH-cam
just keep crying
Look, if you're really that worried... Big Finish stuff can usually be enjoyed separately from the show anyway. It's got a different vibe to the TV show but it still works. They probably picked this as they knew how the show went down, got the license for the character and depending on who's writing these stories for her now, actually have a chance of doing her even more justice. Don't lose heart just because you see Fugitive Doctor. I wonder how people felt when Big Finish originally started, or even how they felt when they got Paul McGan on board? Now, he's got beloved Big Finish stories so much so he kept going for, what, 20 years or more, and is still working with them?
@@jukesy1992 I admire your optimism but Paul McGann's Doctor had a decent foundation to build off, Jo's Doctor dosen't. I think at this point they're polishing a turd.
@@Martyn2021 It's happening (for now), until it gets decanonized.
By the way, you might want to brush up on your grammar.
Not even the Fugitive Doctor knows what's happening.
Im the dr shes back was brill in coda awesome trailer cant wait to listen to this ☕️❓️🌟
Big Finish used to be so good in the early days, I still re listen to the early 6th & 8th doctor stories, but I hate this modern stuff.
And yet I loved the "Trials of a Timelord" release that they did to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Six.
lol I'd be surprised if all 192 people who liked this detritus would actually buy it!.
RIP Doctor Who 1963-2017
You and the other 50 bitter people who don't love stories.

2017 wasn't a particularly great year either. Just listen to "Death Comes To Time" if you want Doctor Who to come to an actual end, as much as some fans would rather it didn't, it does exist.
Absolute garbage.
There not asking for your opinion, it's happening Doctor Who is what is now. Step away from your keyboard
Have you ever listened to a Big Finish release before? If so, what did you think of the ones you've listened to?
🤣😂 nope!
Nope
Nurse what crap.
This is audio, it's not for numb people. Go away.
It's 2025 mate, bit old ya reckon?
don't cry
There not asking for your opinion it's happening, like it or not.
For the original commenter: Have you ever listened to Big Finish audio before? If so, which ones, and did you enjoy them? If you haven't heard any Big Finish audio dramas before, and you're just commenting because it's the fugitive Doctor, I say stay out of it and actually listen to, perhaps, one of their classic Doctor dramas, or even one of their other ranges first before coming here to comment. As for the rest of you, I can tell by your replies that you're like me, you HAVE listened to some Big Finish stuff. In my case, actually my most recent listen was their "Box of Delights" adaptation which I absolutely loved, not Doctor Who at all and yet it worked so well on audio.
The Doctor with a gun? Never.
Has happened in the show numerous times
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa someone never seen the show
Never seen classic who🤣
the first doctor used one at least once
@@APlatypus 3, 4, 5 and 6 all used guns 7 used explosives as well
You could always make it so the 2nd was cloned whilst idk in mid regeneration creating the fugitive doctor who has 0
Memories and the timelords
Keeping quit that there’s a clone of the doctor doing the dirty work that the main doctor wouldn’t do
