The Seventh Doctor Adventures is a Big Finish Productions audio play series based on the television series Doctor Who . It sees the return of Sylvester McCoy reprising his role as the Seventh Doctor.
In 1999, beginning with the story " The Sirens of Time ", Big Finish Productions began producing a series of audio adventures featuring the Fifth Doctor, Sixth Doctor and Seventh Doctor. For 22 years these stories continued collectively known as Big Finish's " Main Range ". [1] [2] In May 2020, Big Finish announced the main range would conclude in March 2021 and subsequently replaced with regular releases of each Doctor's adventures continuing in their own respective ranges. [3] [4] Several previously released special titles were retroactively reallocated into these new ranges by Big Finish.

But what if the Doctor found a way to put things right,once and for all? Would it really be so terrible to take a stand? Would the end justify the means? And would his friends agree? The Seventh Doctor’s last day is coming…" [15]

On 23 May 2024,Big Finish announced their slate of boxsets for 2025. Senior Producer John Ainsworth said “The Sixth,Seventh and Eighth Doctors will feature in two box sets each,as in previous years. I shan't give too much away but expect companions old and new,some classic series monsters that haven't featured on audio for a decade,and a name that's been hiding in plain sight (and it's time to go there...).” [18] The second boxset is scheduled for November 2025.
