Introducing Doctor Who: Redacted

Friday, July 22, 2022 • Duration 01:46

Someone's trying to break through....In episode 0 of Doctor Who: Redacted, a mysterious woman calling herself the Doctor is trying and failing to contact Earth. Her friends are disappearing; being redacted from reality. And if you remember her? Then it's going to get you, too.

Click through to our programme page for episode transcripts.

Charlie Craggs, Lois Chimimba and Holly Quin-Ankrah are Cleo, Abby and Shawna – three best friends and university dropouts who make a truly terrible conspiracy podcast together. Their favourite conspiracy? Is this one random blue box actually an alien spaceship? Obviously not. Right…?

Cleo Proctor got kicked out at 16 when she came out as trans to her Mum. Now she’s living with her brother, saving up for surgery and working front of house at the Queen Vic Theatre. A class clown who never takes anything seriously, Cleo’s big heart gets her in no end of trouble.

Abby McPhail is a full-time carer for her Mum in Glasgow. She wants to do something amazing and leave her mark on the world. But her Mum needs her, and she can’t leave home. Brilliant, driven, ambitious and intelligent, Abby is the research powerhouse behind the girls’ investigations.

Shawna Thompson is the only woman on her Computing course at college in Sheffield. Group skeptic, Shawna doesn’t believe in aliens and magic. But she does the podcast because Abby asked her to. Fiercely protective, loyal, and endlessly exasperated, Shawna tries to keep Cleo and Abby out of trouble.

Brand new audio drama from Juno Dawson, with a debut performance from trans activist Charlie Craggs. Full of beloved names and characters from Doctor Who – including Jodie Whittaker, Jemma Redgrave, Ingrid Oliver, and Anjli Mohindra – and a host of amazing comedy talent including Doon Mackichan, Jacob Hawley, Ken Cheng, Alasdair Beckett-King, Kieran Hodgson and Ambika Mod.
