The Third Doctor and Sarah Jane face a Revolution... in Space!
Earth has colonised the solar system, but class struggles persist, as The Third Doctor Adventures returns with a brand-new full-cast drama, out now from Big Finish Productions.
The Third Doctor Adventures: Revolution in Space is an epic six-part story starring Tim Treloar as the Third Doctor and Sadie Miller as his feisty companion Sarah Jane Smith, roles originally played on television by Jon Pertwee and Elisabeth Sladen (Miller’s mother). BAFTA-winning actress Juliet Aubrey guest stars as the sinister Zyla Kalstein.
Writer Jonathan Morris sees Revolution in Space as the third part of a trilogy with 1970s television Doctor Who serials Colony in Space and Frontier in Space. In other words, it’s a high-stakes political thriller, as the TARDIS once again lands in a flashpoint of the human race’s future as a spacefaring species.
Doctor Who - The Third Doctor Adventures: Revolution in Space 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.
The Doctor and Sarah find themselves in an asteroid, on the outer reaches of Earth’s solar system. It’s the future, and humans have colonised this inhospitable place, to mine vital minerals to supply their home planet. However, links with Earth are becoming ever more strained, and forces within the colony are seeking independence. Revolution is in the air.
Meanwhile, in the deepest chambers of the asteroid, a powerful force is emerging. Its influence is growing rapidly. But how will it affect Sarah Jane Smith and her place in future history?
Also in the superb cast of Revolution in Space are Richard James (Governor Rogan), David Dobson (Tribune Foyle), Barry Aird (Operator Rellak), Robert Whitelock (Operator Goole), Anna Crichlow (Officer Miro), Charlie Norfolk (Dr Annis Gottfried), Tom Alexander (Mullins) and Harry Myers (Operator Carver).
Actor Tim Treloar said: “Most of the Third Doctor’s adventures are set on Earth, and Revolution in Space is set on Earth in a way, in that it's the descendants of Earth people who went to the asteroid first and have now become natives.
“In a similar vein to the American revolution, they seek independence and autonomy. I enjoy that bolshiness - masses against the classes! This script written by Jonny Morris is wonderful, the dialogue’s fantastic.”
Sadie Miller added: “Doing a six-part story feels cinematic. You really get to go on a much deeper journey with all the characters and there’s so much more room to feel all those emotional corners, which is exciting. I love that we had a much bigger cast than usual. There’s a lot of action sequences, and you don’t quite know where it’s going to end up!”

Sadie, singlehandedly, fulfilling the hair quotient.
Honestly, I can't say in words how much I love your audio dramas and more so all your Doctor Who dramas. Please keep doing what you do, between the casting from original cast to the replacements of those who are sadly no longer with us and with the story/scripts which are so fitting and pay tribute to both classic and new Who.
Big Finish always finds a new angle, an unexplored gap to investigate. And I love that the classic Doctors and companions are thrown into these stories.
I was just too young to remember Patrick Troughton so Pertwee and spearhead from space were my introduction to the show. If you're from that era you'll know all we had were the odd repeat or target books to relive what we'd seen, so it was really a case of miss it, miss out. These big finish releases are so amazing, making me experience my own personal time travel, back to saturday teatimes when I'd sit enthralled for 24 minutes and give my parents some well deserved peace and quiet! Great job everyone, keep them coming!
Big Finish audio dramas are my escapism from my depression i listen to them at night in the dark & let the story & characters take me on a amazing adventure.
Tim and Sadie are so lovely(
I chatted with them at the convention
This looks amazing.
I only came to Doctor Who as an adult with Eccleston and worked my way back. I could never quite square away the Pertwee Doctor with the more rebellious iterations that came later... until I started to listen to these Big Finish audios. The Third Doctor is basically your cool uncle who dressed in a nice suit and drove a Saab. So looking forward to hearing this.
I loved Tim and Nicholas mucking about for the camera, and a great job by Tim of demonstrating that yes, voice actors CAN convey emotion through facial expression! 😄 To be fair to Jon Pertwee, a lot of the Dalek stories he got handed were kinda half-baked, to be honest.
Season 11 story's were my entry point into Doctorwho so I find this particularly nostalgic & poignant to hear. Big Finish are so very brilliant at recreating a era long past. Sadie sounds absolutely spot on. Brilliant Stuff.
Tim and Sadie sound lot more like the third doctor and Sarah my favourite TARDIS team ❤❤
I would love to see Sadie continue her mother’s legacy on the screen as well. Doctor Who has a history of explaining away physical changes, and I don’t think that anyone could pull it off besides Sadie. It would be wonderful if she could lead her own narrative branch in the Whoniverse to follow in her mother’s footsteps.
My favourite third doctor Story on. Big finish 🎉
Love this! Also love how its lizs daugter playing the SJ role! Speaking of sarah jane, will big finish be releasing any more "rani takes on the world" sets? Ive finished both as soon as they were released and im obsessed!
The Third Doctor adventures are my favourite Big Finish series. There’s times when I listen when the voices are 100%. Plus I think I’ve fallen in love with Sadie
I love how Revolution in Space gives Season 11 vibes in the storytelling, voice acting and sound design/music. What a way to celebrate 50 years of the Third Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith!
Thanks very much see the actors talking nice one Tim and Sadie ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks big finish again 👍
Sadie is getting more and more closer to Sarah Jane. I would say "impressive", but maybe that's bit of an overreaction, considering she's literally related to Elisabeth Sladen.
Big fan of big finish got 300 WHO cds great interviews 👍
Big Finish should be involved in making an official AAA game 🎮
They are all so talented.
I’m loving what you’re doing with the 3rd Doctor era - it’s my least favourite era but I absolutely love the dynamic between the Doctor and Liz and the Doctor and Sarah and these new stories with them have been brilliant - halfway thru Revolution in Space and loving it - Tim and Sadie are on top form!
Yay, thank you!
Ooh, this is out now? Gotta grab my phone and download it!
Yes yes!!!! Please don't give up on bts
I love big finish please don't ruin anything like the TV show has done
