"Deadline" is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who". The Doctor Who Unbound dramas pose a series of "What if...?" questions.

Plot

What if... "Doctor Who" did not materialise as a television series?

Martin Bannister was once a promising young writer, but somewhere along the line everything went wrong. As he looks back at the ruin of his life, he wonders whether it all started with that children's science fiction programme that never got produced. Whatever became of Doctor Who?

Cast

*Martin — Sir Derek Jacobi
*Susan — Genevieve Swallow

Notes

Both of these productions also featured David Tennant. Jacqueline King later had a recurring role in the fourth series of the revived show as Sylvia Noble.

* Martin's scripts and dreams use plot elements from "An Unearthly Child", "The Daleks" and the unmade "Masters of Luxor"
