Doctor Who: Fugitive Doctor & Master Adventures Getting New Audio Dramas
Big Finish has confirmed the adventures of Jo Martin's Fugitive Doctor and Sacha Dhawan's Master will continue in two ongoing Doctor Who audio-drama series. Current Doctor Who showrunner Chris Chibnall's tenure is coming to an end, and nobody can fault him for his ambition — he's upended decades of continuity by rewriting the Doctor's origin story, revealing she is not a Time Lord at all. Rather, she is the Timeless Child, a being who originates from another universe and who became the base genetic code for the entire Time Lord race.
This means there has been literally a billion years' worth of unseen Doctor Who adventures, with Chibnall introducing one forgotten incarnation of the Doctor — Jo Martin's so-called "Fugitive Doctor." There are still many mysteries about the Fugitive Doctor, some of which will be explained in an upcoming comic book miniseries by Titan Comics. Others will hopefully be resolved in the upcoming Doctor Who Centenary Special, with Martin confirmed to be returning. But all that has naturally left viewers wondering what's next for this popular, mysterious Doctor when Chibnall has left and incoming showrunner Russell T. Davies returns to take over.

His series, appropriately enough, will bear the title Call Me Master — an allusion to the episode «Spyfall,» in which Dhawan made his debut.
