The Doctor Who Fan Audio Adventures (DWFAA) is an audio drama series created and led by Wesley McCammon and Colin Nossek (May 31st 2014); and follows an unknown future incarnation of the Doctor and their various companions. The series attempts to be darker than the original TV show and, despite its use of humour, is known for creating moments of moral complexity.
Synopsis[]
'A large green ocean splashed upon blue sand'
- warning, contains spoilers*
The series follows the continuing adventures of a future incarnation of the Doctor and his current companion Jenni; (who has followed other companions such as E'lan and Aaron) as they travel around the universe visiting different planets and time zones.
Series 1 began in may 2014 with the Doctor, (played by Tom Dix) a serious man who is willing to do anything for the greater good, along with his two companions, E'lan (played by Tif Brown), an alien princess from the planet Kalixa, and Aaron (Ethan Cronin) a regular teenage boy. After Aaron dies at the hands of the Fendahl, and Elan decides to head back to her planet, one thousand years before it was destroyed.
The Doctor picks up a new companion, Jenni (Amber Wilkinson), a rather sarcastic twenty-something year old from the south west of England.
Due to an experiment gone wrong, the Doctor is tasked with saving the Daemon's planet, however chooses to let the planet be destroyed instead of risking the rest of the universe. This act is seen as potentially heartless and leads to a tense relationship between the Doctor and Jenni.
Series 2 (beginning 5th Febuary 2015) was a single two parter, following a Cyberman invasion of Jenni's village. While the Doctor is able to defeat the Cybermen, it cost him his life, causing him to regenerate.
Series 3 (beginning Febuary 2016) continues the adventures of Jenni and the newly regenerated Doctor (played by Joe Oliver), as they further explore the universe and run into trouble.

The Doctor[]
While from the distant future, The Doctor is the same old Time Lord, however with age has come both stubbornness and enemies During Series 1, the Doctor is shown to be a no nonsense protector of the universe. While this means he often gives no second chances, he is always trying to the right thing, no matter what his stubborn personality might say.
Series 3, the Doctor has regenerated, and is a little different. Truly a mad man with a box, while more caring, this version of the Doctor is incredibly eccentric, often greeting his enemy's with a 'Hello!'
