Actor Alex Kingston's character River Song will cross paths with the Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann) in a new series of "Doctor Who" audio plays.
Kingston will reprise her role as the time-travelling archaeologist in "Doctor Who: Doom Coalition 2" from Big Finish Productions, reported Digital Spy.
Best known for their audio plays based on the classic Doctor Who series, Big Finish have recently begun branching out into new series material with the upcoming box-set UNIT: Extinction starring Jemma Redgrave (Kate Stewart) and Ingrid Oliver (Osgood).
"Doom Coalition 2" will be released in March 2016 - with Kingston joined by McGann, plus Nicola Walker and Hattie Morahan as the Doctor's companions Liv Chenka and Helen Sinclair.
River will then return later in 2016 with her own spinoff series - "Doctor Who: The Diary of River Song", a four-hour adventure which will again feature McGann in its final installment.
