Journey into Time (unreleased audio story)

 was the first audio drama based upon Doctor Who, though it was never given official release.

A pilot made for a planned 52-instalment radio series, it was never broadcast, nor did it lead to a series. Since all recordings were lost, and the work was never broadcast so that fans could have potentially recorded it, little beyond the script and a few trade advertisements remain. The first publication of the Malcolm Hulke script was in a 2012 Nothing at the End of the Lane publication. Richard Bignell discovered the script in a routine perusal of the BBC Archives in the early 2010s. The BBC's note of rejection, written by Martin Esslin, head of sound drama in the late 1960s, was:
 * "As a typical commercial production for unsophisticated listeners in Australia or even some parts of the United States, it stands up quite well. As a piece of science fiction, however, it strikes me as extremely feeble."

Although the story was advertised as starring Peter Cushing, and he had played the theatrical film version of Dr. Who before, it's decidedly certain that he would not actually have been playing the same version of the character in this series. Certainly, there is no precedent in either film or television of the time for a character called "Mike". However, as it was never officially released, this story does not pass Rule 4 of this Wiki's four little rules and is consequently considered invalid.

Along with Absent Friends and City of the Saved, both of which were also in the audio play medium, this is one of only three performed Whoniverse-related stories known to be fully recorded, but never get an official release of any kind.
