The series began in [[1998 (releases)|1998]] with audio adaptations of six [[Virgin New Adventures]] novels. After this first season's success, Big Finish began producing audio stories and prose stories simultaneously. These were initially released alternately so that both the audio and the prose made up one continuous series, with some of the wider arc stories only being featured and explained in detail in one medium. For example, Bernice's pregnancy began and ended in the novels ''[[The Gods of the Underworld (novel)|The Gods of the Underworld]]'' and ''[[The Glass Prison (novel)|The Glass Prison]]'', but the audio stories made several minor references to her pregnancy. However, this practice ceased after the third series.

Initially, the ongoing narrative was spread evenly between the two media - for instance, Benny became pregnant in the novel ''[[The Squire's Crystal (novel)|The Squire's Crystal]]'' and gave birth in the novel ''[[The Glass Prison (novel)|The Glass Prison]]'', with the audio stories making several minor references to her pregnancy. However, from the third series onward, the audio stories became the primary series, with novels and short story collections providing greater depth to the world and heavily expanding on the large cast of regular characters. Occasionally, however, prose stories would be integral to the overall narrative, such as the audio story ''[[Death and the Daleks]]'' continuing on directly from the anthology ''[[Life During Wartime]]'', and the regular characters [[Hass]] and [[Doggles]] being introduced in the anthologies ''[[A Life Worth Living]]'' and ''[[Something Changed]]'' respectively. When [[Simon Guerrier]] took over as executive producer for Series 7, he made an effort to better combine the audio and prose stories, featuring hitherto prose-only characters in audio and incorporating prose-featured events, such as the death of semi-regular character [[Clarissa Jones|Ms Jones]] in the anthology ''[[Parallel Lives]]'', into the overall story arc.
−
Many characters created or established in the Virgin New Adventures, such as [[Jason Kane]] and [[Irving Braxiatel]], made major appearances in this series. Most of the stories cover Bernice's life following her departure from travelling with the Doctor. However, several prose releases have featured stories that portrayed Bernice's life long before she met the Doctor.

Many characters created or established in the Virgin New Adventures, such as [[Jason Kane]] and [[Irving Braxiatel]], made major appearances in this series, and several others, such as [[Wolsey]], [[Isaac Summerfield]] and [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]], were featured in occasional stories. Additionally, links were made with Big Finish's ''Doctor Who'' content, such as the character of [[Bev Tarrant]] crossing over from the [[Main Range]] to become a regular character.

The series concluded in [[2013 (releases)|2013]], but it was relaunched the [[2014 (releases)|next year]] as ''[[The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield (audio series)|The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield]]''.

Several authors who wrote for Benny at Virgin also contributed to the line. Writers like Matt Jones, Paul Cornell, Justin Richards, Lance Parkin, Dave Stone, Ben Aaronovtich, Daniel O'Mahony, Lawrence Miles, Mark Clapham and Gary Russell had at least one story produced.

RealWorld

Bernice Summerfield was the first series produced by Big Finish Productions, combining both audio and prose releases in an ongoing narrative, with the titular character portrayed by Lisa Bowerman.

The series began in 1998 with audio adaptations of six Virgin New Adventures novels. After this first season's success, Big Finish began producing audio stories and prose stories simultaneously.

Initially, the ongoing narrative was spread evenly between the two media - for instance, Benny became pregnant in the novel The Squire's Crystal and gave birth in the novel The Glass Prison, with the audio stories making several minor references to her pregnancy. However, from the third series onward, the audio stories became the primary series, with novels and short story collections providing greater depth to the world and heavily expanding on the large cast of regular characters. Occasionally, however, prose stories would be integral to the overall narrative, such as the audio story Death and the Daleks continuing on directly from the anthology Life During Wartime, and the regular characters Hass and Doggles being introduced in the anthologies A Life Worth Living and Something Changed respectively. When Simon Guerrier took over as executive producer for Series 7, he made an effort to better combine the audio and prose stories, featuring hitherto prose-only characters in audio and incorporating prose-featured events, such as the death of semi-regular character Ms Jones in the anthology Parallel Lives, into the overall story arc.

Many characters created or established in the Virgin New Adventures, such as Jason Kane and Irving Braxiatel, made major appearances in this series, and several others, such as Wolsey, Isaac Summerfield and Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart, were featured in occasional stories. Additionally, links were made with Big Finish's Doctor Who content, such as the character of Bev Tarrant crossing over from the Main Range to become a regular character.

Several authors who wrote for Benny at Virgin also contributed to the line. Writers like Matt Jones, Paul Cornell, Justin Richards, Lance Parkin, Dave Stone, Ben Aaronovtich, Daniel O'Mahony, Lawrence Miles, Mark Clapham and Gary Russell had at least one story produced.

Most of the stories cover Bernice's life following her departure from travelling with the Doctor. However, several prose releases have featured stories that portrayed Bernice's life long before she met the Doctor.

The series concluded in 2013, but it was relaunched the next year as The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield, where she was briefly reunited with the Seventh Doctor and Ace, before teaming up with an incarnation of the Doctor from an alternate universe.
