The Minister of Chance:
www.ministerofchance.com/
The Minister of Chance is a Doctor Who spin-off audio series which in itself was spun-off from the BBC 2001/02 audio story Death Comes to Time which originally feature The Minister of Chance, a Time Lord and the character was originated by Stephen Fry.
Fry however does not reprise the character for the Minister of Chance spin-off and the character (perhaps undergoing a regeneration) is played instead by Julian Wadham (who recently been cast to play another character on audio that previously been played by someone else that of John Steed for Big Finish’s audio remake of the lost episodes of The Avengers).
Also in The Minister of Chance series are Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann (neither of whom plays the Doctor here although McCoy was the Doctor in Death Comes to Time), Jenny Agutter, Paul Darrow and Philip Glenister (and the presence of Philip Glenister here means I am now able to count him as a Whoniverse contributor).
The Minister of Chance episodes are available to download as a podcast from the aforementioned site and the episode order can be found here:

The Pointed Hand:
Prologue.
This episode features Paul McGann as Durian and the rulers in the land he visits are not very pleasant people.
Pretty intriguing beginning to the series with this episode presenting a grim outlook of the series.
