A new Doctor Who audio series is set to delve into the fate of River Song beyond her death, with Alex Kingston reprising her role in the Whoniverse. Kingston first appeared as the companion and eventual wife to the Doctor in the two-part adventure 'Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead' in season 4. While subsequent appearances explored her intricate relationship with the Time Lord, River's story seemingly concluded with her sacrifice to save others trapped in the Library's computer core.
Doctor Who season 14 is scheduled to premiere in May, but fans can look forward to a new narrative arc for the character as Big Finish announces 'The Death and Life of River Song', a fresh series of audio dramas led by Kingston. The first box set, 'Last Words', picks up after the events of her season 4 debut, with River finding herself in a new artificial body in the distant future.
