DWM #396 reveals that the November release in the main Doctor Who range will follow the format previously used by Circular Time and 100 in being a release composed of four single episode adventures in time and space. And as it is the fourtieth fifth anniversary of Doctor Who in November, it will come as no suprise that the thematic link for this release will be the number 45.  The release will go by the title of ...  Forty Five.

No Doctors or Writers have been revealed yet for Forty Five but Nicholas Briggs did have the following to say on the future release -

''...Script editor Alan Barnes came up with the idea. We thought it was a good chance to work with some writers we hadn't worked with before. So expect some surprising and different stories...''

Sylvester McCoy will be joined by Terry Molloy as Magus Riga; Neil Roberts as Temeter and Kate Terence in September's Kingdom Of Silver. August's The Doomwood Curse meanwhile will see Six and Charlotte Pollard cross paths with the English highwayman, Dick Turpin. Nicholas Briggs also confirmed in Gallifrey Guardian that Big Finish's plans for Six and Charley had changed somewhat -

''....The pairing of Colin and India has worked brilliantly. So Brilliantly in fact, that we have altered our upcoming plans for the range. I'm delighted to reveal that our original idea to conclude tis partnership in December has been postponed, with Blue Forgotten Planet now being pushed back into 2009. We've more stories to tell with these two. So, the December 2008 slot has now been filled by a story provisionally entitled The Raincloud Man...''
