Recorded Time and Other Stories is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. As the 150th release, it is made of four one-part stories, by different authors, rather than the usual multi-part serial. All episodes feature the Sixth Doctor as played by Colin Baker and Peri Brown played by Nicola Bryant.
