'The Nox' was originally going to be part of a story that would have celebrated the 40th anniversary of Doctor Who. This small segment would have been part of a story called 'Fractures of Infinity'.
Basically, Fractures of Infinity, would have brought together three of the fan Doctor Who productions. However, although the project got started, for various reasons Fractures never came about...
For me this was a grave disappointment because it would have been a great way for the various fan groups to take part of a celebration of Doctor Who 40th anniversary.
Now I did have most of the lines for the Nox segment of Fractures in. And for the most part they sat on my hard drive for more than a year. A few weeks ago I began looking over everything that had come in and came to the conclusion that with a little re-working, Nox could very easily stand on it's own as a Doctor Who story. However the episodes would be very short.
This is because Nox was meant to part to a lot more going on in various different scene with the other Doctors and what they would come up against.
So although Fractures of Infinity did not see the light of day, Doctor Who: The Nox now does. So enjoy this little part to a grand Doctor Who adventure that sadly never was.
