WORK Day's first published fiction was the novel '' The Menagerie '' in 1995 , published by Virgin Publishing as part of their ''Doctor Who'' '' Missing Adventures '' series. Following the withdrawal of Virgin's licence to produce ''Doctor Who'' novels, Day moved to BBC Books , who published the novel '' The Devil Goblins From Neptune '' in 1997 . The novel (co-written with Keith Topping ) was the first of BBC Books' Past Doctor Adventures series, and was quickly followed by '' The Hollow Men '' in 1998 - again written with Topping. 1998 also saw the publication of '' Another Girl, Another Planet '' by Virgin Publishing. Co-written with Steve Bowkett (under the Pseudonym Len Beech), this was one of the first books in Virgin's line of Bernice Summerfield novels. Following these novels, Day returned to solo writing, and to the Past Doctor Adventures range in 2001 with the novel '' Bunker Soldiers ''. This was followed in 2004 by the novel '' The Sleep Of Reason '', one of the final Eighth Doctor Adventures to be published and perhaps his most popular novel. Between 2000 and 2001 Day wrote nine episodes for Five 's ''Family Affairs'', and in 2005 he started writing for BBC One 's ''Doctors''. As well as writing fiction, Day has also written several unofficial guide books to television series such as '''' and '' The Avengers ''. These were published by Virgin, and co-written with Keith Topping and (with the exception of ''Shut It!'', a guide to '' The Sweeney '' and '' The Professionals '') Paul Cornell . Cornell, Day and Topping also wrote the extremely popular ''Doctor Who Discontinuity Guide'', published by Virgin in 1995 as a light-hearted guide to the mistakes and incongruities of the television series. The first book written by Cornell, Day and Topping was ''Classic British TV'', which was released by Guinness Publishing in 1993 and 1996 . Recently Day has continued his work on ''Doctor Who'', with the play '' No Man's Land '' for Big Finish Productions ' Audio Adventures range, the novel Wooden Heart for the BBC's range of New Series Adventures , and comic strips for Doctor Who Adventures .
