In April 2023, it was reported that a series similar to Doctor Who Confidential would premiere alongside the 60th anniversary specials of the main show. Following this at a GalaxyCon event, David Tennant made references to a behind-the-scenes crew on the set of the specials, stating that "it was all filmed by all the various Doctor Who Confidential-style people, so you'll see all that. But it was very exciting for us, for them to visit us on set."[1]
On 27 September 2023, Unleashed was officially announced, and was set to air on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer in 30 minute episodes, presented on set by former Newsbeat presenter Steffan Powell in contrast to the fly on the wall style of Confidential.[2]
^Standard episodes of Unleashed are titled after the episode discussed; while this episode concerns "Destination: Skaro", it is titled as "Children in Need".
