Cubicle 7 Games revealed that they have released the Second Edition of Doctor Who: The Roleplaying Game, available for pre-order.

Wherever or Whenever it might take you. You can pre-order the PDF version now via the publisher's website, and you can also pre-order the two physical books as well as they have the Standard Edition (which you can see the cover of here) or the Collector's Edition, which you can see below.
