Just finished downloaded it. Haven't started it yet but things I am already happy about: *The episodes are 1 hour long, not 45 minutes (as the technical details imply) *The Behind the Scenes uses the full 80 minutes allowed by audio CD (instead of the 60 usually seen)

Listened to Technophobia and I'm currently listening to Time Reaver. I must say, so far it's been great!

It's my day off tommorow, so I'll have plenty of time to listen to this set. I can't even believe this is happening!

I just downloaded and I had no idea about the extra extra The Audio Adventures of Doctor Who. Looking forward to see what that is.
And of course I can't wait to hear Ten/Donna again. Reviews have been really strong too.

Reviews have been really strong too. I heard about that and it just sounds like the standard documentary about Big Finish they've done on other releases such as The Toy (no offence intended to any Big Finish staff on here of course as I'm sure they put hard work into these documentaries).

Reviews have been really strong too. It's an Intro to Big Finish documentary where someone, probably Nick Briggs or David Richardson, gives a potted history of Doctor Who at Big Finish and looks at recent high profile releases. It's for people who have come to Big Finish via this release. Other places similar features have been include The Light at the End and a couple of Companion Chronicles released free through DWM in 2009 and 2010 (Mists of Time and Freakshow, currently available with The Three Companions in the CC Specials box set). There's a thread about this documentary here. It's a strong set of stories, and the various interviews (DWM, Vortex, promotional videos, the extras on the release itself) indicate David and Catherine had a great time catching up and reprising their roles of the Tenth Doctor and Donna. More is definitely welcome, but I get the feeling scheduling will be the main issue.

If just the announcement of this was able to crash the site, something only previously achieved by the actual release of Dark Eyes and Light at the End (the latter a month early!), then there will be lots of people coming to Big Finish through this. The documentary will be very helpful in giving some background to Big Finish as well as giving pointers for other releases newcomers may want to try. It's a shame Big Finish aren't endorsing a forum for these people. I can try get a plug for Divergent Universe in somehow, in an e-mail to the podcast perhaps, but I'm not sure how successful that will be. The website hasn't gone down yet, touch wood.

Cheers Tony Would it help if I went back in time to stop myself making that comment, and instruct my past self, when he reaches this point in time, to go back and deliver the same message? That would avoid a paradox, although the idea is still out there to tempt fate with. I'm lucky I downloaded it when I did. For all who can't get onto the website to do just that: it'll still be there when the website it back up and you are in for a treat!

Can anyone download through the BF app, or has the server in general gone into meltdown?

Finished Technophobia and thoroughly enjoyed it (even though I thought Catherine wasn't quite the same Donna I remember). David is superb, it's like he's never been away and the music is so reminiscent of the era too. In fact I was trying to get on the website to see who had done the music when I noticed it was down. Cheers Tony EDIT: Can anyone download through the BF app, or has the server in general gone into meltdown? I can't even log in using the Android App, so the whole kaboodle could have gone into meltdown.
