2: Square One. Now this is terrific, terrific stuff! I'm not sure who the character of Kenneth LaBlanc might be based upon, but I'm sure it will come to me! His final line, the line that rounded off this excellent episode, had me actually cheering. Such clever, relevant writing and great performances - both funny and tragic, and witty and frightening all at once. I've never invested in the UNIT series before now, and was drawn to this due to The ... whatever-they-re-called, but I might well be getting more of these in future.
This and 'Survivors' (as well as the 3DA set and 'Order of the Daleks') have made this a great month for fans of Big Finish.

I though this did a great job both adapting the monsters to audio, and coming up with ways for the good guys to reckon with them in spite of the challenge. It also struck me as a rather well-paced audio, and one with engaging performances. I think I probably enjoyed it the most of the range thus far, although I did much enjoy the previous UNIT releases.

Interesting choice in pacing, with the prelude, the Trump commentary and the endgame, all taking place months apart.

If you can afford it at some stage ,i recommend boxsets 1 and 2, you will not be disappointed.

Series 1, titled Extinction and featuring the Autons, is on sale until the end of the month.

Series 1 on sale, you say ... ?

All puns aside, I enjoyed this set and thought the Silence were well realised on audio. I just wonder if they talked too much. I don't remember them saying anything.

Fantastic box set. Dare I say, unforgettable ? :Moves out of the way:
There's a wonderful relish at play here throughout with The Silence (I can't help but wonder if this was amongst the first of the revival releases pllanned). That's not to say that the love never fails, but there's such a joy at hand throughout these releases. Nice to see Big Finish also bring to the forth many a fan's (and an original series lens) concern about The Doctor's actions in The Day of The Moon. And that plan! Big Finish's ingenuity never fails to impress. Nick Brigg's Silence captures Marnix van den Broeke makes their transition from screen to audio seaminsly. Our heroes continuously on the backfoot was unnerving, particularly in The Doctor's absence.
I didn't have as much of an issue with Carter's. It's early days in the series so far. Plenty of time to go through the 'character stuck in the same situation again' without it seeming like retreading old ground.
Ohh, the dark little jab at Youtube culture was hilarious.

I really enjoyed episode 3 not least because it seemed to be taking dibs at a certain American President (but maybe that was just a coincidence)
But I swearI did not remember Josh Carter being brainwashed and taken by the Silenced in previous stories. Maybe this boxset really has been messing with my brain.
Well one more to go!

Maybe this boxset really has been messing with my brain. Well one more to go! It was in the first story when he busts out of the house, surviving due to his plastic legs from Extinction. It must be this resilience that the Silence note, and his UNIT connections make him a prime candidate as a mole within UNIT.
