Hi Everyone, I run the Tomstardis Awards which celebrates all the good stuff that Big Finish has done over the course of the previous twelve months. There are several categories that cover many ranges from the Main Range to the Jago and Litefoot range to Survivors. This is the 10th Tomstardis Awards and I have posted on this forum many times over the years and I have always gotten some great responses. Not every range that Big Finish do has been covered. The main rule is that is has to have a link to the main Doctor Who range but there are a few exceptions such as Survivors, The Avengers and The Prisoner. I have tried to make it easier to vote by having each range get its own page so that if there is a range that you haven't listened to then you do have to scroll past it. To vote just click here linkVoting will close on January 15th at 6pm GMT. Winners will be announced shortly afterwards. It just remains for me to say thankyou for taking the time to vote and I look forward to seeing who comes out on top. |

The first update (of many). There have been close to 300 votes cast so far and as of writing I think most of December releases have been made available except for the Short Trips release. I wont made a list of the leaders at the moment but there are some surprising results.
Another update in a few days.

I thought so 'till hearing Quicksilver which started very quickly as a 10/10 and then got better from there I''ve checked out all of the sections for the Main Range awards, and I can't vote for any of them at the moment... not even the cover designer. It was that good a year for the Main Range! |

I had a really hard time with some of these. In fact, I'm going to have to go back to vote for some of them. I thought the Torchwood audios were extremely hard to choose from.

I tend to keep it to Doctor Who related stories and a few ranges that I have listened to. If there is enough interest then I might include other ranges. Maybe even in this years awards.

I understand if it was only Doctor Who but it seems a bit strange to include some Non-Who stuff but not all of it. Just my two cents. |

Thanks for adding the Dark Shadows poll, much appreciated! Not that I want to trouble anyone to add a "Best Monster" category (or something like that) to Classic Doctors, New Monsters but I really must say I think Nick deserves an award or three for his most awesome Judoon.
