12PM UK Time.
For the next 24 hours, you can get a bargain on the first Jago & Litefoot set...
"Corks!"
Released in June 2010, Jago & Litefoot - Series 1 was the first release in a series which this year enters its thirteenth volume, and which was kicked off by Andy Lane's exciting and affectionate Doctor Who - Companion Chronicle entitled The Mahogany Murderers. This title, incidentally, is our March Listeners title and available all month on Download for just £2.99.
Series 1 contains stars Christopher Benjamin, Trevor Baxter, Lisa Bowerman, Conrad Asquith and Toby Longworth, in stories written by Justin Richards, Alan Barnes, Jonathan Morris and Andy Lane: The Bloodless Soldier, The Bellova Devil, The Spirit Trap and The Similarity Engine.
Jago & Litefoot - Series 1 is available until mid-day (UK time) on Thursday 2nd March for just £5 on Download and £6 for the five CD boxed set in celebration of last Sunday's 40th anniversary of the broadcast of episode one of Doctor Who - The Talons of Weng-Chiang.
Keep an eye out for more Jago & Litefoot news in the month: already Christopher Benjamin is the subject of an interview in the most recent Big Finish Podcast, while we recently announced the March and April releases of two Doctor Who - Short Trips in which Jago & Litefoot recount an encounter with the Tenth Doctor

Okay, as a US customer, I haven't bought any physical media since the 'per order charge' was added (since I tend to order smaller, and the extra $8 made that not worth it). That said, this is well beyond a bargain, even with the order charge (about $19.25 or so). Series one is a cracking start to the series, to boot!
Funny enough, my only issue with the series is the starter; while I love The Bloodless Soldier, it's a bit of a downbeat start to the season. When I recommended the series to a friend way back, I had them start with The Mahogany Murderers instead, since it is pretty much a pilot episode (luckily I have that one on CD already!).
If there's anyone who hasn't heard this excellent series yet and is curious, jump on this sale (And while you're at it, nab The Mahogany Murderers since it's the listeners title!).

If I didn't already have this I'd be buying it. For those who haven't heard any of the Jago & Litefoot, if you are getting this, grab the Mahogany Murderers at the same time.

Seriously! That's a great price. I think I have to buy it now. Yes you do, what a bargain! And J & L are ace I bought more recent box sets in the last J&L sale on the theory that older box sets are more likely to go on sale than later ones, so this works out exactly according to my plan.  |

Wait, you're supposed to say "I love it when a plan comes together" with a cigar in your mouth. |

Huh, I was always undecided on J&L but I suppose I have to at least give it a try now...

The prices have always deterred me from really getting into the Jago & Litefoot even though I like the characters. Now thanks to this sale I got a whole boxset for a fiver!

'Corks' just about sums it up. What a bargain.
Now, can I persuade myself to make the move to downloads? Tempting...
CD Demon: "The boxset is only £1 more..."
Download Demon: "Think of the £2.50 shipping as well, that's £3.50 saved if you switch, more than a Short Trip for free..."
CD Demon: "You know you like having CDs..."
Download Demon: "It's the story that counts, the message not the medium..."
CD Demon: "The artwork looks so good when you take the case from the shelf..."
Download Demon: "But they don't even give you a proper booklet now..."
Hmmmm...

Heck, I paid 22.50 for the first box set (download) a couple of years ago and thought it was worth it at that price. So this is a definite "must" for anyone who wants to try J&L out.

They're still at it...
CD Demon: "Don't all those lovely CDs look satisfying arranged in order like that..."
Download Demon: "Is it scientific to pay more to hear the same story delivered on older technology? WHAT WOULD THE DOCTOR DO?"
CD Demon: "Curses!!" (Disappears in a puff of plastic smoke)
Download Demon: "My work here is done... Download and prosper..."

Update: Of course I bought and yes, it was the download. I've only been on DU for two weeks and already owe you for this flash sale notice and recommendations for the massive 51-125 sale.  |
