For the past few season of Doctor Who, Big Finish has put a title on sale for that weekend with some thematic link to the episode that just aired. So, what do you predict will be chosen for each of the next twelve episodes? Probably some stories with the Master, Daleks, Cybermen and Ice Warriors, but what else? One thing I'll be keeping in mind, the annoying Per Order Charge. Not that I should be buying more CDs at this point in time anyway. Episode | Story | The Pilot | Storm Warning, The Crimes of Thomas Brewster, Persuasion, Criss-Cross | Smile | The Masters of Luxor, Exotron, Robophobia, Flywheel Revolution
| Thin Ice | Frostfire, Thin Ice, Kiss of Death, Equilibrium
| Knock Knock | The Haunting of Thomas Brewster, The Cloisters of Terror, Jago & Litefoot & Strax: The Haunting, The Ghost Trap
| Oxygen | TBC (13 May) | Extremis | TBC (20 May)
| The Pyramid at the End of the World | TBC (27 May)
| The Lie of the Land | TBC (3 June)
| The Empress of Mars | TBC (10 June)
| The Eaters of Light | TBC (17 June)
| World Enough and Time | TBC (24 June)
| The Doctor Falls | TBC (1 July) |

Regards mark687 They did these for series 8 and 9, and Doctor birthday sales have become something we know will happen, like with Peter Davison's birthday sale on currently. The refusal to confirm nor deny sounds like the stock answer to such inquiries.

If they don't put Thin Ice on sale after episode 3 then they are insane.

Well this is the first time I can remember no news item by midday, so I think that increases the chance of a new series sale to be announced after the episode airs.

The theme for The Pilot is companion debuts, with Storm Warning, The Crimes of Thomas Brewster, Persuasion and Criss-Cross where we first met Charley, Flip, Will Arrowsmith and Miss Constance Clark (the latter actually debuted in The Sixth Doctor: The Last Adventure). www.bigfinish.com/news/v/doctor-who---new-series-special-offers

guy anyone who don't have storm warning...... get it now while it's next to nothing. its one story any big finish collection should not be without. Definitely. And don't miss Criss-Cross, a brilliant, complex WWII espionage 'movie' set around the Bletchley codebreakers, with added aliens - including the Sixth Doctor. The first full story for Constance Clarke and my favourite Constance story to date; great writing by Matt Fitton. Colin Baker and Miranda Raison are superb and their characters spark off each other from the first scene. A perfect 'debut' story for a new companion, for me the best MR of 2015 by some distance.

Another sale for which I already owned everything. It's getting harder and harder to take advantage of these sales.

"Smile" - I'm guessing "The Juggernauts", because the setup sounds a bit like the Mechanoids being sent to build a planet before the population arrive, or things with robots generally.
They've promised Ice Warriors and Mondasian Cybermen, so we can probably expect to have suitable audio plays on sale for those episodes (probably not "Spare Parts", but perhaps the eighth Doctor and Mary Shelley one).
And possibly the Master trilogy? Or is that too recent?

If they don't put Thin Ice on sale after episode 3 then they are insane. And maybe River Song Vol. 2 (incl. World Enough and Time) after ep 11, World Enough and Time.
