I love where this thread had drifted. Yeah, shocked, surprised, upset when I came home to find the forum gone. So happy we have found a place here.

Hi, New Member. Was/am a member of GB, but found myself mostly posting in the Big Finish sections. I was also starting the find some of the interaction very samey/predictable. I am one of those people who can be influenced by a single sentence in a comment/debate/review, etc, and find myself seeing things in a new light but so many people are so rigid in their feelings I'm amazed they ever join a message board in the first place. Also I'm not a big fan of the hate there is in fandom sometimes. Don't get me wrong there is plenty to be critical of in many things, and there are many elements of Doctor Who I am not fond of, but the blind dislike of things can be a bit much sometimes. I prefer to focus on what I enjoy than moan about what I don't. I was told of this place by a friend and have lurked for many months before finally deciding to sign up. I don't know how prolific I will be but there's a clear love of audio drama amongst you people, not just Doctor Who/Big Finish, and I am increasingly finding the medium very entertaining these days - just bought the BBC John Wyndham Collection for example. Go Softly On!!

It was about three years ago but think I was Googling BF reviews.

It was mentioned by a friend on another forum which must remain nameless. I'd never got involved with the original.

Hi! I'd seen bits of classic Who before 2005, but it was the new series which got me hooked.
I have a fair few of the classic DVDs, but I've probably got more of BF's CDs and downloads than those.
My favourite Doctor is Troughton, and Fraser's excellent performance as the 2nd Doctor is the only one of BF's recasts which I can get on board with. EDIT (over a year later): OK, I just heard Elliot Chapman as Ben Jackson and I was so convinced that I literally forgot Michael Craze had sadly died young decades ago.
I found this place by searching for “Big Finish Forum” after I saw in BF's FAQ that there used to be an official one. I figured there must be an unofficial replacement, and I was not disappointed.
(My search engine is DuckDuckGo, so I answered “other” to the survey because I am pedantic).

Tim Bradley gave me a link to it when I asked him about it after he mentioned it to me.

A link from the (very quiet) Big Finish Reddit page.

I was looking for something about BF's annual writing competition and I've found... something better! So happy to see that there is still something like DW message board

I was hunting for alternative Doctor Who forum to GB and this one came up in a google search. After lurking around for a few months I found I liked the vibe here and decided to join.
