If you go all out and spend over £50 you also get the 10% off. I couldn’t resist purchasing earlier releases that I already own just for the ease of having them available through the Big Finish app.....I might have a problem 😜 Some digital gap filling here as well.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

I'm glad this is happening for the next month or so. I can make a list and get the lot at my leisure. And with six weeks of holidays coming up...

Ah a nice long sale. Once my essays are out of the way I might pick up a few of the main range and maybe look at Dalek Empire.

Having them available via the Big Finish app is an added bonus for future re-listens.

Destiny of the Doctor,the stage plays and Iris Wildthyme are the only ones that I don't have.I'm not interested in Iris, thinking if I should get Destiny and the stage plays. Definitely get Destiny of the Doctor. I don't know about the plays but I'll be getting them. At this price I'll be getting almost everything I don't already have. And one or two I DO have (on CD only) for the ease of having BF downloads. I know Iris isn't to everyone's taste (I think she's brilliant, yaayy Katy! ) but the series 2 episodes they have on offer are well worth it for any 'Doctor Who' fan, being spoofs of the classic series in the 60s, 70s, 80s and the TV Movie. And at only 99p... What are the best 3 destiny of the Doctor titles? 'Vengeance of the Stones' tops my list, partly (but not only) because I'm a Third Doctor / UNIT fan. And I'm obviously not alone - that title is the only one flagged up as low CD stock.

As I expected, not much I don't own here, except Destiny of the Doctor and the Stage Plays. I'm not that interested in either of those.
But I'm picking up the only 3 of the early main range titles I didn't own yet: Creatures of Beauty, Nekromanteia, and The Mutant Phase. I was just waiting for them to be offered for 99 to get them. I figured it would happen eventually.

I have everything except Iris and have no interest in those. I do have Dalek Empire 3 and the Stage Plays from a Humble Bundle offer, so I may get these, just to have them from BF (if I can find a spare £10 or so).
I can heartily recommend I Davros to anyone who doesn't have them.
Cheers
Tony

I'm disinclined to get the latter anyway, but curious to hear what you think.

I'm disinclined to get the latter anyway, but curious to hear what you think. The Stage Plays are a product of their time and really only for completists (IMHO). I enjoyed Destiny ... They are Audiobooks, so not to everyone's taste but on the whole I enjoyed them - I like the tie-in plot between the stories and some were pretty good stories ( Shadows of Death, Vengeance of the Stones, Babblesphere, Smoke and Mirrors, Death's Deal). I paid £3.99 each and haven't regretted it but at £0.99 they are a steal. Cheers Tony

In addition to most of the ones you mentioned, I was considering Shockwave, cause I like Sophie Aldred's reading style. I hadn't considered Shadows of Death, actually. At the price, I might pick up some of these after all. I'm a completist, but not completist enough to get the stage plays, after two people on this thread used the same words to describe them: "a product of their time." Not a great recommendation.

Super duper.

I’m a bit disappointed as I expected a couple of titles outside of Doctor Who.. Well, it’s okay, i’ll get the first series of a few and sample them anyway

I personally like them all (especially The Curse of the Daleks and Seven Keys to Doomsday) but The Ultimate Adventure is Terrance Dicks writing for the 1980s, Seven Keys to Doomsday is almost a bog standard Doctor Who story, if a bit wacky, and the Curse of the Daleks feels like the predecessor to The Power of the Daleks. They are products of their times but in a good way of just plain fun.

Here is the physical collector in me wrapped in knots. I just bought the first two series. Do I just buy the final two digital only? I need to think about this one.

And with this sale, I have finally had to create a spreadsheet to keep up with which releases I've listened to.

Picked up the rest of the downloads of the 1-50 MR stories that I only had on CD and I also got The Davros Mission, which I had completely forgotten that I didn't have.
