Can't help but feel Big Finish need to get better at this kind of thing? I believe that's Torchwood and all three Tenth Doctor sets leaked this way...

The judoon were quite good in the sarah jane adventures from what i remember, and funny so i think they can work when they arent being played straight.

Should i then give the Judoon a chance? I just felt they were loud and Blah blah So you heard their appearance alongside Sixie in the Classic Doctors, New Monsters set? I agree that the Judoon weren't terribly interesting when they debuted on television, but a good writer can take a so-so start and craft something clever.

Hmm... if this is true I will also get this! Donna is so much better than Rose; and then.. Wilf! Although I have to say the previous 10th Doctor releases, while not bad, were not the best or my favorite works from Big Finish. I think somehow something was missing, maybe it needed longer, connected stories like in the 8th Doctor sets.
And I alsolutely agree, Judoon in Chains was great! But I liked the Classic Doctors/ New Monsters sets in general, because they gave new facettes to these aliens. The Judoon and especially the Sontarans got some added depth and were used as more than just comic relief and one-trick ponies.
So if this new box set is on par with the writing of Judoon in Chains, this might be the best 10th Doctor release so far. There is hope.

I'm so glad to have this forum and all the lovely people who call this place home. In my excitement I posted the image to the Big Finish Listener Facebook page this morning and as I write this I am no longer a member of the group. I think my favorite comment for why I should not have posted it is that in doing so I was hurting the feelings of everyone connected with this production. Or something like that. Anyway, thank you all for being fantastic.

I think my favorite comment for why I should not have posted it is that in doing so I was hurting the feelings of everyone connected with this production. Or something like that. Anyway, thank you all for being fantastic. Not sure if I understand this right. Were you banned for "leaking" this? Also not sure why this would hurt the feelings of the people in this production?
I just tried it out myself with the url on the Big Finish page (as described above) and it also works for me, so it appears to be already uploaded to the Big Finish website. So either a) this is an oversight/ glitch b) this was a lazy upload of a too trusting employee c) they secretly wanted it to be found because even computer near illiterates like me can access it. To neither of the above I can attribute any resulting hurt feelings. And everybodies thoughts on here were very positive and enthusiastic.
And nothing bad has happened, it is not an episode itself that was leaked, but a picture.
So yeah, not sure you should feel bad about this.

I don’t feel bad about. The reason I left the group is because a number of people there thought I had done something wrong by posting it. So when the feelings comment was made along with a couple of others, I removed myself from the group. I probably should not have said anything here but I do appreciate the people of this forum and wanted to express that.

Hopefully Big Finish is getting used to these things, if it's not leaky fans it's Peter Davison shouting it from the rooftops or something. :-)
At least the faithful fans on DU have the opportunity to set aside the funds for an official announcement, and it's made an awesome news week out of what seemed like a really slow one after all the big news we've had lately.

(It doesn't sound very much like a nice group to be part of anyway if that's how they are going to behave.)

One or two people decide they don’t like something and the masses have to start piling on. When almost all of my responses started with expletives, I knew it was time to go.

I didn't even see your post over there - or the responses - as I was offline most of the day. It seems to have been deleted.

Very excited! Was hoping for Freema, though... Martha's the most practically useful of 10's companions with her medical training, and I'd be excited for BF to tell a story that makes strong use of her skills the way they've made use of Mel's computer programming. Heck, BF could do a story where Martha rejoins the Doctor after she leaves UNIT during his two-year gap, and have her be more super-spy-y. Heck, BF could also bring in Noel Clarke and provide some background to Mickey and Martha's otherwise bewildering romance. But I guess Freema's still too busy to / not interested in returning. Still. Wilf!

Oh am sure she is lined up...do not expect BF to miss a trick. I enjoyed Donnas stories and am sure when she is in full swing they can only get better.I thought Cold Vengeance and Sword were wonderfully era perfect.Infamy i actually have still to listen to (i feel its probably jokey)not a fan of Jokey but am sure i will be proved wrong.Freema cant wait. Hmm. Somehow, Infamy was my favorite of the bunch. Jackey saved it for me. And it was quite a clever story idea. The others were much too standard stories and I was a bit disappointed by the set to be honest. As I said, maybe the 10th Doctor needs longer story arcs like the 8th Doctor has.

Nicks been known to tell porky pies, probably means Freemas recorded some audios & he's trying to throw fan's off the scent.
