Having trouble accessing the passcode interstitial page too. The newsletter link just takes you to the page with the action button (download/add to basket) remaining hidden.
Yet 11 customers have 'liked' it? Does it work for some?

Yet 11 customers have 'liked' it? Does it work for some? Possibly... although the eleven 'likes' could also be from people who like everything out of principle... or maybe they just like the idea of it even if they can't access it?

Or perhaps even clicking "like" in a desperate attempt to figure out which button gets you access to the audio!

Listened to episode 1 and I *really* enjoyed it! I admittedly was never really onboard with the whole recasting thing and wasn't exactly blown away by what little I'd heard from the earlier Third Doctor releases. But they've really hit their groove here! Tim Treloar's Third Doctor has moved forward by leaps and bounds and I loved his Pertwee-esque mannerisms that he worked into his performance (especially the quiet chuckle). His take bounces off perfectly against Jon Culshaw's superb performance as Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart (I couldn't help but grin when Culshaw nailed the inflection of "Miss Grant"). With Katy Manning in the mix, those early scenes really do feel like 1973! Daisy Ashford's voice doesn't really sound like Liz Shaw, but it's immediately clear that she approached the role with great care. Even though her tone is different, she does a phenomenal job of matching the cadence, making her first scene with the Doctor and Jo immediately warm and familiar. The episode hooked me in right away! {Spoiler}I loved how the Brigadier's mission inevitably intersected with the Doctor's plans and Jo's insecurities about meeting Liz were played really well and didn't overstay their welcome. The way she greeted Liz and was determined to hold her own was beyond charming and sweet. This would have been marvelous to see in the series proper.
Turning prisoners into Primords for nefarious purposes is one thing, but the surprise of Liz and her experiments led to a perfectly-executed Series 7-style cliffhanger.
So...I think this freebie did the job, because it convinced to pick up the rest of the set!

With Primrod EP 1 Released via BF Newsletter I think Spoiler Posts are OK from this point.

I have listened to the free episode last night. While it was nice to hear all these characters again, I am still not quite sold on it. I think I wait and see what the verdict is from all of you. I do not know why, but listening to this first episode, {Spoiler} somehow the actions of Liz are rubbing me the wrong way. I find it distinctly out of character for her doing this research. If it should turn out that she is, without knowing, working with/ for the bad guys, I am not sure that would work for me... she is, after all, very clever and I assume she has learned quite a lot from her time with the Doctor and would build on that. I just have been listening to "The last post" again and somehow the Liz there and the Liz here do not fit together... But maybe I am wrong and everything is resolved in the rest of the story . As for the recast of the Brigadier... not sure to be honest, Jon Culshaw is undeniably good, but he is not Nicholas Courtney, who had a very distinctive voice.

A clip has been uploaded to Facebook from the first episode. I think Daisy sounds fantastic as Liz! She's not the same, but then neither's Tim Treloar, so I'm really looking forward to Wednesday

Since I have my virtual fingers in my ears and my eyes shut in case of spoilers I wouldn't know but I'll take your words for it!
With some effort I've managed no trailers, no clips, no preview episode, no synopses even... but oh yes I'm getting very impatient for Wednesday morning's DL to materialise...

Listening to Primoid right now and planning on listening to both stories by the end of the night, and since I have the joy of review copies, I won't say any more than this is so far the strongest ensemble piece I've heard from Big Finish ever.

Can't wait to hear this especially Primoid because my favourite writer John Dorney has wrote his Third Doctor debut audio drama.

Primoid
Exactly the kind of set up I'd imagied would be good with those elements.
Ms Ashford's done her Mum proud, more Liz and the Brig would be very welcome.
The Scream of Ghosts
More traditional but still very good Regards
