Ok that’s enough temptation for me to get Ravenous 3 with the Ravenous 2 I wanted to hear beforehand. The price otherwise for Ravenous 2 was eye watering. Also picked up a couple of Short Trips (Devil’s Footprints and Astrea Conspiracy) to reach £50 and the 10% discount that counts towards my postage. So yup, happy with that.
I have passed on Ravenous 1, but that looks less essential and also gets mixed reviews. I don’t think for now I’m going to listen to Ravenous 4. But I really, really wanted to hear number 3, but knew I should hear 2 first, and that was way too much.

I'm kiiiind of tempted by the Tony and Cassandra Mysteries because I like the characters, but I find my attention drifts when it's a Dark Shadows story that's not actually set in Collinsport...

Am solely tempted by either Torchwood One: Machines or UNIT 7...but I have spent a fair bit on sales lately and do intend to do a big pre-order at some point.
Well least it’s a long sale to give me time to give in as per usual.

I'm tempted, also. At least one set. I listened to the free sample a while ago and it was good. Held my attention just fine. |

Just noticed War Master 2 has been added. I’m guessing this was initially missed out as it was in the Scribe Awards offer.

I have succumbed and bought the Eleventh Doctor Chronicles set, because I miss the Eleventh Doctor and think I will be waiting forever for Matt Smith to return to the role.
I have also succumbed and purchased it as download only..!
(I feel so ashamed)
I have always considered myself a diehard CD purchaser, but now having a company car without a CD player (Hey Mercedes where’s the CD player?), a small house with far too many CD storage cabinets in it already (I honestly cannot think of where I can put another one) and the Big Finish app being so good I think more of my purchases will be download only.
But I have started so I will continue to buy several ranges on CD, they will just be like the last Ravenous 3 boxset that went away without me even taking the cellophane off!
Sorry I went off on a tangent there - Yay new Eleventh Doctor stories to experience!

Well, just caved in and used some of my Easter money to buy Gallifrey Time War.
I never was particularly interested in Gallifrey, Romana or the intrigue and the politics, so this will be my first exposure to the range.
I just felt like a bit of going over to the dark side, threat and treason today and the characters/ stories of the War Master and Brax sound promising.
Not sure if this will entice me to buy further into the range and after some of the mixed reviews of part two...
I will find out I guess.

Having now listened to the set I can report that I was very pleased with my purchase and I will certainly pre-order volume two if/when it is released. Jake Dudman is truly a marvel. I knew that his Eleventh Doctor was good, but I didn’t realise how many other voices he could act with. Each story felt like it had more actors playing the parts than just the two on the cast list! Very impressed with the production. |

Very impressed with the production. I keep dithering whether to get this or not... All I can tell you is I enjoyed it. The Matt Smith era is my favourite era of nuWho and I accepted Jake as the Eleventh Doctor. Also I bought it in this offer which made it value for money for me...not sure at it’s current price I would recommend it quite so much, simply because you can get a lot more Big Finish for that money... However it sounds like there will be more Doctor Chronicles to be announced, with hopefully volume 2 for the Eleventh Doctor included, and thereby there will be an excuse for Big Finish to put volume one on offer again soon. |

Well, then this might not be your thing.
However-
Do you like the 11th Doctor?
Then it is a no-brainer. This really is VERY good, not only because of the voice-acting but also looking at the stories and production quality. As I said, I went in having zero expectations and while not really being sold on the re-cast thing. Boy, was I in for a pleasant surprise!
Definitely get it on the next sale.
