The twelve days of Big Finishmas has begun, but this year they appear to have tied it up to signing up to the newsletter.
The first offer is 20% off the Originals range (except Transference) - runs until 7th January.
Also a free download is available for a very limited period - The Veiled Leopard.

I do like the 12 days of Big Finishmas, now one of the best things about Christmas!

A fun bit of nostalgia to revisit The Veiled Leopard, although Peri and Erimem discussing their breasts and Ace's racist accent for a quick Confucius reference are odd moments that thankfully wouldn't fly these days.

If anyone is at all interested, here is the current and historical Big Finishmas sales offers.

It's nuts to say that The Veiled Leopard is free for "a limited time". It's been free on Soundcloud literally for years and years. And still is.

"Free for a limited time" here would appear to mean "for this set period, you can add it to your Big Finish account for free and download it in the app." I don't know about anyone else, but I find Soundcloud clunky, cumbersome, and not a terribly good platform. It loads weirdly on mobile, not working quite right with mobile browser, and on my laptop I find it's pretty hit-or-miss whether the applet even works at all. For those reasons I appreciate it being made available through the Big Finish platform, even though you're quite right to point out that it's already out there for free.

I think this is 4th time in 3 years that I have signed up for the newsletter.

I downloaded the free Big Finish episodes on Soundcloud and played them on my own device. Worked great. There was no Big Finish app at the time.

Looking through my account, I see that for subscribers, this, along with some of the other DWM releases were included as extras with 183 - The Brood of Erys.
So there's a good chance many have this and have forgotten about it.

I love me some Big Finishmas.
I won't partake of the Originals, but the chance to have Veiled Leopard added to my account so the app will have all my ducks in a row is very much appreciated!

All six Carnacki stories for £2.99! I really liked the free story they released but never got round to picking this one up. Lovely.

Last year, the whole Big Finishmas the only two items on sale I didn't have were ones I wasn't interested in, hah!

Okay, gonna pass on that one. I've bought a whole bunch of Sherlock Holmes but have only listened to one. I've got enough of a backlog on that range without adding more!

It is a brilliant start to the trilogy of boxsets.

Definitely my favourite of the Sherlock Holmes boxsets. 4 fantastic tales throughout Sherlock Holmes' life. Highly recommended (though it would help if The Perfidious Mariner was listened to before starting the set, though it ain't a necessity).
