"Is 'Peake Season' gonna be available separately like 'The Dreams of Avarice' and 'Shellshock'? Cause if not that's kinda a sucky thing to do, making people download a 5-hour boxset if they just want to listen to one of the stories..." - somebody who I guess has never bought a normal box set at Big Finish before? I mean... this is how this works... literally just the 4th Doctor range, and (formerly) the 10th doctor range have ever offered individual stories outside of box set form before... this confuses me... like... it's the normal state of BF box sets... this is stupid, right? I've not lost it, right? I believe this is one of the sets that was bumped up from two stories to three when the new boxset line ups were announced. Probably just an oversight on Big Finish's part. No, they've stated specifically that it's included in the box set itself and not as an individual release. The thing that confuses me is why this is a problem for this person... Like, I guess it's a little annoying that the fourth doctor range has something you have to buy the box set for, but like... this is how most box sets work anyway, so while it's a little annoying there's hardly anything "sucky" about big finish doing this, right?

I always love the 4DAs, but after the last box set being so very, very good I am equal measures excited and apprehensive about this set. Can they continue the run of exceptional stories. I really hope so.

How great to hear Tom give the new BF catch-phrase.. No it's awful jingle I've had some newer releases on lately and....eugh, yes. Every time I hear the new ident, the word "insipid" comes to the front of and dominates my brain. It's so bad.

I swear, without the music it wouldn't be bad. It wouldn't be "good" but it wouldn't be bad at least... but that music... I hate it...

Considering how each story is said to have a character who fits the companion role I wonder how they chose Margaret to be the one who ends up in a more permanent role?

Apparently David R went up to Nick B and said "Your gonna say Alicia's Character' and Nick B said "Your gonna say Nerys's. Well they're going to be back paired with Leela Margret's probable the better fit story wise". Regards mark687

Its like the kind of short few notes you would have for an Air Freshener. Not quite the tone setter for a company who make their bread and butter on action adventure sci-fi. A quick synth-pop blast would be more on brand and contemporary.

It’s a shame it couldn’t have been kept a secret. I know that after just two stories I would have fun trying to decide who I would like to be Tom’s future companion. It was a great idea of Big Finish to set a series up with the concept of someone from these stories will be a future companion…just (as I have already said) a shame they didn’t allow their audience play along.

Loving those covers, but it's Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor so I'm always going to be biased.
So cool were getting a bonus story with volume 2 as well.
