A Multi-Doc featuring 9, a Final Farewell and a Family Reunion hopefully combine for answers as Once and Future heads towards its narrative conclusion.
Are the times a changing for Liz Shaw and UNIT?
At last its the Wedding of the Whoiverse complete with Un and Not exactly as expected Guests, but is Strax Best Sontaran or Sontaran of Honour?
The fallout from Sanctuary Base begins but can Ida Scott reconcile with her past and find future direction?
Mixing Espionage with the Occult seldom stays buried as the reluctantly reformed Department 7 are about to discover
Confirmed Release Dates (so far)
Unannounced 8DA Series 1 Collection DL Only Re-Release (Tuesday 3rd October)

I've got more ordered in October than I have for a long while. Both the Once and Futures, 3DA's Intelligence for War (I'm looking forward to this the most, I think), Torchwood: Odyssey and - essential for Halloween month - The Omega Factor: The House That Wasn't Haunted.

Well this is the first time in ages I can recall finding a few exciting releases. Paternoster Gang will hopefully be fun. The Omega Factor a perfect Halloween listen. Intelligence for War is the one I am most excited for. I think in the main the 3rd Doctor range has balanced well being true to the era while making them more contemporary in terms of characters & Daisy Ashford is just brilliant as Liz Shaw.

I agree that this is a very exciting month, especially since I’m getting four different releases, which I don’t think has happened this year yet. I’m most looking forward to Intelligence for War because Three’s era is my comfort era, and the 3DAs balances that nostalgia with contemporary storytelling wonderfully. The other three releases are no slouch either, with a welcome return to Paternoster Row, Future Torchwood and Omega Factor!

October is a quiet one for me, I've given up on Once & Future, but I may give 3DAs a try, Eddie Robson usually delivers great stuff.
November and December looks much more interesting to me. The War Master, 8DAs, 11DCs and 7s Last Day are releases I've had my eye on for some time.

I'm not sure I'd have bothered with them after the first couple of releases if I hadn't got them all in a bundle. Glad to see that Intelligence for War seems to have ignited so many people's interest. |

Intelligence for War is my most anticipated, really looking forward to that. Odyssey is a close second; excited for more future Torchwood. Paternoster Gang is always fun and I’m intrigued by the involvement of the Doctor. Once & Future wise, I’m not particularly eager for Time Lord Immemorial, but The Union has a more appealing set of characters; I’m hoping they use the incarnation shunting to great effect.
It’s a busy ‘un!

Like others may enthusiasm for Once and Future has waned, but bundle has me committed. Who knows maybe the finale will prove to have some substance.
Future Torchwood sounds really promising.

Glad to see that Intelligence for War seems to have ignited so many people's interest. I bought the first three Once and Future releases, I decided against the bundle because I had a feeling one or two would review badly. Episodes 1, 2 and 3 were okay but I doubt I'll listen to them again. Though I've given up, I will be interested to know if the final episode sticks the landing. |

The announcement of a fourth series of Star Cops : Blood Moon and the temporary early bird discount offer though unexpected (but definitely welcomed) has seen my carefully budgeted plans for October thrown right out the window. So I'll step into Once and Future with Timelord Immemorial in November now (possibly alongside The Union - will wait to see what the reaction is before committing), The Omega Factor : The House That Wasn't Haunted will be in December (it'll be the perfect starter before the annual Christmas dive into the M.R.James collection over on Audible) and Torchwood : Odyssey will be at a much later date (though I'll be watching reaction to the 'future Torchwood' trilogy with a great deal of interest. Especially if that interest leads somewhere...)
Which leaves two on my 'having it no matter what' shopping list this month. The Paternoster Gang : Trespassers 1 - comfortably fills the void in 'stories set in the Victorian era' left by Jago and Litefoot plus the chemistry between the three main actors is an added bonus, and The Third Doctor Adventures : Intelligence for War - which frankly was a no brainer from the minute it was announced. A season 7 story set in my neck of the woods and with the focus on Daisy's interpretation of her mother's role? Like I'd let that one roll by...

Intelligence for War and The Omega Factor - glad to see it isn't just me looking forward to the latter!

I am like others here- a bit disappointed by Once and Future but committed due to the bundle. However, this month does have one of my most anticipated releases- the 9th Doctor and the Warner Doctor meet (collide?). Looking forward to that.
The 3rd Doctor adventures are worth it most of the time, so I hope for a nice Nazi runaround. I just hope there won‘t be any bad fake atrocious German accents. My eardrums are already damaged from my diving adventures. I fear they will burst if confronted with male cattle poo like that. For real.
And then I am of course looking forward to the Paternosters. They are fun.

I'm really looking forward to The Omega Factor. One my favorite non-Who ranges, I was very disappointed when it ended.

You think this new release would be worth it for someone who is unfamiliar with the range? It sounds interesting, but I am not prepared to buy into the range. So I am wondering if this might be stand-alone.....
EDIT- checked on the BF site. Apparently this IS a stand-alone story. This sells it, I am getting this. I love a good haunted house story.
EDIT2: So this month will be the busiest BF month for me in ages.

I’m definitely most intrigued by Intelligence for War this month. It’s always good to get more content with Dr Liz Shaw in my opinion and the Third Doctor Adventures are always good value for money.

It was a fantastic range, like all the other horror based ranges (which seem to all disappear unfortunately) - it was basically "X Files" before X Files, but based in UK.
