I just want to say I'm so happy with everything Doctor Who related at the moment, first Tennant's triumphant return, then the amazing promise of Ncuti as the 15th Doctor and finally so many lovely Big Finish stories I've enjoyed or I'm really looking forward to,
In the Bleak Midwinter and Rogue Encounters were fantastic!
And I have 11DC's vol 5 and 6 that look awesome. I'm curious about 7s Last Day and The War Doctor encountering the 8th Doctor.
Then we have a 6 part epic 1st Doctor adventure styled like The Chase.
I can't wait to find out what joy 2024 has to bring for everything Whoniverse!
Is anyone else as excited? Even if it's just for a couple of potential treats we have coming our way over the next few months?

Love the positivity!
I'm really looking forward to the second Rani set, the first one was great and really had that nostalgic yet moving forward feel to it. Especially happy to see Luke returning and I hope this won't be it for the range.
I said in another thread but really glad to see the Sontarans vs. Rutans range. A regular monthly range with a different arc is what Big Finish need. It worked for Dalek Universe, it worked for Among Us... OK not as successful with Once and Future but I think that was because the story wasn't focused enough.
The 11DC has been brilliant and beautiful so far and the details we now have for that final set have got me excited.
More Harry and Naomi will definitely be a pre order for me. The last couple of 7DA sets were brilliant and I want to see how their story began.
The multiple 8th Doctor sets will be a must as well, haven't regretted an 8 purchase since I started with Big Finish.
Finally, on a Big Finish note, I'm hoping that we finally get Fugitive/Spy Master news soon! I reckon the Fugitive sets are my most anticipated releases purely down to Jo Martin. If they bring in Karvanista too... Well all the better!
For Who generally, I mean who isn't excited about The Giggle and then meeting the Fifteenth Doctor! Plus, please give us more new who Targets! My most wanted stories being Boom Town, School Reunion (for Sarah Jane's perspectie) and Legend of the Sea Devil's (I think there's a good story there which is let down by the execution)

Sometimes it's good to take a step back and realise how well off we are now as Doctor Who fans. Some have been saying the new 14th Doctor stories aren't quite the 'specials' they're cracked up to be. It's perhaps worth remembering that 20 years ago, *any* new television Doctor Who stories would have been special. 25 years ago,any new audio Doctor Who would have been something special.
There's spectacular new TV Who with a new Doctor for those that want it, with promised spins-off.
For me, I love the audio stuff overall. It's easy to complain about a few delays and perceived failings in Big Finish's publicity department - but, really, I don't know what I'd do without 'em.

I agree, we're very lucky and there's much to enjoy. I adore the audio stuff, there is such variety with all the Doctors and Spin-offs. If I had more funds I'd purchase almost all the releases from the Doctor Who ranges. Some releases might not be to everyone's taste but if I find one set below par, more often than not the following month will bring something brilliant. |
