I know very little about what Big Finish has planned out for next few years but even I can see three things there that are definitely wrong. I'd treat the rest with scepticism.

None of it sounds stupidly outlandish
These 'leaks' never are. I'm always impressed how dull these fans manage to make their rumours!
(Mind you, Jacobi roping in some of his mates... I can't work out whether that's unlikely or very likely. Let's not forget that he and McKellen did an ITV sitcom not too long ago, I don't think actors of this calibre are out of BF's reach)

Yeah, let’s just say those are the sort of rumours I’d expect to hear from a “Reddit leak”

The “leak” is very interesting reading. Obviously a chunk of it we know about from various elements, not to mention the long lead time Big Finish have on some ranges. I don’t think much of what is new in the post is unrealistic and what could be viewed as such isn’t completely left field. It won’t be long before we know the validity of it, as 2023 isn’t far away and much of it will be available to pre-order and the information out there in the next few months, I would’ve thought. EDIT: Link for those interested - https://www.reddit.com/r/gallifrey/comments/w3bygr/leaked_big_finish_2023_release_schedule/ So Who plied Who with what to get that little lot! Most of it actually seems plausible Damm New Amsterdam for doing so well! Regards mark687 Funnily enough, Freema’s just announced she won’t be returning for the final season! Presumably other work is lined up, but hopefully there may be a few days where The Year of Martha Jones 2 can be finished off.

I can't see Ian McKellen being that difficult to persuade. He's appeared in many diverse productions including TV sit coms, Have I Got News For You and Coronation Street, so I imagine he's not that stuffy over what he chooses to work on. And he's close friends with both Derek Jacobi and Sylvester McCoy so if he is going to do a War Master audio then maybe he might also appear in a Seventh Doctor one as well. Maybe The Last Day will also feature him as the final 'God' figure that Seven has to overcome before he can finally regenerate?

The War Master Vol 9 and 10 sound awesome having Ian and Patrick on board would make the big finish website crash due to preorders on the downside though i am saddened that the range will end but perhaps its best to end things on a high note then keep it going like Zombie Simpsons. just saddened we wont hear a Michael Jayston Doctor or Johnathan Carley War Doctor vs The War Master release but i guess they could have Jacobi guest starring in the War Doctor Begins Range
River meeting Sarah Jane Smith and The Ninth Doctor in Series 11 and 12 sounds cool especially if The box-set connects To 9's Series 3.
Christopher Eccleston returning for a third series yep i am sold on that especially if its claimed to be like Dalek Universe- lets hope its not a bait and switch like DU
More 8th Doctor and Lucie perhaps the one 8th Doctor boxset i am looking forward to

Glad to see a reboot of The Sarah Jane Smith Series kinda adds up to what Nick said in the podcast that there was a Recasted companion series in the works. Nice to have Jon Culshaw and Christopher Naylor back as The Brig and Harry. quite excited for that
The Sixth Doctor Adventures 2023 releases oh man seriously BF we could be having Six, Peri and Frobisher Stories and yet we are having more Mel and Hebe Stories terrific
The Lone Centurion Vol 3...had no idea it would be doing well to get a third series but lets hope the humor is balanced and that its a good release
An Audio book by Colin Baker with 6 and Evelyn thats brilliant
The Third Doctor october release being a Halloween Anthology sounds so good take my money
Classic Doctors New Monsters Vol 4 is interesting as they kinda subvert what i was expecting hmmmm i guess Gus would have to be recast due to John Sessions Death, Slitheen and The First Doctor seem like a bonkers pairing but equally hilarious, Reapers and 2nd Doctor might be interesting and The Whisper men and The fifth doctor sounds pretty cool

Are you being sarcastic? This isn't real. It's been confirmed by multiple BF creatives it isn't real. If you look at it there's details that just don't make sense.

Glad that Year of Martha Jones Vol 2 is in development as well as 10th Doctor and Martha (one of my most wanted releases)
Im Happy that The BBC are allowing more unbounds to be devloped shame that its not New Doctors but more Doctor of War Classic Who Time War stuff but i think the idea of Unbound Stories for Companions is actually a really smart idea Big Finish have.
Three 4th Doctor and Sarah Boxsets for 2025 sounds great hopefully they will still be making CDs for them
Paternoster Gang honestly just have them in space or with the next doctor
New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield Vol 8 i kinda hope that they would do something new then just her and David Warner (dont get me wrong i love the pair but perhaps they should mix things up) or have Warner his own boxset with her guest starring

I’ve given it a glance and other than things already announced it’s entirely untrue. There’s even one title that’s been announced that they manage to get wrong.

On the Who - Corner to Corner podcast, James Moran mentioned that he’s written another Torchwood story, has written a story (heavily implied) to be for the Fourth Doctor, and another story for another Doctor that isn’t 10 or 4.

I just listened and I didn't hear anything about Torchwood, but that he has one partially recorded and two others in different stages of scripting, all three for Doctor Who, though all different Doctors, including one definitely implied to be Baker. The question becomes which Doctors are they? Personally I think it would be quite cool if Moran write for Jo Martin, Jonathan Carley, Eccelston or Pertwee, all Doctors that would fit well with his style, but honestly I'm just happy he's doing more as I am a big fan of his audio for Torchwood, Serenity.

Is Moran the only DW writer who's done both TV and BF to do the new series first, *then* BF?

Forgot to mention Nick Briggs in the 24th of July Podcast has mentioned that directed Eleventh Doctor “stuff” most likely chronicles with working on approval stage of post production Really loved the second Eleven Chronicles set, was one of my favourite releases of last year and a real surprise. Just four bloody good stories, no crossovers or pairings and a cracking variety of writers. Really excited for them to put him with an original companion, if that’s still the intention; I think that somehow helps sell the lead being an impersonation by crafting a new era.
