Just to say, whatever Alex is talking about, it ain't a series! (Before anyone at Big Finish thinks I'm running away with budgets!) Good clarification! The headline that Digital Spy went with is a touch misleading. Regardless--can't wait to see what it is! |

To comment...mixed feelings on this. I like to collect physical releases of anything featuring the Doctor. So I've been collecting 4DAs, Monthlies, box sets, etc.
But this has always been Baker/Davison/Baker/McCoy/McGann. And I've made no secret of being opposed to any recasting, so the 3DAs are a total non-starter for me. But now Sixie is in one? =\

IT Could be separate productions being recorded but the Tweet reads like its all one thing.

But wouldn't it be interesting...

Although a 3rd & 6th Doctor pairing would be pretty interesting.

The new Vortex says BF have been asking not to use Tom Baker's Curator.

The new Vortex says BF have been asking not to use Tom Baker's Curator. Actually it's that "the BBC have specifically told us not to use Tom’s character from the 50th anniversary" not just that its "not covered by the current licence".

Pardon my typo, it should be "asked" not "asking". |

I don't mind that ask, actually. Having an elderly Tom Baker return as the very last life of the Doctor makes a sweet little coda that I'm not sure should be revisited.

That makes sense to me. The license ends at The Time of the Doctor. And while Tom's character appears in the 50th Anniversary, he's really from well after Time of the Doctor.

There are still plenty of toys to play with (even if UNIT aren't facing any monsters in the third box set), so the inability to use the Curator isn't that big a deal. Just look at what we've gotten in the last twelve months.

Bits and pieces from the podcast titled "June #02," featuring Katy Manning as the interview...
Regarding the tweet a week or two ago about other properties, Nick Briggs confirmed that a different company already holds the rights to Discworld, so we can probably count that out.
In Dark Shadows news: "Dark Shadows: Haunting Memories" is a forthcoming set of 4 short stories as "read by the original cast." It includes a story written Lara Parker for the first time.
It also sounds like (and I could have this wrong, I was a bit confused by what Nick Briggs was saying) it includes the story "The Missing Reel" by Ian Farrington, which was meant to be in the June release but was delayed
The Avengers: There is a new trailer for Lost Episodes Vol 6 that will be released sometime soon.
Doctor Who: Despite current wording on the site, December 2017 will not be the end of the Short Trips, just the end of the currently commissioned run. Briggs confirmed that, though not yet announced on the site, they have just commissioned a new set of STs to begin after that Dec 2017 title.
From the Katy Manning interview...
She and Nick feel like Treloar has "studied" Pertwee more since their last time recording together
Katy seems cautious about whether they can find someone to do Delgado's Master that's not just an impersonator, but someone who can really get into the shoes of Delgado. She seems content that maybe they can find someone perfect, but if not "sometimes memories ARE the best way to go."
Finally, Terry Molloy will be the interview guest in the next podcast.

Both are Quentin stories. And just for clarity in case anyone doesn't know, Lara Parker has written some very successful Dark Shadows novels in the past, this story is her first Dark Shadows writing for Big Finish. |
