'City at the Edge of the World' (Colin/Bayban's episode) is one of my top top favourites, partly for Bayban (top of the Federation's Most Wanted list - after Blake...*), partly for Vila (my favourite character in the crew) and partly because it's a terrific story. If you know anyone who's into B7, borrow a DVD and watch that one episode, it's fairly self-contained and Colin as the villain is well worth seeing!
* B7 Fans, all together now, deep breath and... 'AFTER BLAKE?!' I bet it must be worth seeing. It is Colin! Sadly I am a German living in rural Germany and at a guess there is nobody in a 500 km radius who might even have heard of the series. So yeah, will dive into this as a complete virgin. Blake's 7 (or Avon's 7 as I prefer to think of it) is just, at it's peak, some of the best British sci-fi ever. Colin comes in and gives maybe the hammiest, most fun guest performance of the whole 4 series - even more than Brian Blessed. The commentary for Timelash is terrific as Colin and Paul Darrow spend the time annoying each other for ruining the other's show. Hilarious stuff.

Just bought 3 bundles: Iris Wildthyme and Friends Books 1-5 Doctor Who - The Ninth Doctor Adventures Volume 01-04 Avalon 1-2 (Download) - US $33.00 And that's my Big Finish spending for the month. Unless by chance there's a really good sale for something I don't own.

I first thought I might start on Dalek Universe, but all the positive reviews made me buy the new Third Doctor adventures. I think I am going to check in with 3, UNIT and Liz now while painting on my balcony.

Payday. Here's the routine. Pop over to the Big Finish website to do some topping up.
Doctor Who: The War Doctor Begins - Forged in Fire. I've given up saying how I don't really like recasts, because Big Finish change my mind on a regular basis.
Avalon Volume 02. Colin Baker returns as Bayban the Butcher. That is all.
Now I wait in anticipation of June Releases Anticipation Thread.

Put the June pre-orders in today: The War Doctor Begins: Series 1-4 (separately though, as the bundle was more expensive) Jago & Lifefoot: Series 14The Robots: Volume 4I was considering getting The Box of Delights, but ultimately decided against it. I don't really know anything about it, and with July's third-quarter pre-order due in a month, there's only so much money I can reasonably throw at Big Finish

My work pay came in this morning as per normal every fortnight. I over paid my credit card so it's in credit a few hundred dollars.. Bought 8DA with Lucie Miller S02 on digital. 1 of my 1st mass orders over 12 years ago was all 4 seasons from Book Depository, back then they were about 40% off so I went crazy, about 40 cds in 1 hit.
Now with technology I will slowly go through and re-buy on digital when they pop up on $ale

I went in on The Box of Delights, the War Master bundle and the First Action Bureau. So kind of a heavy purchase day for me.
