Of the ones I've heard the three i would pick are: Storm Warning - Its 8's first BF story, so it has to be included Chimes of Midnight - Its just a classic story all round Company of Friends - Its a great snapshot of different 8 eras If I can add Neverland and Other Lives to that list, I'd call it good for hitting the highest points of the pre-Mary Shelley trilogy stories and not bother getting into just how indispensable I'm also finding the 8DAs series 3 & 4, Dark Eyes, and Doom Coalition to be. I might count Dark Eyes as one story but the next person may want to count it as 16 of them. :-)

In regards to 8, I'm actually still only halfway through the DU Arc lol. For him I'm actually trying to work in order. Bar the ary Shelley trilogy of course, but i can get round that by saying its set before Charley lol

With Charley~ Chimes of Midnight...Going to preach to the choir here but it is one of the absolute best Big Finish stories. It's not that I don't love other Charley stories this is just such a stand out. With Lucie~ Harder for me to pick just one I loved the 2 part Human Resources from S1 but also Relative Dimensions is another favorite from S4 with some lovely special guests (I guess I just enjoy 8 & Christmas) . And of course Lucie Miller & To the Death are a must but they definitely aren't introductory audios. With With Molly ~ I need to re-listen to Dark Eyes because I can't remember individual stories all that well. The 1st Two box sets were my favorite especially Dark Eyes 1. With Liv & Helen ~ The Red Lady & the latest Absent Friends are both brilliant. Also the Eleven is a great introduction to a new villain.
Absent is Mary because I still need to listen to those stories...soon I hope.

Jeeps. For general consumption as an intro to eighth doc? Seasons of Fear The Red Lady Company of Friends Personal Faves Invaders from Mars Beast of Orlok Grand Theft Cosmos Silver Turk And Neverland is utterly brilliant as long as you know the continuity Actually just seeing what I should get next XD

Yikes! Ask us something easy why don't you . . .
The Chimes of Midnight
The Natural History of Fear
The Silver Turk
That was upsettingly difficult. Pairing it down to 3 leaves out so much, especially personal favorites like Sword of Orion, Neverland, and Terror Firma. And I didn't even leave the monthly range!

The Natural History of Fear is my next one I need in the in regards to Charley (and C'rizz, so that'll probably be it. Just finished listening to The Silver Turk yesterday, good stuff. Chimes of Midnight is so damn expensive and before u ask, when it comes to 8, I want physical copies.

Also I have some of the 8th Doctor's stuff from the first 50 monthly releases, but didn't get them all before they discontinued... unfortunately I found out about Big Finish when they already were midway.
