This is the first monthly range release with a female writer since "Breaking Bubbles and Other Stories", nearly three years ago.

I'm shocked that Una McCormack hasn't written a full Main Range yet.

This one just shot to my most excited for list. I am not even finished with the Hex audios I do have but knowing there was no more after I was done made me a bit sad. This was a lovely surprise. Also the cover is absolutely gorgeous

Good to see BF is inserting stories into their own chronology again, with both this and Flip's two-and-two release.
I mean Companion Chronicles and Short Trips have been doing it for a while -and obviously The Last Adventure - but these are the first MRs set during an established (finished) BF companion's time in the TARDIS since Evelyn. And only one other than Evelyn, come to think of it.

How I managed to read this tantalising thread without clicking any of the SPOILERs, I will never know! But thanks to the various posters' obvious excitement, I now know to avoid looking at, reading about or even thinking too hard about this release before June... Ignorance is good when it comes to enjoying new releases, but so hard to sustain in the face of the temptation of online knowledge. It's like being an audiobook monk with strict vows to uphold; virtuous and hopefully rewarding in the future but very, very difficult to do! (The last time I carefully stayed in total ignorance because of excited rumours of a 'secret' character, it WAS The Monk! Great payoff, my ignorance was duly rewarded!)

I can say without risk of hyperbole that this will be the greatest Doctor Who story ever told in any medium. It will make the Daleks look like the Zarbi. Adric, Kamelion, Thomas Brewster and Whizz Kid team up and form a Boy Band together.

It was the Gods of Ragnarok, in the Conservatory with the Tissue Compression Eliminator!
(I misspelled Ragnarok as "Ragnorak" and my spellchecker wanted to change it to "Anorak" which seems rather apt.)

Leaving aside the fact that I am a big fan of 'The Web Planet' in all its daring strangeness, great posts! And I still didn't click a single Spoiler. This voluntary ignorance business gets easier the longer you go on! Assuming that your recent 'Spoiler' posts in fact contained jokes (since there's a limit to how much detail BF would have revealed this early), I will laugh at them in June when I come back to this thread... three months, that's how long it can take me to get the joke...

Just saw the cover today, can't believe I missed these. The series of double stories look great. SP/WA has one of my favourite TARDIS teams.
