individual 8 da's are a similar price but the 8 da bundles work out much cheaper than the 4da ones

A couple of people I know think it is flawed as a story or not representative of Leela at the time. It's a half remembered discussion with another reviewer over some beer a couple of years ago! The Wrath of the Iceni is my least favourite John Dorney Fourth Doctor Adventure; its medieval based storyline didn't really resonate with me. It's still a high quality adventure though! I'm also not the biggest fan of Phantoms of the Deep; audios that feature inanimate non speaking adversaries generally don't captivate me. My FDA series 1 & 2 natural recommendations are: - Trail of the White Worm (1.5)
- The Oseidon Adventure (1.6)
I never tire of listening to Beevers! - The Auntie Matter (2.1)
- The Justice of Jalxar (2.4)

Took advantage of this and I can't wait to hear more of Mary Tamm, may she rest in peace.

Tom costs more than Paul because Tom is the longest reigning TV Doctor, and Paul is the shortest reigning TV Doctor. Of course. ;-) Actually, offhand the 4DAs seem similar in price and length to the individual 8DAs? I'd get the 4DA series 1 & 2 specials if nothing else (if I didn't already have them). Those really are incredible deals. I cant leave this alone, if I could, I would.
It depends on how you measure time reigning on tv, now if you would have said Tom had more episodes than any other doctor, and Paul had the fewest, I would agree, but Tom was the doctor for 7 years, and Paul the doctor for 9 years, at least in real world time, and that pretty much includes tv time.
Still that doesn't qualify either of them for the title. And no matter how you look at tv time, there is an undisputed winner in that category.
And that is Sylvester McCoy. He was the doctor for a good 10 years, on tv, and in real life. From 1987, until 1996. He has a lot fewer episodes than Tom, but if you include in the Virgin NA's, he has a much greater number of stories, at least up to this point.
Anyway, just trying to start an intellectual argument, Thank goodness for spell check or I couldn't spell intellectual.

You need to look at time between regenerations. Paul is clearly the winner!

For the first time ever I have all the titles on sale. My wallet is very grateful.

From 1987, until 1996. which of course shows how badly wrong one quiz show was (The Million Pound Drop) when they claimed that David Tennant had been the Doctor longer than Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann. Back on topic, it was Tom Baker's face smiling down at me from the shelves at Waterstones that led to me trying out Big Finish (they [fortunately] didn't have Destination: Nerva so my first try was the Renaissance Man) and I am up to date on Tom's adventures

I did read one review in which the reviewer mad a big deal that the impossibility of the eye-spy game (due to language issues) - though I feel in the section of the game presented, the game is so bad (and not featuring a single wrong guess) that it avoids the problems. And Mark Campbell's book gave it a very low score. Overall, I liked it
