David Tennant will do a second box set in no time. He's a Whovian. There's absolutely no way he won't. Same with Peter Capaldi. Being a Whovian doesn't equal having the availability to do it. They're both busy actors with active careers, they can't really commit to regular audios. I doubt that would stop a Whovian. Capaldi or Tennant may or may not want to do more audios eventually and love the role, but their agents will have very different ideas. In the case of Tom Baker...no disrespect to the man, but he hadn't really done much of note outside Who for decades, it was by far his most iconic role and as noted he was very reluctant to return for years, his age was probably also a factor in returning as it's a relatively easy solid income for less time and faffing around than a TV or Movie job. As for the other Doctors...as noted Hurt was ill and wanted some easy work he could do, Sylvester and Peter D had hit and miss scripts and both toyed with doing a 4th series so perhaps they felt they had unfinished business, Paul had only done one story so probably felt he had lots left to prove and explore with the character and Colin got fired before he got a chance to do everything he wanted with the character. Tennant, Capaldi and Smith all left of their own accord, with larger worldwide audiences and presumably happy with the 3 series they have done in the role they may simply feel they've done everything they wanted to do with the role, moaning about how we are entitled to more stories isn't going to be a positive way to help change their minds. Stuff their agents. They probably don't understand what Big Finish is or why they'd want to do it.

Do we? I'm not convinced it's going to happen -- at least, not anytime soon. As Aztec pointed out on the first page, Tennant had to be coaxed back to do the box set as a favor to Briggs, and then only if Catherine Tate participated. Honestly, I don't think any of the other Nu-Who Doctors will work with Big Finish with the possible exception of Matt Smith, who has said "yes" on more than one occasion. Eccleston has declined and Capaldi is apparently telling people at conventions he won't do it (wow -- what a fan!). We're lucky we even got John Hurt, who admitted to Briggs that he only accepted the BF gig because he had cancer and needed acting work where he could be seated and not have to move around. And, yes, I know everyone always says that Tom Baker declined for years and then changed his mind, but he had to be talked into it by Louise Jameson. David Tennant will do a second box set in no time. He's a Whovian. There's absolutely no way he won't. Same with Peter Capaldi. How long is "no time"? You've been asserting this despite all evidence to the contrary for about a year now.

Frankly I'm surprised Big Finish haven't announced a volume 2 yet and I wish they'd hurry up.

I think it's *far* too easy to overstate any fan credentials, particularly where the main cast are concerned.

Broadchurch will have been filming for most of the past year, he'll probably have his usual RSC commitments and any other TV work as well. He's busy, probably making it difficult to find a slot to do some recording, and if they want a TV companion with him that adds another dimension, with all of them having active careers. Being a fan of something and wanting to do something doesn't always translate into being able to do it.

Any of us on here if we were in David Tennant's situation would.

So why hasn't there yet been a volume two, or an announcement of one? I can't believe I'm getting involved in this.

Hey everyone, At some point, it will happen. What stories do we think Big Finish will tell? I hope you're right. But id lay down money, you're wrong. Still, doesn't hurt to dream
