Shame because I haven't got many Seventh Doctor audios and thought it might have been a decent one to get. Maybe I'm thinking of a different Big Finish audio that's considered a classic? I enjoyed Thin Ice, but I like Seventh Doctor and Ace stories, generally. I like the Doctor and companion pairing, but find the stories in the period where they were Doctor and companion flawed. Lots of potential, but as the show was struggling it's often wasted.

Well, I'm glad I checked this forum - I completely ignored the news article as I have all the lost stories, not realising PHP was also on sale.

Best of an average/bad bunch maybe but I really don't recall it ever being called a classic. It'll be someone's fave - every story has fans - but the consensus is not great on any of the S27 audios. Shame because I haven't got many Seventh Doctor audios and thought it might have been a decent one to get. Maybe I'm thinking of a different Big Finish audio that's considered a classic? You're probably thinking of Frozen Time, a different Seventh Doctor/Ice Warrior story Number #98 in the Main Range.

I have all the Lost Stories through the Humble Bundle sale from last year (I think). But I'm actually thinking about getting a few of my favorites at this price so I can listen to them on the app.
And I agree with those that have recommended Farewell, Great Macedon. One of the best stories ever done by BF.

I can only afford to get one out of PHP and the fourth Doctor box set, which one do you all recommend? 4th Doc Lost Stories Foe from the Future is just about perfect.

What do people think of Animal? Do you need to have listened to Thin Ice and Crime Of The Century first?

I suspect that a lot of what was originally going into Animal, ended up in Warhead and Warlock instead.

Thin Ice would be the best of those, but they are average enough stories. Still, on sale they might be worth picking up if you're a Seventh Doctor fan. It's a nice cheap way of trying them out.
