Well, yeah out of all the planets/cultures Doctor Who has visited over his fifty plus years history Peladon always was the one most ripe for further exploration and spin off material.
Glad to see Big Finish finally got around to it.

Surprised to see both Torchwood series,the majority of Counter Measures, Space 1999: Breakaway and, the first 4 UNIT boxsets, hopefully they'll put on a sale eventually.

I just need the God Among Us and Mother Earth sets. Question is do I get either or both now to eliminate the risk of missing out, or wait on a sale. Most likely the day I order at full bundle price will be the day before a sale. If I’d just been quicker that time recently when a discount code was mistakenly working on everything, I could already have these and a few others and a lot of guilt.

Always really annoying when stuff like this happens. I'd been planning to get Aliens Among Us and God Among Us direct from BF, when my budget would allow for the CD bundles, but will now probably end up getting them from other, cheaper retailers so I can make sure I get the CDs. I'm sure I'll cave and get the downloads separately at some point, though.

The problem used to be there was never a supermarket or a HMV near me. Now it seems to be that the LPs don't even get delivered to Big FInish. What's changed? Is it Brexit?

On a related note, is this the worst time Big Finish has ever had for marketing and PR? There was the TIime Lord Victorious shambles, then Barrowman, then the end of the main rangee, now LPs stuck in the EU, plus Covid meaning audios aren't getting recorded and keep being put back in the calender.

Yes for a year that started with the intent "We've got the 9th Doc back. We will now also be more co-ordinate on PR". to COVID disruption, losing a Contributor to keep the Business, the unjustly leveled bad PR for that, plus Brexit having the worse case impact on supply and delivery. Brave Heart to them all I say. Regards mark687

And all of these things are out of there control, plus must be costing them money every time. I wouldn't want to be in their shoes.

I've been clamouring for a meeting of the two Travises for as long as I can remember. I don't quite know how BF will get them together, but it's going to be fun finding out. I have to hand it to them - Big Finish have made a range that could have been scuppered by the passing of much-missed cast members into compelling listening.

In a later post you describe these issues as bin-fires. Just to point out that the ending of the main range was not a bin-fire,but a deliberate change of direction by BF. "Creative Director Nicholas Briggs said: “This is a real opening up of our various Doctors’ adventures – they all now have their own individual series, just as it should be! And for those listeners used to purchasing a yearly subscription of our old Monthly Adventures, this new bundle of box sets will give you the opportunity to order the whole year’s stories in one go, while you can also order by specific Doctor. There are some great new adventures on the way too – I’m particularly excited by what we’ll be doing with new First, Second and Third Doctor Adventures, aiming to make take them into brand new territory, while also giving them a fully era-authentic fee" Just saying

The Only audio i can think that is truly effected by covid is The Year of Martha Jones with freema not being able to record but i think Big Finish have worked around with Tom Baker, Paul McGann, Colin Baker, Peter Davison and David Tennant with remote recording- i mean Tom has audios till 2031 and he is recording from his bedroom
plus some studios are open with Christopher Eccleston recording at
