Sub Bonus ST The Horror of Hy-Brasil (Spoilers Ok)

I sent in a question about where to find them in the app. If they respond that they can't be, which is what we are thinking, I'll ask them to add them. I hate to download them to my mac, it runs like molasses, and then have to hook up to iTunes to transfer the files over. My case may not be normal, but my mac and iPhone hate each other.

Thank you very much for sharing that!

Is there anything more you that you can share about the process, or have you already said as much as you can?

Looking down the list, very nice to see a Sixth Doctor & Evelyn story next March - and oooh! December 2018: Eighth Doctor & Harry Sullivan. Thank you, Tony Jones

Oh gosh.

I know so little about the process that I don't even know what questions to ask. So, apologies if these are dumb questions.

How did it differ from your expectations the first time you saw it?
What's it like as an observer?
Did you get any of that famous Big Finish lunch?

I've been lucky enough to go to several recordings at various studios, thanks to writing a few pieces and also doing a few articles for Starburst. The famous lunch (and it is wonderful) is reserved for the Moat studios, but wherever you go the atmosphere is relaxed and people are well fed.

The Subscriber Short Trips are recorded in Croydon, with Neil Gardner doing the engineer / director role and Stephen Critchlow in a soundproof booth in the office, with the green room outside.

Hy-Brasil was recorded third in a block on the same day, and I'd been to studio a few times before.

I know one of the other writers, shinyford . He and I met at Croydon station, shared a cab and made our way to a business estate. We met Ian (I'd met him before at the recording of Rulebook) and he introduced us to Neil and Stephen. As this was Nic's first recording, his was recorded first.

Stephen is well-prepared and reads the stories through pretty much in one take with few pick-ups. On the day he recorded Monkey House / Rulebook / Hy-Brasil / Collector's Item by early afternoon, allowing us to take stock and retire to a satisfying pub lunch and plenty of stories. Even though I'd been in studio for one of my recordings before, there's a real thrill to hearing the title read out by someone else, and knowing it will be released at some point for others to hear.

My first time at the Moat was to interview people during the recording of Survivors Series 1, and it was a bit daunting at first, but that's another story!
