Cheers

The basic thing I understand is that Big Finish does not like to announce projects until they are in the bag. So many things can go wrong in the process and they have been burned in the past. I would really hate to be this writer if something does go south with this before it is finished.

Didn't Peter Davison leak this first...? And I was there and so was Nick Briggs Looks like we've identified the leaker. What did kimalysong know and when did she know it?

He's being harsh there. The toothpaste can't be put back in the tube and it's not her fault it got out. The news is on here, facebook, GB and Twitter. BF lost the chance to "announce" it this morning which is lamentable but it is what it is. Nothing to be gained rebuking the star of the set before she's actually recorded it other than an unhappy talent.

Is it a good thing to publically scold your leading actress? Not at all. It's slightly insane, actually, considering that he runs the risk of alienating not only the star but also (by relation) two former Doctors!

Agreed. Is it a good thing to publically scold your leading actress? It certainly doesn't look gracious... I've got to admire the way BF can keep a secret - for example with the War Doctor, which was an absolutely astonishing coup, and was all the more exciting for being surprising. But if they could be a little more fleet of foot when stuff gets out their ahead of time... for example, they could have limited the damage with the 10th Doctor leak by responding to, rather than ignoring, the journalist doing his job. Here, perhaps having a contingency plan could mean they could react more quickly to regain some control when the story slips out early... Still, I hope this has no long term effect on the project or anyone involved in it. I'm looking forward to this one.

The few times he has come out with tweets when something has ticked him off I find that Nick can be very unprofessional with how he words things and his comment comes off a lot worse than intended. He's the same if you speak even slightly negatively towards anything he is involved with.

Not sure about that - he's been very narky to reviewers and fans online before so it's not out of character. Given how angry he got about the 10DA leak, I think you're probably not right in believing it's meant to be a joke. He - understandably - takes such matters very seriously. In fact he'd be downright silly replying as a joke given BF haven't actually announced it yet. He made it "official" with the ticking off.

Guys, I'm pretty sure Nick Briggs is joking with her, it's what people who know each other tend to do

That's also what people who know each other have a tendency to do from time to time, especially in a professional environment. We had the "It's his humour" defence when he mocked one of this site's reviewers for only giving Charley's boxset a very good rather than excellent review! If nothing else...there's not actually a joke in his tweet. Sarcasm, sure, but not a joke.

I would really hate to be this writer if something does go south with this before it is finished. That only seems to be true when it suits them though. Unless McGann has already recorded all 16 Time War stories, which I doubt.

I guess I shouldn't be putting any money away for The Tenth Doctor Adventures Volume 3 then?

Lol some ones in trouble lol Feels like that time Blogtor Who leaked the announcement of the first volume of Tenth Doctor stories. Good thing the writer wasn't on Game of Thrones, he'd have been fired for something like this. But didn't that turn out to be Nick's fault for not being clear with the Blogtor Who writer?

I logged on to the forum, saw this thread title and instantly popped over to the BF site to read the news. Upon not seeing anything there I said to myself, "Self, I wonder how Nick is handling this."
