I've just noticed that on the Lady Christina page, they've billed It Takes a Thief 'by Matt Fitton' - I'm guessing that is a typo for John Dorney, or else the rumours are true and they are actually Siamese twins.

Part of a bundle with the Jenny release but no discount for buying as a bundle? What's the point in that? If you're an international CD purchaser you save 50p on shipping! But, considering that Jenny is already bundled with River 4 and 5, I'll have to get the Lady Christina box set separately.

I'm guessing its Dorney since it says so in the news article and also in the "Written by" part on its own page, right below where it says it's by Fitton (not that this means the rumors aren't true, of course).

Ooh, this is exciting! Lady C is one of my most favourite characters; she's seriously underrated. I hope they'll pair her up with Tennant, Smith or Capaldi in the future. Seeing as it's bundled with Jenny, I might get these when I have some money to spare (right now my priority is Ravenous ).

Interesting! I had a feeling we’d be seeing more from Lady Christina following the TDC but I didn’t expect something so soon. She’s got lots of potential so I’m very intrigued, especially with the UNIT connection.

am getting old? are BF overloading the market? or am i possibly about done with expanding the doctor who universe.....
probably a bit of all three, judging by you guys positive reaction.
i am a bit sick of these links to the new series, expanding stuff just for the sake of it just because they have a licence.
will i buy it ? yes slavishly but straight away like always, but i think i am at the limit of female companion adventure centric box sets i can take.
how about swapping sides and giving us some "baddie" expanded universe or exploring somewhere through other eyes, than former companion or the doctor.
its not a bad idea for a box set, but does not set my world on fire.

What a huge (non) surprise. I'm more interested in this than I was in the Jenny box set, which I ended up ordering anyway, so I'll probably give this one a go. Between Jenny, Benny, Lady Christina, River & Charley, I'd love to see a companions team up box set. Hell, throw in Ace and really blow some stuff up!

I'm thinking the name of the series may change down the line, though. Lady Christina isn't exactly the most catchy of titles.

(Shrug) Sounds interesting enough, not a priority buy for me, but sounds interesting enough...

Series one? Interesting... And a Sontaran, doubly interesting...
I do kinda wish that they hadn't had both Sylvia and the Slitheen back again in this - seems a little too close considering both are returning in 10DC too, but that's a minor niggle, I suppose.

Looks like a Christopher Ryan Sontaran too. It's a nice cover, but I thought the 'look' for Lady Christina would be a little darker somehow, I don't know why.

I'll be honest... that doesn't look great.

The Who logo is a bit obscured in that. Also, I'm surprised that they couldn't get a new photo of Warren Brown?

I am pleased to see all the positive reaction to this release.
Personally, just like with the Tales of New Earth, I would have liked more of a cross over to the Classic series or like the Master joining UNIT for a boxset have them employ Lady Christina for an audacious heist!
Oh well Nick said (somewhere - podcast or Vortex) that they had plans for more of the New meeting the Old...so I guess I’ll just have to wait for the replacement to CD:NM
