For me, 2019 will be what I like to call "The Year of the Spinoffs", where I'll be primarily focused on getting spinoff releases (Dalek Empire, Counter-Measures, Gallifrey, Graceless, etc) and non-Doctor Who releases (Dark Shadows, Survivors, etc). Chances are, I probably won't get any Main Range stuff for that year. Almost every single year since 2015, I focused on hitting specific ranges in Big Finish.
2015-Mid 2016: The Year of the Monthly Range (Started 1-50) 2016: The Year of the New Series 2017: The Year of Nothing (I got nothing that year) 2018: The Year of the Monthly Range 2 (Finished 1-50, Finished 51-100)
What about you? Do you have any plans for 2019?

As its 20th Anniversary of DW at BF my plan is to re-listen to my collection and of course the new stuff as and when its released but what order to listen to the previously released stuff in? BF release order or Doctor order?
Regards

What about you? Do you have any plans for 2019? As 2019 is the 20th Anniversary of the first Big Finish Doctor Who release there should be plenty of cool releases to buy... including The Legacy of Time special set of stories For me personally, in 2019 I will just continue to buy the Big Finish stories that I like the sound of, like I have been doing since 2000. So, Seek, locate, buy... and then, enjoyminate!!!

relistening I've been so focussed on getting up to date I haven't done any in years (I think I relistened to the first Countermeasures in 2014) I reckon I should be more or less as up-to-date on my listening as I'm going to be, by the end of January. (there's hardly any audio releases still available that I haven't got that I am still considering getting - maybe Shakespeare....or Earthsearch?)
The big problem is deciding what to relisten to (first)

I’m hoping to finally get through my Benny and Dark Shadows backlog.

To be honest, think I'll be cutting down on purchases. Increasingly finding series that are not for me. So will be more cautious about new ranges & save some cash for the good stuff!

Yes, same as 2018 - I'm listening to things ONLY when I'm in the mood. I spent a few years before that listening ASAP on release and finding sI wasn't in the right place for it. This means I now have a backlog but that's good - more variety. I've enjoyed more of what I've listened to by not needing to be among the first to listen and post about it anymore. Of course I miss much of the debate but I'd rather be late to a good party than on time for a bad one.

The (new) Avengers stuff, Callan 2 if it comes out, Cyberman 2 and somehow collect a few more Tomorrow People and Sapphire and Steel.
And I'll keep on mentioning that Counter Measures should be resurrected.

Well thanks to the many wearhous clearances and 51-100 being discontinued in addition to me finding spotify, my back catalogue has decreased dramatically and im finally, after 4 years of catching up, finally starting to get there (on what i want anyway) I still have a way to go but im starting to get to the point where i can start getting new releases, from the past couple months ive got Diary of River Song volume 4, Seventh Doctor volume 1 and The War Master 2, with Diary of river song 5 and Missy already in the bank for next year and a birthday in april, im quite confident im going to be able to keep up with releases next year (and boy do i want to, have you seen all the fantastic releases coming up for the 20th, and the large quantity-if i got behind this year i would be behind for a good while to come) so yeah, my big finish plan is to keep filling in gaps whilst also, for the first time, be able to keep track of a lot of the new releases (and join in the debates about them)

I have pre-ordered so much stuff like never before... all the anniversary releases will be glorious. Plus, I will take my time to do a lot of re-listening.

Hello again.
Pecuniary difficulties will mean no new stuff for me. However, with another Wholess year after Jan. 1st,I have my Fifth Doctor tour to complete. I am currently enjoying The Emerald Tiger. After that it's off to McCoyland and then Eighth Doctor stories.
I am looking forward to the Peri and Erimem sequence and hearing the Eighth Doctor stories with Charley and Lucie again will be good too. I am planning my first ever listen to Zagreus amongst this. McCoyland will be interesting as the stories I haven't heard yet such as Boombang a bang and The Rapture have mixed reviews.
I have an interesting year ahead. Be seeing you.
Oh and to all my fellow listeners in this Divergent Universe of ours, my very best wishes to you all for a peaceful 2019.

I'm planning to get through more of the Lost Stories and Companion Chronicles ranges as I haven't heard all of the stories from those ranges yet. Also planning to hear more Short Trips. No re-listens planned because I still have a lot of fresh material to hear from those ranges. I've got a lot pre-ordered, too, so I'll be busy!

My only BF plans are to keep listening, keep spending more money than I should, and to keep spending more time than I should chatting with all of you other crazy people. Have a wonderful New Year!

If you listen to stories and enjoy them, that's all that matters. And The Rapture and Bang-Bang-A-Boom are both fab.

Hello again,
Thanks Kennysmith, I usually only use reviews from different sources as a rough guide, when I am buying stories. I have certainly enjoyed stories that a majority of other people have not and vice versa.
All the best for your writing goals this year too.

Considering a chronological whole Doctor listen through once I finish the numerous releases I have. Now, which of them, I do not know. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

The Main Range.
Frankly my collection is a mess. There are more holes in it than a Swiss cheese and in a lot of cases I genuinely cannot recall if I have actually listened to them or not.
So starting tomorrow I'll start from scratch with 'The Sirens of Time' and work my way through the range throughout the year, plugging gaps as I go. Hopefully by next New Year's Eve I might have caught up, or at the very least have reached 'Muse of Fire' in the subscriptions.
That's the plan anyway..
