Interesting i thought we would have gotten Jenny Series 2 Well, hopefully we will get that too I wonder if they've booked Michelle Ryan in for an appearance in the 10th Doctor Chronicles Volume 2 as well...? I'm honestly a bit surprised to Christina get a 2nd volume, I didn't listen to the first (that's not to say I never will, just haven't got the time/budget to branch out that far right now) and I've got the impression Lady Christina was seen as something of a niche/ one and done character? (well, compared to say Jenny, who long before she joined Big Finish was often talked about by fans as a possible spinoff, surprised that hasn't had a 2nd voluem announced yet...) Then again, I don't think anyone expected Jago and Lightfoot to last as long as did, and develop into such a great range...certainly curious to see(hear) how BF develop Christina moving forwards...and I'm betting on Michelle Ryan and Tennant eventually doing a fullcast story (or ten) together... Bit dissapointed this seems further evidence than 3 disc boxsets will become the norm moving forwards, hope that dosen't mean a complete focus on 3 act story structures and the dropping of more experimental/'breather' episodes...

The first set was a lot of fun, I'm up for this.

Well that's a surprise! Given how it's been radio silence since the first set, I was under the impression it hadn't sold well. Guess I'm wrong!

Must admit like a few of you I thought Jenny would get a second series over Lady Christina but evidently the character has garnered quite an audience since that first series.
Not exactly something I’m interested in but I hope the fans of her series enjoy seeing a few more outings for her.
Almost wonder if she’ll make an appearance in other places now that I say that. Diary of River Song, meeting other Doctors, etc.

I wonder if the long lost great aunt of Lady Christina will be played by Sian Phillips. It seems such an obvious casting choice.

Yep. On my father’s side. I mean, I tend to think of myself as fully English and fully Australian, but that’s the technicality.

I am having pretty much the same reaction as everyone else here - pleased, but slightly surprised as I too was under the impression series 1 hadn't sold too well

It’s been planned for ages. We’d have had it earlier but for the pandemic!

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.
