"And now the End is near" for the MRs
A long awaited gap can be plugged for B7 Collectors
Can the 8th Doc keep Past Present and Future from colliding in Stranded
Do we need another Hero when the Master takes on the Daleks for the planet
Owen does an updated "Robin's Nest"
2 BF debuts and 2 of the more intriguing Lost Stories materialize
10th Doc "likes Soul Music" in the final Sub Bonus ST Regards

A very strong month for releases I must say. Both the Fourth Doctor Lost Stories sound great and I really like the sound of The End of the Beginning but I just have to go with Master! as my most anticipated release.
Really curious to see what they do with his overlooked incarnation.

Mainly Hyped for Master! Roberts Finally has a chance to not be overshadowed by his other incarnations in his own range plud he gets to face The Daleks and Vienna
The Lost Stories should be great- A Season 17 Era story and The Return of Harry and Sarah Jane Smith so thats exciting
The End of The Beginning- the final main range story (technically not true as The Lost Resort and Perils and Nightmares are yet to be released) but yeah should be exciting 8 and Charley, Five and Turlough and 6 and Constance are united so that should be good. kinda worried about the writer Robert Valentine as i was not a fan of The Lovecraft Invasion and Calypso
Stranded 2...eh i bought it for the brig and 8 reunion (which yeah its been 20 years since they last met in Minute in Hell) giving it a shot despite not enjoying Stranded 1
Stranded 2

All of the Doctor Who releases.
The End of the Beginning I don’t have much to say about currently, except I’m very intrigued by the limited involvement of the Seventh Doctor and how that will be incorporated into the story.
I’ve been very critical of the Eric Roberts Master in Big Finish, as I think he’s been stilted and lifeless and had very little material. Whilst the latter still applied in Masterful, I enjoyed his involvement in the Beevers plot in that story, enough to make the pre-order.
I really enjoyed the refreshing change that Stranded brought, its expanded cast and the integration of The Curator. I’m a little apprehensive that they’ve got the TARDIS working to some degree so early on, but if it’s an opportunity to expand on the guest cast then I’m sure it’s worth it.
I’m excited for the two Lost Stories. Return of the Cybermen features my favourite TARDIS team, who have always been rather poorly served in the expanded universe, so I can’t wait to revisit them. The Doomsday Contract sounds like a lot of fun and I’ve enjoyed the Season 17 madness of the novel adaptations and this seems to be more of the same.

I'll be there for the end of the MR of course and 'Master!' is the joker in the pack this month, looking forward to it but...
I really really want to go back to the Seventies with the magnificent Fourth Doctor - and Sarah and Harry and Romana. Those two Lost Stories are definitely my most anticipated!
EDIT: And with you too K-9! 'Affirmative!'

A couple good ones for me next month (March 2021). Most looking forward to Doctor Who: Return of the Cybermen, the trailer was great. Also Doctor Who: The Doomsday Contract, Doctor Who: Stranded 2 & Master! should be good despite the presence of Daleks again(!), I've always liked Eric Roberts' Panto villainy.

Awesome month for releases!!!
Stranded 2 for me at the top of the list. Absolutely loved part 1. And if I find some spare pennies down the back of the sofa, Return of the Cybermen is surely next up... looks gorgeous!

not such a good month for me
not really excited for master release after masterful......still reeling from that bitter disappointment
and sadness at the last main range title, but looking forward to it
so its return of the cybermen for me that am most looking forward too.

The End of the Beginning, for sure. It’s end of an era, can’t not.
Very tempted by the Fourth Doctor Lost Stories. Curious about Return cos I love a good Cyberman story, and Miller and Naylor’s debuts, and Doomsday Contract sounds like Douglas Adams style whimsy which is right up my street.

Almost everything for me this month; I've already got the hardback of Lucifer: Genesis, so I don't see the point in the audiobook myself I'm looking forward to each release, but there's only one that really jumps out at me as "I can't wait to hear this", and that's Return of the Cybermen. I have so many happy childhood memories of watching our Ark in Space DVD, or borrowing the double-pack Sontaran Experiment/ Genesis or Revenge of the Cybermen VHS's from the local library. Though I didn't know it as Season 12 at the time, that season is everything I loved about the show as a kid, and Four, Sarah, and Harry are one of the major reasons for that. I'm not sure I've been this excited for an upcoming release for quite some time, so hopefully my anticipation doesn't set my bar higher than the story can deliver. Honestly though, I can't wait to hear it either way!

I have both the two Fourth Doctor Lost Stories on pre-order.
However if I had been on the fence regarding the Cyberman story I think I might have been put off by Nick’s comments on the most recent podcast.

Basically he said it was a lost story for a reason because it wasn’t a very good story - that isn’t what he said word for word, but that was the gist of it. He was basically saying it wasn’t made originally for a reason, which is why he isn’t a fan of doing lost stories.

Especially when you’re trying to build up hype for it and the amount of trailers that were released last year for it.

Then again the replacement story wasn't very good.
