Am more a Alpha kind of guy 😜 I liked Alpha but I loved Arcturus - the gobby little boil-in-the-bag Dale wannabe! It could be the tentacles 😂

Finally got a chance to read through Vortex... I swear, every time I learn one new detail about Peladon, the set just sounds better and better. Really hoping they spin this out into a series...

Hrm... figures they'd push this one off to the end of the month. Big Finish has a bad habit of saving the best for last...

{Spoiler} Whilst I'm not 100% surprised that it's there, the cameo in part 1 just caused me to swear loudly in excitement... (It's a good thing I'm home alone )

As the 5th Doctor once said "The age old conflict Tradition Vs Progress" Here we have a boxset that deals with the consequences of following the either side of it at various different times, the allegory to real life is obvious at points but this a boxset with 2 standard Doctor Who yarns sandwiched between 2 quietly simply perfect character pieces. Ordeal has a tour de force performance by David Troughton and Truth is an equally thoughtful and fitting Finale What Fan service there is is deftly handled, still waters run deep in Alpha Centuri Even if your not a Peladon fan, but want a showcase of BF styles give this a listen.

Thinking of doing a Peladon revisit before picking this release up. Curse/Monster obviously, but I'm curious to know whether I should revisit Bride or Prisoner before giving this set a listen.

The Bride of Peladon takes place between episodes 2 and 3 of this set, with episode 3 taking place decades after Erimem's rule.

I finished the first two stories and am really enjoying this set. But does anyone sing "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" every time you hear the theme? I mean, I'm Jewish and I can't stop singing it!

Absolutely, I do too! I try and space out listening to new releases (I'm still only part way through 'Watchers' and 'Terra Nostra'), to make them last longer. I've always thought of Peladon as The Trigan Empire (a lavish sci-fi comic strip from the 60s, currently being reprinted and highly recommended) in its depiction of a growing alien culture, and the first story doesn't change my view on that. It's great fun so far, with an unexpected - and if I'm honest, slightly irritating - cameo threatening to break the mood. David Troughton is great as ever, as are the rest of the cast and the story is very enjoyable so far.
