Really Big Finish? Removing his name from the cover and website? He is physically on the cover it’s like the same thing they pulled with Dreyfus It’s stupid Dreyfus was a I need to stop swearing terf, he deserved what happened, and I'm pissed that now we can't have anymore First Master because of his transphobic bigotry. Comparing Sean Biggerstaff to Dreyfus just makes me hella I need to stop swearing worried about what Sean has does. At best he argued with Tracy-Ann Oberman about something that could be taken as antisemetic. Him being knocked off the cover is worrying as hell.

But what’s the point the persons face is still on there? It just seems Laughable that removing a persons name would do anything

They should have redone the cover completely. I do find it strange that, given it is audio, BF always make the character look exactly like the person playing them.

Just take into consideration the numerous aliens that have appeared on Big Finish covers over the years. Hell, Volume Four of the Diary of River Song has a giant bug on the cover which I’m fairly certain shares no physical resemblance to the actress who voices her.

True, but I am talking about human characters not numerous aliens or giant bugs.

I think the reason they tend to use actors' faces is because of two reasons:
1. It allows them to use their own photography, and therefore get a wider range of possible shots. 2. If they use stock photos, they have to be way more careful that they don't use the same person twice. This is especially difficult given the number of BF cover artists.

The Narrator character interests me. Reckon that’s for the Western story?

That's certainly... a Cyberman, huh?
I love how Big Finish covers will just mix-and match aesthetics like that.

So first episode done and this feels weirdly flat compared to the first series. Like some of the original energy is missing. Biggerstaff’s performance doesn’t help as he’s so deadpan throughout, it sounds like he’s just mildly bored by everything. Maybe a symptom of virtual recording. {Spoiler} I’m not entirely convinced of the point of giving Jenny a TARDIS only for her to immediately ditch it? Her discovery of it was a lovely scene and it feels earned, putting her on an equal footing with her father. But no she ditches it to go back to a generic spaceship.
