I’m actually a little surprised at this announcement. Don’t get me wrong, I’m don’t think the Heritage series was a complete failure but I always thought it was meant to be a one and done. With the Paternoster Gang relegated to guest appearances or supporting character roles in other stories.
A welcome return though I must say.

Given that the Heritage series had a subtitle under the The Paternoster Gang title, that in itself raised a hope for another series and I'm very glad it's come to fruition.

Heritage scratched that itch for more appearances from The Paternoster Gang with me. Having said that, it was a lot of fun and the leads were a joy to listen to, so I could always be persuaded.

Yep!more is fine by me!Thought Heritage blew hot and cold.Some outstanding episodes,some were mediocre,one or two were poor to say the least.But it was always so much fun!

I’m looking forward to it. Don’t know if I’ll get each set as they come out or wait until they all have come out. If anything I’m interested to see the overall arc and the writers.

This is great news. I had almost given up hope of another series.
Heritage might have had a few issues, but I love these characters and they work so well together.
I will be ordering the series.

Physical series now ordered!
I had hoped we might get a one off box set of Missy’s Victorian era crossing over with the Paternosters, but I doubt that will be the case for this series.
I wonder if there will be a continuation of characters from Heritage who will appear in Trespassers?
Hopefully we haven’t heard the last from Old Smallpiece.
The Paternoster Gang have taken over from Jago & Litefoot as my most anticipated releases, so it would be lovely if Henry Gordon Jago could show up again.

I hope Vella & the Bloomsbury bunch make a reappearance. And also Old Smallpiece. & Jago. 👍🏻 & a super longshot, Jenny’s missing sister Dorothy . |

Like grinch I assumed the last series was a one off, so to find we are going to get four more boxsets from the Paternosters is indeed a pleasant surprise. Heritage was a little uneven at times but the chemistry of the three leads more than made up for any shortcomings. Looking forward to learning further details. That said..with release dates between October 2023 and May 2025 I'm not going to be rushing to order just yet.. |

I myself suspected that Heritage wasn't the last, at least that Big Finish wanted to do. I did think there might have been a bump when Vastra was replaced in Doctor Who: Redacted, but that seems to be all cleared up now.

That was a bit of a surprise, wasn't it. i can only assume Neve McIntosh was unavailable to reprise the role? |

Looking back at my order history, I think Trespass is significantly cheaper than Heritage - at least for UK CD pre-order prices, which is how I buy.
Assuming I am looking at it correctly, Heritage CDs were £24.99 per boxset for 3 episodes whereas these seem to be £19.99 per boxset for 3 eps.
We are quick to criticise BF over pricing when they go up, so credit to them when prices come down.

I’ve always wanted to hear the Paternoster Gang with a Doctor pre-Eleven, as I’ve assumed that it was past Doctors they all originally met to have established the relationship they had at Demon’s Run. Will be interested to see if they establish anything more than putting Eight opposite them, but it may just be enough to get me on board.

All of this sounds like a grand time so I’m very much on board!

Not too sure about bringing Doctor Who into this range, but this is inevitable. It is BF. Overall this fills the Jago & Litefoot gap.

OK with a Doctor showing up as we know the characters had a past with them prior to the TV eps. Also they've not overdone any crossovers with this cast. J&L was an exception but an obvious - and welcome - one.

"The Doctor gets involved in Jenny and Vastra's wedding" also sounds like a great idea for an episode in its own right.

Looks promising. Personally I wonder whether we’ll get a story featuring just how and which Doctor first met Madame Vastra.
And maybe it’s just me, but does that blue haired girl greatly resemble the character of Eve from an episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures? Could there possibly be a connection there?
