Not crazy about Adric, but good news for Waterhouse. I wonder if this'll be a Main Range deal now that the Fifth Doctor Box-set was well-received.

What if it's not even with the 5th Doctor? It could be a School Reunion-type 10th Doctor adventure where 10 meets him. The show is about time travel after all so Adric could meet 10 before he snuffed it .

We all get you prefer the post 2005 stuff, most of us like it all, not everything has to have a post 2005 element in it!

Are we finally getting the 2nd 5th Doctor box set? Let's hope because that was one of the best Big Finish releases of 2014.

I really hope this is a main range as I really don't want another box set with Adric.

I'd actually be okay with either MR or a box set.
But I suppose if it is MR it wouldn't be till 221-223 which means it wouldn't be coming out till next year. A box set could come out sooner than that.

Given the relaunch of the main range last year, I wonder if we're looking at Adric featured tales in the main range?

Or maybe it's adventure with Adric and a Clara shard where they travel along the Doctor's timeline to save the 1st Doctor from slipping on a banana peel whilst also introducing the banana to Gallifrey for a two-fer. Laughs & highjinks a-plenty.

They did a very good job revitalising the character over those two stories that (provided Waterhouse looses the falsetto) we could be in for some really good stories with him in the near future.

They did a very good job revitalising the character over those two stories that (provided Waterhouse looses the falsetto) we could be in for some really good stories with him in the near future. He has only had two stories worth of recording to try recreate Adric's voice (you try and sound like the way you did as a teenager), so I'm giving him some more time to work it out. He'd also have had to do the same thing for each story to maintain consistency, or else be accused of going all over the place. While Matthew has done a couple of Target Readings (The Visitation and Full Circle), he had to do voices for all the other characters while reading for five hours straight, and for the Visitiation he also had to put on an Aussie accent when doing Tegan (that came out wrong). At least Matthew got closer to his Adric voice than Deborah Watling has for Victoria Waterfield, that's very husky and hoarse.

At least Matthew got closer to his Adric voice than Deborah Watling has for Victoria Waterfield, that's very husky and hoarse. Honestly, it's the only criticism I can level at his performance and it's a very natural affectation to take if you consider the sheer number of years that have passed between 1982 and 2016. Thing is though... From what I've heard of his voice normally, he really doesn't need it. His voice really hasn't changed that much to warrant trying to mask it, judging from his Dark Shadows roles. Actually, now that I think about it, it sounds more like a directing choice than anything else. Hmm... I wonder... Yeah, some voices age better than others. Something happened to Peter Davison's around The Chaos Pool, but nothing beyond sounding a little older than long expected, while on the flip side Sylvester McCoy and Colin Baker feel as though they'll take their voices to the end of their tenures on Big Finish. Same goes with a lot of their companions; Sophie Aldred, Lisa Bowerman, Nicola Bryant (who I've learnt from a 1993 convention video can really sing), Bonnie Langford, etc.

The show is about time travel after all so Adric could meet 10 before he snuffed it . The Boy That Time Forgot has a post-Earthshock Adric portrayed by Andrew Sachs for that one story, (in an alternative timeline where he solved the Cybermen's logic codes and didn't die), but it's not a well-received take on the character. Some of the behind the scenes content (notably with Peter and Sarah) also isn't very charitable towards Mr Waterhouse, so it's good we have far better stories with Adric. The views of Matthew Waterhouse held by Peter, Janet and Sarah at the time of production aren't entirely positive, and their treatment of him in DVD commentaries isn't always comfortable listening.

Here I was thinking that fact was the "Rosebud" of Doctor Who fandom... Shame on me for that. Wait until you get to the other companion deaths, Adric's seems truly mild by comparison.
