12 DAYS OF BIGFINISHMAS SALE

ENTER CODE: PLUMPUDDING HERE TO SEE ALL AVAILABLE OFFERS

I’ve not been keeping up with the usual Big Finish holiday sales, but the good news is I think they’re all out now, and you have until 7th JANUARY 23:59 UK time to buy whichever ones you want. Most are availabl for 2.99, apart from boxsets which are also nicely discounted.

Offers include:

Criss-Cross: Introduction of Constance Clarke, a worthy successor to Evelyn — high praise coming from me. A great Main Range bargain.

Return to the Web Planet: originally a 1-hour subscriber bonus audio. A simple story, but I’m fond of it. Zarbi, hang-gliding, and a fun Team Nerd adventure before Big Finish audios got angsty— what’s not to like? (Ok, yes, the 2 humans in this story are a bit naff, but all the nonhuman characters are excellent! ;) )

Several popular Companion Chronicles I still need to hear: the original four (Frostfire, Fear of the Daleks, The Blue Tooth and The Beautiful People narrated by Vicki, Zoe, Liz, and Romana 2 respectively), Quinnis and The Beginning with Susan.

Wave of Destruction, a recent Fourth Doctor Adventure with Romana 2

Torchwood 3: Forgotten Lives

The First Doctor Volume 1, a new first Doctor series with David Bradley and the other actors who played the first TARDIS team in An Adventure in Space and Time.

Bernice Summerfield: Epoch I haven’t had time to get into Benny yet, which is a pity, because I love her in the few audios I’ve heard.

John Hurt in the Invisible Man, the last thing he did before he died. Nominated for the BBC Audio drama “Best Actor” award for 2017. I may grab this one because damn, John Hurt.

Treasure Island with Tom Baker as Long John Silver.

Frankenstein, an authentic retelling of Marry Shelley’s work with Arthur Darvill (!) as Dr. Frankenstein. (Nick is the creature, of course.) 

The Avengers: Comic Strip Adaptations.

Dark Shadows: A Collinwood Christmas.

Sherlock Holmes: The Tangled Skein and The Adventure of the Fleet Street Transparency.

Call Me Jacks: 1-hour interview with Jacqueline Pearce over a bottle of champagne. If I had unlimited time I would very definitely get this; the Supreme Commander of Blake’s 7 (Chessene in The Two Doctors, Cardinal Ollistra in the Time War, and she once tried to marry the Fifth Doctor in Hexagora) is an amazing, brilliant, sharp-tongued lady in RL. 

The Adventures of Luther Arkwright (who?)

I think that’s all of them but go to the offers page to check. Remember, the code is PLUMPUDDING (all caps).

[Free Audiobook] Doctor Who: The Veiled Leopard [1950s Time Travel Sci-Fi TV Tie-In]

As a special Christmas treat, audiobook producers Big Finish, who have an official license to make spin-offs adventures to the popular Doctor Who science fiction television series, are offering a free download for a limited time.

Doctor Who: The Veiled Leopard is a time travel historical side adventure audio drama starring the Doctor's friends and allies, set in 1955, with two teams sent on a seemingly paradoxical mission at cross-purposes to each other.

*Monte Carlo, 1966. Four time travellers. Two missions. One costumed ball. the Doctor has sent Peri and Erimem to prevent the fabulous Veiled Leopard diamond from being stolen. Which is odd, seeing as the Doctor has sent Ace and Hex to steal the diamond. How will the two teams cope with this... *

This is available as DRM-free MP3 and M4B downloads, via the Bigfinishmas 2019 promo page for their holiday sales. Enter the code SANTACLAWS in the box, and then click the button where it says Unlock (requires account signup with valid email address but no payment info) and click again to check that it made it through to your account where you'll be able to download it anytime at your leisure.

Offered until just before midnight British Time (3:59 pm Pacific Time, I think), on December 25th, directly from the publisher.

And on the sixth day of Big Finishmas, they are pleased to offer Torchwood: Night of the Fendahl for £2.99 (download only).

Torchwood vs Monsters!

Marco makes films. You wouldn’t like them. The lighting’s shoddy, the sets are cheap and the sound’s appalling. But there’s an audience for them. Because they’re films in which bad things happen to women.

Marco’s latest venture is based on real events. Events which took place in Fetch Priory many years ago. It’s an anthology piece, and Marco needs one final victim. But the last victim is not who anyone is expecting.

Death has returned to Fetch Priory. And Death is no-one’s victim.
