Big Finish sent through details of the latest one-week only free download, but I can’t remember what they were! I do know there’s a sale on UNIT titles. I’ll put the press release below if I can remember where I put it…

Silenced?

What was I doing? Oh yes! Press release…

It’s the new UNIT team versus terrifying monsters as, decades after their defeat by the Eleventh Doctor, the Silence prepare to rise against humanity… 

Since the beginning of the lockdown imposed by the coronavirus crisis, Big Finish has been releasing weekly FREE DOWNLOADS of audio dramas – or #lockdownloads – for a limited time. 

Every Monday, a new story (or episode from a box set collection) can be downloaded exclusively from the Big Finish web site’s Weekly Deals page at https://www.bigfinish.com/collections/v/weekly-deals.  

These stories can be unlocked by anyone who has registered for a Big Finish account (which is free to create) and played on the Big Finish listening app (which is free to install).  

Each story will be available for one week only, and comes accompanied by a special discount offer on related titles.  

This week’s free title is:  

UNIT: Silenced: – House of Silents, written by Matt Fitton 

Starring Jemma Redgrave and Ingrid Oliver, UNIT – The New Series was the first Big Finish range to use characters from the BBC mega-hit 21st century relaunching of Doctor Who!  

Listeners can download this story FREE from now until 23:59 (UK time) 7 June 2020 at the Big Finish website.   

There is no record of the presence of an alien species known as ‘The Silents’ on Earth. UNIT has never engaged hostiles capable of editing themselves from observers’ memories. 

There is no evidence that such an opponent, if real, is regrouping and beginning a new plan of infiltration and manipulation. 

Kate Stewart and her team are in no mortal danger. How can they be, when they don’t even know the enemy exists? 

For a limited time, Big Finish listeners can also download any of the first three volumes of UNIT – The New Series for 33% off, at the Weekly Deals page.  

Optionally, the bundle price of the complete UNIT – The New Series 1-4 will be available at its lowest ever download price of just £68 when all four volumes are bought together: https://www.bigfinish.com/bundles/list_for_range/27. All these download discounts will expire at 23:59 (UK time) 07 June 2020.  

Big Finish’s schedule of free lockdownload stories has been extended and new free adventures will continue to be released over the next three weeks.
