The Eighth Doctor as played by Paul McGann
Not from being trapped in London, or from lockdown, instead Christmas is the reason the cast of Stranded 2 has gone crackers. Big Finish has also given an update on stories and plotline for this March release. Details below…
The Big Finish main range of Doctor Who stories began with Sirens of Time, a multi-Doctor tale and ends in similar fashion. This time four Doctors as Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann bid farewell to the monthly releases. The release is The End of the Beginning, and is written by Robert…
This week’s (12 October 2020) free download from Big Finish is The Eleven. There’s also (of course) a related sale. Details below…
Big Finish has revealed another part of Time Lord Victorious, this time it’s a vinyl release for two Doctors. We’ve linked adventures for Paul McGann’s Eighth Doctor and David Tennant’s Tenth Doctor. The vinyls can be listened to in either order! The Big Finish press release follows below.
Here’s a 20,000 feet view of Doctor Who: Stranded 1 — the TARDIS is defunct, the Eighth Doctor, Liv and Helen are living in Baker Street with a set of new people. Two more familiar faces are also involved: the Curator and Sgt Andy Davidson. There are three more boxsets to come. Question: will any…
I’ve been thinking (on and off) about the Stranded 1 boxset. While I believe I understand why the new approach, I’ve had some niggling doubts about the set as a whole. Plenty to enjoy, yet a sense of is that it? when I got to the end. It’s also a long wait for the next…
David K Barnes brings the first set of Eighth Doctor Stranded stories to a close with Divine Intervention. Welcome back to London, 2020. Broken TARDIS, problems with money and a house full of people with their own backstories. Does this final (for now) story make things clearer or add to the mysteries (spoiler — it…
The first Eighth Doctor set of Stranded stories continues (from Wild Animals) with Lisa McMullin’s Must-see TV. The Doctor, Liv and Helen are still trapped in London 2020, and we have arrivals in the form of Sgt Andy Davidson (Tom Price) and Mr Bird (Clive Wood). Science fiction is back on the agenda but we’re…
Doctor Who Stranded takes the Eighth Doctor, Liv and Helen from where they left off in Lost Property and reinforces the message — this is not a standard bang crash, in-out adventure. This is real life and it can be a bit mundane. John Dorney takes over writing for Wild Animals. It’s another day near…
With Stranded, Big Finish takes the Eighth Doctor, Liv and Helen to a Covid-free version of London 2020. There they must survive without TARDIS and most of the Doctor’s trickery (no sonic nor psychic paper). Instead they might even have to get jobs! It’s all very different and for me, overdue. I’m reviewing these one…
Big Finish has just released the first in the latest Eighth Doctor boxsets — Stranded 1. It’s 2020, but not as we know it. Details below, look out for my review soon. Lots to look forward too!
Big Finish has released extensive details for its contribution to Time Lord Victorious, and there’s a lot to take in. Let’s just say Paul McGann, Eighth Doctor, new writers and more. Details below…
