I mostly enjoyed Doctor Who: Wicked Sisters by Simon Guerrier, and found it a welcome change of pace compared to some other titles. It’s not perfect and while the idea of the Fifth Doctor and Leela wishing to put the tracer twins aka Graceless sisters Abby and Zara out of commission has its merits, I’d…
Great news of a new Fifth Doctor boxset with Peter Davison and Louise Jameson back as Leela. And there’s more – it’s the return of the tracer twins Abby and Zara!
I took a listen to Simon Guerrier’s Graceless 4 – my thoughts are on CultBox: ‘Doctor Who’ spin-off review: ‘Graceless’ returns for an engaging fourth box set. Well done to Simon, producer Mark Wright, director Lisa Bowerman and all the cast! *** Message Ends ***
So, you’re the Tracer twins, Abby and Zara, created by the Grace to locate the segments of the Key to Time, long since stripped of your powers and now called Amy and Joy. What happens next? Simon Guerrier answers this question in Graceless 4. The details are still emerging, but the cunning twist is time passes…
I finally caught up with Graceless just in time for Graceless IV to be announced (just before I listened to III). I also had the benefit of listening to the extras at the end of Worlds of Big Finish. Graceless III is now two years old, so I shall allow myself a level of spoilers but not enough to ruin the…
Big Finish released their crossover / heroes assemble special, Worlds of Big Finish in mid-May 2015. I was surprised at a somewhat mixed reaction from fans on the forum who seemed to judge it according to standards I didn’t feel were appropriate. For me I took this as a well priced 3 CD release covering a host of…
I really enjoyed Graceless I and am pleased at the news there will be a Graceless IV. Meanwhile I am listening to the earlier series (and enjoyed their opener for Worlds of Big Finish), so how did I find 2011’s December release of Graceless II? Did it hit the same levels as the high standard reached in the first…
On a Bank Holiday Monday, Big Finish has slipped out the news of a further series of Graceless! I’m almost sure it’s because I started catching up with this excellent Simon Guerrier series (see my review of Series I) but I suppose it might also be recent sales figures and the Worlds of Big Finish release as…
I reviewed Worlds of Big Finish over on Cultbox, a review will follow here at some point. Even though not a Doctor Who title, four (so far) of the included stories have connected (Graceless, Iris Wildthyme, Vienna and Bernice Summerfield). The review is: ‘Worlds of Big Finish’ audio story review. *** Message Ends ***
I have finally listened to 2010’s release of Simon Guerrier’s Graceless and was rather impressed with it (and annoyed I hadn’t grabbed a copy earlier). They may not be real people, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t care what happens to them. Given these are not new I may be more generous with the spoilers. Following on…
As part of the build up to this month’s Worlds of Big Finish, is a surprise 48-hour offer on both Graceless and the Key2Time trilogy. Again (as happened a year or so ago during a Graceless sale), the trilogy is just coming to the end of run on BBC Radio 4 Extra, but that might not be enough reason to turn…
At Big Finish Day 6, a new special was announced. To be released in May 2015 is a special The Worlds of Big Finish (aka Big Finish Assembles;-). The news item is NEW RELEASE ANNOUNCED – THE WORLDS OF BIG FINISH! This is a Scott Handcock project and is six half hour stories, all written by David Llewellyn.
