Big Finish has given more details for Ravenous 3, beyond those revealed at Big Finish Day. The second story (Companion Piece by John Dorney) has no Eighth Doctor, but has Charley, Bliss, River Song, Liv Chenka and Helen Sinclair all in one episode. Add The Nine and this will be a feast for the ears! The news…

Over on The Doctor Who Companion they’re having an Eighth Doctor week, and as part of that I was asked to contribute a guide for new listeners on audio, suggesting which Big Finish Paul McGann titles they might start with.
Doctor Who: Ravenous 1 review
What’s not to like? John Dorney and Matt Fitton combine to give us four stories in the Eighth Doctor and Liv Chenka’s search for Helen Sinclair. Will The Eleven still be around, and just what is the Kandy Man up to? My thoughts over on CultBox: Doctor Who: Ravenous 1 review. *** Message Ends ***
Doom Coalition 4 review
After four boxsets giving us sixteen hours of innovative adventure for the Eighth Doctor with adversaries new and old, Doom Coalition has come to an end.

River and the Eighth Doctor – first thoughts on Doom Coalition 2
I’ve kept the most intriguing of the June 27 announcements to last; River Song and the Eighth Doctor together (we assume) in Doom Coalition 2. This has a specific release date of May 2016 and now three companions: Liv Chenka, Helen Sinclair and River Song. How will this work and what potential is there for fan-moments? How…
Who is Helen Sinclair?
Tucked away in today’s licence announcement from Big Finish is this phrase: and a new era for the Eighth Doctor, Liv Chenka and their new friend Helen Sinclair in Doctor Who: Doom Coalition
Timelines: The Eighth Doctor
The Eighth Doctor‘s timeline is the most open to interpretation given all we know is one TV story and that he is in some ways the bridge to the new TV series from the Classic. To set out the sequence I will use the rule of ‘follow the companion’ (and the wiki entry – update October…
