Yeah.... I decided to use some of my recent Ops Bonus on Companion Chronicles (simply because there's no denying that they're canon, alas) but I have a hunch I won't enjoy them. Though I'll admit, I enjoyed The Vault series.

Does the Brigadier have a proper send-off story in the audio series?
Because I find it criminal that RTD didn't have the guts to kill him off. I mean seriously, The Last Stand Of Lethbridge-Stewart would've been almost a classic by default.
And I know he comes back in SJA, but it's not the same.
If Moffat had done the Great Intelligence thing earlier, we could've seen him die fighting the first alien to be immune to bullets."I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational in order to prove that you care... or why it should be necessary to prove it at all."Comment

No. Just...no."A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After LifeComment

Hell it would have been nice if WHOMEVER was in charge of casting for that episode where Matt Smith makes the phone call to The Brigs Old Folks home and he spoke to the nurse (or whatever) has given a performance that didn't sound like a Bored Game Show Presenter....
But then.... Old Show / New Show..I guess.I like Sharky

A question - do my fellow listeners have any scary story recommendations for Halloween? Any Big Finish range is fine.
I'm also thinking of getting my 14 year old daughter to listen to one with me, so does anyone have a recommendation suitable for her, ie no explicit sex or deaths of animals (killing people is fine
).
Flyboy, I know you liked Beyond the Grave, so I thought I'd check that one out.
Does anyone have any more story recommendations?Last edited by Blencathra; 23 September 2014, 03:14 AM.Comment

I was so sad to hear this news. I really liked Evelyn Smythe as a companion. RIP Maggie Stables.

What's the best Evelyn Smythe story out there?
Note: A Doctor has to be involved. I'm not big on the Companion Chronicles thing."I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational in order to prove that you care... or why it should be necessary to prove it at all."Comment

This is going to be an exciting week..."I have never understood why it should be necessary to become irrational in order to prove that you care... or why it should be necessary to prove it at all."Comment
