Bicyclops posted:I prefer chronological order by release, personally. I made a spreadsheet by just going to the wikipedia page with all the releases and CTRL-F-ing for, say "September, 2016," but mine is hopelessly out of date these days. Big Finish has a limited version of that on there site: https://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/v/monthly-series The find and filter on the side. But if you're in the main range page, it only covers that. If you go into each specific Doctor, you can filter those too.

Which set should I grab from Big Finish while I have an extra $20? UNIT: Cyber-Reality, or The Worlds of Doctor Who?

Haven't listened to UNIT yet, but Worlds is merely ok.

Since I don't think Season 26 has any Tardis interior scenes I'm just going to assume that's what they're flying around in from now on.

We really don't *need* to see Capaldi go back for that cameo during the Time War, it's okay to just know it happened at some point. He showed a remarkable amount of restraint which is honestly unlike him.

Yeah, I don't think it's important to see, or to know when, I just like speculating on the question of when exactly it might've happened on his personal timeline. My girlfriend suggested that it might've happened before The Magician's Apprentice, on the basis that he's clearly gone through some poo poo between Last Christmas and then, but we never learn exactly what.

Three episodes into Mawdryn Undead and it's both better and more mental than I remember from back in the day. It may be my favorite Five story this side of Androzani. Turlough is the world's least convincing teenage boy, though.

Dunno if it's been mentioned ITT way back in November when it was announced, but I just saw that Big Finish are releasing some Star Cops audio plays. Star Cops is an underappreciated gem and I'm kind of excited to hear about this. And it's tangentially related to DW not just because of Big Finish, but also because of Chris Boucher (who created Star Cops, script edited Blakes 7, and also wrote several classic DW stories, including the one that introduced Leela).

I finished Jago and Litefoot Forever today. I'm glad they were able to put something together as a capstone to the series, especially given the cliffhanger at the end of Series 13. Litefoot's appearance is really obviously cribbed from old dialog; like, I'm pretty sure I'd have been able to tell even if I hadn't known Baxter had passed away. But really, that doesn't matter all that much. It's a fun little send off tale with a heartwarming ending. My only compliant is that Ellie is a little shortchanged, especially given Quick gets another promotion in the course of this one.

My favorite J&L moment came not from the series itself, but from one of the bonus features where they're interviewing Baxter & Benjamin: Baxter: "I'm amazed how they find us all this wonderful young talent to work with!" Benjamin: "Well, they'd be hard pressed to find anyone older."

In the Forever behind the scenes, David Warner laments the end of J&L because he liked working with a pair of leading actors a decade older than he was

I like to think it's due to the lunches Big Finish provides.

It's so endearing both that Capaldi would say that, and that Moffat would immediately burst into laughter upon hearing it. I don't like to infer behind-the-scenes relationships, but I can't help but feel that on some level Capaldi said it because he knew Moffat would get it

Retro TV is airing the War Games for the first time. And it’s still a masterpiece. Breaking it up into two episodes per night means you can’t overdose on the escalation. The madness, and eventual realization of how hosed they are.
