If you're looking for a mysterious comfie series w/ a fabulous ensemble cast, then look no further than @bigfinish.bsky.social's 'The Eternity Club' by @jamesgoss.bsky.social & @verbatimfoley.bsky.social! Why is Benny here? Why are the others here? Will she ever fit in? What a hilarious blast! 10/10
"Once and Future: Coda - The Final Act" by @verbatimfoley.bsky.social from @bigfinish.bsky.social has arrived & the Big Finish wall has been updated! What a beauty! 🤩

All those Jago & Litefoot recordings were a pure joy. To be in the company of two great raconteurs, full of enthusiasm and commitment, was a rare privilege, and I think Christopher and Trevor's personal warmth and humour and mutual affection came across in every release. RIP Christopher Benjamin.

That was rather very good. The chemistry between the Three Doctor’s was so good.

Hadn’t listened to Stephen’s take on Bill, which I thought was great.

The whole story was exciting.

Do I go by the UK release date and call Vengeance Most Fowl the best movie of 2024 or go by the US release date and call it the best movie of 2025?

'Deadly Strangers' from @bigfinish.bsky.social is a wonderful boxset! Matthew Jacobs makes a tremendous return to #DoctorWho, Lisa McMullin writes the perfect historical for this trio, & @mooneylwrites.bsky.social & @stewartwpringle.bsky.social do a great job at expanding upon the Mara!

10/10

Apologies if this is considered a hot #DoctorWho take, but I would've preferred it if the first four Big Finish 3DA volumes had used Jon Pertwee's title sequence face for the covers (see Volume 3), rather than the exact same Third Doctor pose twice.

Hello. I’d really like it if everyone could listen to my show today. More listens and engagements means more likelihood of me being allowed to do this nice thing again next year. Absent Friends - 4.45pm (& midnight) BBC Radio 4 Extra:

@bigfinish.bsky.social has invited us all to join The Master as he tells eery tales of the macabre with a cool twist! What a helluva run, @scotthandcock1984.bsky.social! I'm looking forward to the future. A must listen for fans of The War Master & Gothic horror. 10/10
