Doctor Who - Big Finish Audio

I came across several Doctor Who Big Finish requests for seasonsofdrabbles , and they got me back into the audios that I really enjoyed over a decade ago. I'm having a blast listening to all these stories again and discovering new ones.

I've started out with the Eight and Charley adventures, since I remember loving them at the time. My two favourites so far are both written by Robert Shearman: The Chimes of Midnight and especially Scherzo (what a brilliant use of the audio format, great script, great acting, and the drama!). I also liked how Invaders of Mars tied in with the original War of the Wars radio broadcast, and The Natural History of Fear was great too - lots of briliant acting in that, and what a twist.

I just arrived at Terra Firma, but since I have this week off from work, I'll probably finish their original run by the end of the week. (I haven't been a huge fan of the Divergent universe storyline, even if I really liked some of the individual stories). Then I'll have to decide if I should proceed with the Lucie Miller ones (I listened to some of those at the time but can't really remember much at all) or if I should try one of the new boxsets like Dark Eyes or Doom Coalition.

I also listened to a bit a bit of Six and Evelyn - I remember really liking them. I adore Evelyn, can't wait to listen to more of those stores. (And I'll have to try some of the other Doctors as well, but there are just so many hours of content :P)
