Two infamously “lost” Doctor Who stories have been resurrected in all their beautifully-produced audio drama glory today, with the original cast returning to bring them back to life – thanks to Big Finish.

Review: Jago & Litefoot Forever
Review by Doctor Squee (Host of Gallifrey Stands Podcast)
I have both been eagerly anticipating this release and also wanting the day never to come that I would know I’d be listening to the last new audio release from Messers Jago (Christopher Benjamin) & Litefoot (Trevor Baxter).

Review: Doctor Who – The Churchill Years (Vol. 2)
Review by Doctor Squee (Host of Gallifrey Stands Podcast)
I think I said this then I reviewed vol. 1, but Ian McNeice’s Churchill was already perfect. How does he then keep making it better? However he does it, he has outdone himself again in this 2nd audio volume of Churchill’s Doctor Who world adventures from Big Finish.

Review: Doctor Who – The Memory Bank and other stories
Review by Doctor Squee (Host of Gallifrey Stands Podcast)
I am always amazed at how many different types of storytelling Big Finish comes up with; Two hour stories divided up into episodes, hour long adventures, box sets with 3 or 4 interlinking hour long stories and short trips. Then they throw into the mix the 4 half-hour stories in one release!
Review – Doctor Who: The War Doctor Vol 3. ‘Agents of Chaos’
Review by Doctor Squee (Host of Gallifrey Stands Podcast)
See our review of The War Doctor: Vol 1: Only the Monstrous
The really impressive thing about the War Doctor range (yes apart from getting John Hurt to do it, the amazing scripts, wonderful directing and music) is the fact that each set whilst following a through-line has its own unique feel and theme. Agents of Chaos is no exception. The idea of having people and items that add a wild card to an already chaotic universe beset by the Time War is inspired.
