My review of Big Finish # 69 Three’s a Crowd is available at Amazon.com here.
This was the last of the 5th Doctor Peri/Erimem stories that I didn’t have. I don’t think there was a bad one in the batch.

Doctor Who The Game: Amazon Review

My review of the Big Finish audio #66 The Game staring Peter Davidson and Sarah Sutton as the 5th Doctor and Nyssa is available at Amazon.com here.
The episode is significant by the appearance of William Russell in the role of Lord Carlisle. As fans of the series know he was part of the original cast playing Ian Chesterton.
This was one of the audios I got from Trevor9661 that I mentioned before. One of them Winter for the Adept I reviewed at Amazon long ago (I had the cassette version) An alternate review is here. It turns out this one was autographed by Russell another reason for kudos for Trevor. I’ve listened to one of the other two and will be reviewing it later this week and hope to finish with the final cd by the end of the day on the 6th.

No titles or details have been released concerning these stories yet. In the last few hours Big finish gave the following details:
“We’re trying something a little different next year,” announces executive producer Nicholas Briggs, “with some surprising combinations of Doctors and companions. So it’s with great pleasure that I can announce that Frazer Hines will be reprising the role of Jamie McCrimmon, joining the Sixth Doctor for four brand new adventures.”
Three of these stories will comprise a season of full-cast plays, to be released between April and June. The fourth will be a tie-in Companion Chronicle story, which will be released in May, and will be performed by Hines alongside an as yet unnamed guest star. Hines, of course, accompanied the Second Doctor in his travels on TV between 1966-1969, and returned alongside the Second and Sixth Doctors in The Two Doctors (1984).

And if that wasn’t enough big news they have further announced that not only will Janet Fielding Return as Tegan but we will have Tegan, Turlough and Nyssa in the tardis together AT THE SAME TIME
from the BBC Site
July 2010 brings another season of three stories, this time reuniting members of the TV cast for the first time in 26 years. “Janet Fielding will be back as Tegan Jovanka,” says Briggs, “for three stories that include Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, Sarah Sutton as Nyssa and Mark Strickson as Vislor Turlough. Getting these actors together in one studio is a first for us – Janet has only done one play with us before, while Mark now lives in New Zealand. But they’ve all committed to the project and we couldn’t be more excited!”
For a year that was supposed to be thin for us Doctor Who fans an awful lot is happening.
Update: and I can’t believe that I forgot to mention that Forever Janette the Dr. Who/ Forever Knight crossover is back today too, our cup Tardis runnith over.
Doctor Who Zagreus: Amazon Review

My review of # 50 in the Big Finish Doctor Who series. Zagreus is available at Amazon.com here.
It not only features doctors 5,6,7 and 8 but also has Doctor #3 Jon Pertwee appearing via fan recording that you likely haven’t heard.
It is a very odd story and I’ve written the review in the style of the Zagreus rhymes so you might find it confusing.
You can buy this and all the other Big Finish audios via Mail order from Mike’s comics.
