My review of the Big Finish 5th doctor adventure The Council of Nicaea staring Peter Davison, Nicola Bryant and Caroline Morris as Erimem is available at Amazon.com here.
It re-writes a bit of history but the story is very enjoyable and worth your time and money as are all the Erimem stories.

My review of Big Finish #72 Doctor Who Terror Firma Staring Paul McGann as the 8th Doctor, India Fisher as Charley Pollard, Conrad Westmaas as Crizz and Terry Molloy as Davors is available at Amazon.com here.
Doctor Who magazine voting not withstanding I have given this audio the lowest rating I’ve ever given any Dr. Who audio I’ve reviewed. It was simply dreadful.
Out of the last 8 of the new series (not counting the three latest that i don’t have yet) that I’m missing there are 3 more Charley, Crizz 8th doctor adventures. I sure hope they are better than this one or I’m steering toward a huge letdown.
If you simply MUST have it to complete your set then Mike’s Comics does carry it, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.
My review of the Big Finish Bonus cd. Her Final Flight, Staring Colin Baker as the 6th Doctor and Nicola Bryant as Peri is available at Amazon.com here.
This is a CD that was given as a subscriber bonus for those who had either a 6 or a 12 cd subscription to the main Big Finish line. Big Finish actually allows you to start a subscription at any episode so in theory you can still get this episode for free.
Because it is a freebie it is only a single cd episode.
Amazon doesn’t offer it directly only through resellers. Mike’s comics does offer it for $13. Sounds like a fair deal to me.
My Review of the Big Finish Doctor Who episode #68 Catch 1792, Staring Colin Baker as the 6th Doctor and Bonnie Langford as Mel is available at Amazon.com here.
This completed my collection of Colin Baker episodes in the main series. This doesn’t include the free episodes The Ratings War and Cryptobiosis.
I’ve found the Baker episodes to include both the best stories of the series. (The one doctor, The Condemned, The Marian Conspiracy) and some of the worst (The Apocalypse element, Whispers of Terror). It also features the greatest range of companions as well.
Next year after the departure of Charley we will see yet another companion but either way, the Colin Baker episodes certainly aren’t dull.
