Remember that Big Finish is GMT which is 5 hours ahead of EST, so when this post goes up at 8 a.m. EST it is 1 p.m GMT. You have till 7 p.m and not a second later to put in that order.
I never collected the Short trips books myself but i’m likely going to grab one or two just to try them out. At least a few have stories by Eddie Robson who is the best writer of Dr. Who audios that i’ve seen.
Might not be a bad idea for Christmas gifts next year for the Dr. Who fan, books store pretty easy.
Apparently Big Finish has for whatever reason lost it’s license to continue to sell their Doctor Who Hardcover Book Series called Short Trips. On the 1st of the year they are required to destroy their entire stock.
So as they don’t want to be stuck with their books they are selling what they have left at pretty hefty discounts. Even with Shipping to the US each volume they have left sells for $9.77 each. (the compilation volume double sized is $20.35). Of the 29 volumes 19,23,26,27 and 28 are sold out from Big Finish. No word on what the remaining stock is for the rest.
So if you want some nice original Doctor Who tales before they become recycled material, here is your chance to score some at a deal.
After the 1st of the year or if you want a volume they are out of there is always Mike’s comics.
Now excuse me while I go back to bed.
My review of the Big Finish Companion Chronicles 3.2 The Great Space Elevator staring Debra Wattling as Victoria Waterfield companion to the 2nd Doctor. is available at Amazon.com here.
A word of warning, it is unclear if this is set up for the right product on Amazon.com. I would suggest picking it up from Either Mike’s comics (best deal) or direct from Big finish
My review of the penultimate Tom Baker Doctor Who Episode: The Keeper of Traken is available at Amazon.com here.
The special features on this DVD are above avg for a Doctor Who DVD. The adventure is very much above par.
If you are not well versed in Dr. Who you might wonder about the scarf. Where are all the colors?
The last season he switched from a multi-colored scarf to a kind of three toned reddish one even longer than normal 18′-20′. Much darker in keeping with the entire tone of his last season.
