Now they've got him (he did a Lost Stories tale too) I really hope they get him to do Omega at some point. No offence to the late Ian Collier, but Stephen Thorne IS Omega!

Indeed.
Well it's the 50th Anniversary year, perhaps he figures in their multi-Doctor story?

I find Jeremy Clarkson to be a loathsome human being and Richard Hammond is a talentless hack with the screen presence of a drunken blueberry and the verbal panache of a loafing sloth.

After an evening spent wrestling with Excel and some VBA code I've finally fixed the tags on all my DW audios so they'll play in th right order on the iPad.
In the end I ended up changing the Album tag for each episode to give each episode it's own Album name (Tenth Planet 1, Tenth Planet 2 etc)

I'd second that, bought it last time it was on sale and it is a cracking set of stories.
I have started listening to "The First Sontarans" this evening - cracking first episode which definitely feels like it belongs in the gap between "Revelation of the Daleks" and "Trial" as far as the Doctor/Peri relationship goes. Cracking little mystery setup in the first episode as to what on earth is actually going on as well. Think this is going to be a good'un.

Yes, thoroughly enjoyed Dark Eyes as well.
McGann is a tremendous Doctor.

Yep, I will be ordering Dark Eyes 2 like a shot.
The First Sontarans is cracking stuff. It builds and builds and builds to a fabulous climax.

Episode Two is cued up for this evenings listening once I get into the wind-down part of the evening. Looking forward to it - the cliffhanger to Part One was absolutely great and I'm looking forward to finding out where it goes from there.

Half-way through series 5 of the fabulous Jago & Litefoot spin-off series. Marvelous as always with a good twist in the format. Very happy to hear it's continuing until series 8 now. Yes!!!

Loads of BBC Whodios have turned up in the Edinburger The Works.
Target audiobooks of: The Sensorites, The Aztecs, The Twin Dilemma, The Androids of Tara (the newer novelisation version), The Myth Makers, And the Doomsday Weapon (Colony in Space), And the Space War (Frontier in Space), Paradise Towers, Ghost Light, Fury from the Deep, Earthshock, Black Orchid, The Sea Devils. Picked up all bar the last as already have a download copy. Surprised to see more recent releases from 2012 there.
Also had the TV soundtrack release of The Mind Of Evil, 10th Doctor audio Prisoner of the Daleks and several 11th Doctor stories. Lass at the till said they had 'TARDIS' shaped box sets in. I lacked time to search for it! She also mentioned that they were just getting in one delivery of the Doctor Who audios. Hence why I red hazed!
Will pop back in tomorrow for a more thorough search!
£3.99 each or three for a tenner.
MP3 ripping later!

Last time I looked in The Works there was nothing. Sounds like I need to go hunting!
I recommend Myth Makers above all else, it's an excellent reading.

Popping back this afternoon to see if I missed anything.
The Sensorites audiobook is tops. William Russell could read my shopping list and I'd be entertained.

'And the Cave Monsters' (Silurians) also obtained! As well as a bloody big cardboard TARDIS with six 11th Doc audio only stories in it.
Much of what was there yesterday had already been cleaned out!

Another check this evening. Much of the stock has gone. The one no bugger seems to want is The Sea Devils. Don't seem to have shifted a single copy of that! Shame. I bought the download of that last year and it is tops.

Can you bring them down on a data stick for me?

My data stick is old and does not have enough memory for these (4-6 cd's each). I will have to borrow a bigger one from elsewhere in the team.

The Aztecs audiobook was fantastic. Gripping stuff, just as good as the telly serial. By contrast, I am finding The Myth Makers very hard going so far. The text is trying far too hard to be funny and Omega's reading is rather one note and overbearing. I don't think Thorne is a good match for the material.
