A new adventure for Sylvester McCoy as the Seventh Doctor,
alongside Bonnie Langford and Sophie Aldred as 1980s companions
Melanie Bush and Ace. Decades ago, the mysterious time-travelling
Doctor and his cheerful companion Mel became the toast of the
planet Prosper, when they brokered a peace between the native
Mogera and humans from the colony ship The Duke of Milan. But when
the TARDIS at last returns to Prosper, the Doctor, Mel and their
associate Ace find only a warzone. The burrowing Mogera have become
brutal monsters, dominated by their terrifying leader Caliban - and
it's all the Doctor's fault! Big Finish's main range of Doctor Who
stories began in 1999, and has featured television Doctors Peter
Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann across its
216 tales. Sylvester McCoy originally played the Doctor in 1987 -
1989, (then again in 1996) while his other work includes Radagast
the Brown in Peter Jackson's epic The Hobbit films and is currently
winning hearts in The Real Marigold Hotel. Companion Mel Bush is
played by Bonnie Langford - a popular actor of stage and screen,

the modern companions in the Doctor Who revival which returned to
screens from 2005. CAST: Sylvester McCoy (The Doctor), Bonnie
Langford (Mel), Sophie Aldred (Ace), Andrew Hall
(Alonso/Caliban/Gonzalo), Lucy Briggs-Owen (Miranda), Rachel Atkins

Peter Davison, Janet Fielding and Sarah Sutton reprise their roles
as The Doctor, Tegan and Nyssa, in a run of stories following on
from 1983's adventure The Arc of Infinity: "They say there'll be
thousands pouring into Manchester tomorrow. From all over the
county, north and south. It'll be a piece of history. People will
remember this!" Lost in the smog of the Industrial Revolution, the
TARDIS crashes four miles south of Manchester, in the grounds of
Hurley Hall - a grand mansion belonging to a local factory owner, a
proudly self-made man. But while Hurley dreams of growing richer
still on the wealth of secret knowledge locked up in the Doctor's
time and space machine, his servants hope only for a fair day's pay
for a fair day's work. His young maid Cathy, for instance, whom
Nyssa learns is looking forward to joining the working people's
march to St Peter's Field, in the heart of the city. There'll be
speeches and banners and music. It'll be like one big jamboree...Or
so she thinks. For the city's establishment have called in their
own private militia, to control the crowd.One of the darkest days
in Manchester's history is about to unfold - and the Doctor, Nyssa
and Tegan are right in the thick of it. Forever kept busy, Peter
Davison's most recently been seen on the London stage in the
critically acclaimed The Vertical Hour, and in the musical Gypsy
opposite Imelda Staunton. The Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan team first
met in 1981's Doctor Who adventure Logopolis, where Tegan and Nyssa
were on hand to help the Doctor (Tom Baker) regenerate into his
fifth incarnation (Peter Davison). One of Big Finish's last outings
with The Fifth Doctor, Tegan and Nyssa was in Doctor Who - The
Fifth Doctor Boxed Set, one story from which (Iterations of I) won
the Scribe Award at the 2015 San Diego Comic Con. CAST: Peter
Davison (The Doctor), Janet Fielding (Tegan), Sarah Sutton (Nyssa),
Hayley Jayne Standing (Cathy), Robbie Stevens (Hurley), Gerald
Kearns (William), Philip Labey (Thomas Tyler), Wayne Forester
(Walton/Roberts/Rev Small), Liz Morgan (Mrs Hurley/Sister).

With the TARDIS working perfectly, the Doctor and Peri decide to
take a holiday. But where? A long-forgotten piece of equipment in
the TARDIS storage locker sends them to the peaceful and idyllic
continent of Tranquela - home of the Doctor's old friend Ravlos.
But the land where they emerge is far from peaceful. A hate ray is
regularly sweeping Tranquela, turning its inhabitants into savage
beasts, and there is only one place it can originate - the planet's
other continent, home of Tranquela's old enemies, the Amelierans.
Or is that the only place? Because somewhere far above the planet

his own unscrupulous plans. CAST: Colin Baker (The Doctor), Nicola

This self contained four-story set is the latest Big Finish Blake's
7 release, accompanying two complete series of full-cast
adventures, and the award-winning range of Blake's 7 - Liberator
Chronicles volumes. The stories are set within the third BBC TV
series, as Paul Darrow's Avon begins to cement his place as the
leader of the anti-heroes on their stolen alien ship. Liberation by
Steve Lyons. In the aftermath of the Galactic War, everything has
changed for Blake's former associates. Having lost their leader,

And that may just get all of them killed. Outpost by Christopher
Cooper. Tarrant and Vila are on a mission to the abandoned outpost
Clivian 410B when a Federation taskforce attacks. The wary
crewmates must learn to work together if they stand any chance of
staying alive. Close Enough by Sophia McDougall. When the crew of

freedom of the galaxy - that hang in the balance, while Cally
regains something she thought she had lost forever. Solus by George
Mann. When the Liberator responds to a distress call from the Solus
research station, Avon is hoping to find something valuable he can
salvage. Instead, he finds only one survivor amongst the wreckage:
President Servalan. Blake's 7 proves to be one of Big Finish's most
popular ranges, with fans of the original late 1970s BBC1 series
enjoying many of the TV actors returning to their roles. Yasmin
