Class: The Audio Adventures continues the world of Doctor Who’s teen spin-off, with two further volumes of audio afterlife. Focussed on the exploits of a group of Sixth-Formers at the Coal Hill Academy, plus a couple of alien refugees, the Patrick Ness helmed series created some compelling characters in an all-too-brief run on TV. While … >
Released the same time as Volume 1, Class Volume 2 is another set of three stories centred on the comings and goings at Coal Hill Academy. The good news is this set of stories is (at least) as good as the first! The bad news is Big Finish has yet to announce any more stories. … >
Making its debut via the online BBC Three, and with some shoddy treatment from BBC One schedulers, it is fair to say Class, 2016’s Doctor Who spin-off, struggled to find its audience. Set around the Coal Hill School, a location with enduring links with the parent show, Patrick Ness created a drama series aimed at … >

The formidably flirty Professor River Song has caught up with most of her husband’s faces. Since concluding her television adventures, she’s rattled though his regenerational back-catalogue in her own audio series. She’s also hooked up … >
Get ready for an epic Season 22 reunion, as the recipe for The Trials of a Time Lord now includes Davros and the Androgums.

Big Finish celebrates forty years of the Sixth Doctor, surrounding him with many of his companions. Remarkably, four decades have passed since we first met the bombastic Sixth Doctor. Initially self-righteous and quite unlikable, dressed in a technicolour nightmare, there was a plan to peel back his layers over time. Colin Baker arrived during a … >
The star reunites with his TARDIS crew for a series of “Technicolor” adventures, unburdened by series continuity.
