I had to convince myself to get up and walk today, but I did! And I finished this story/set as well. For a two-part story, this one really packed in the plot and events! Another great story from a great series. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks #screamofthedaleks #daleks #lisamcmullin https://www.instagram.com/p/CljK4gSrPmh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ok, I didn’t walk yesterday. But I did today! This story starts off with a lot more action than London Orbital, and feels like a more traditional adventure…until it doesn’t. I like the thematic ties of British folklore tying the two stories together. And this is only 2 parts so I’ll finish it tomorrow! #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks #screamofthedaleks #daleks #lisamcmullin https://www.instagram.com/p/ClglNNzLEUN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy 59th anniversary, Doctor Who! I celebrated by reluctantly getting up and listening to the last part of this story while walking on the treadmill. Getting up was a bit of a struggle, but knowing I would finish this story if I did made it easier. It was totally worth it. Once again, I don’t want to spoil the story, but I’m happy this won’t be the last we see of Sullivan and Cross. Harry Sullivan is a particular favorite companion of mine, and @chrisnaylorartist brings him to life in a performance that very much evokes the spirit of the late Ian Marter, without sounding like a mimic. And next episode: Daleks! (That’s not a spoiler; they’re in the title.) #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #londonorbital #johndorney #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks https://www.instagram.com/p/ClTurWkrOQw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another great episode, as we get well and truly into the traditional third episode twists and reversals. And I’ve walked three days in a row this week, and I’m seeing a positive effect on my blood sugar. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #londonorbital #johndorney #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks https://www.instagram.com/p/ClRH4CgrLh7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I don’t know that I have too much to say about this episode that doesn’t involve spoilers, but I’m really getting a kick out of the team of Harry Sullivan and Naomi Cross. And I didn’t really feel like walking this morning, but I did anyway, partly for my physical and mental well-being, but mostly because I wanted to hear what happens next. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #londonorbital #johndorney #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks https://www.instagram.com/p/ClOisiYrXMV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

New work week, and I got up to walk. Today, I started a new seventh Doctor story featuring the return of former companions Harry Sullivan and Naomi Cross… but whereas we’ve seen Harry traveling with the Doctor and Sarah on TV, I think this is the first time we’ve seen these two together with any Doctor. It’s almost like a new companion introduction episode, with the focus very much on Harry and Naomi, until the Doctor shows up. It’s a great start to the story and it will hopefully motivate me to get up and walk every morning this week. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #seventhdoctoradventures #seventhdoctor #harrysullivan #naomicross #sullivanandcross #awol #londonorbital #johndorney #sylvestermccoy #christophernaylor #eleanorcrooks https://www.instagram.com/p/ClL_6o9Pare/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished the story and started the interviews. And walked for a third day in a row! Tomorrow starts a 3 day weekend so I probably won’t be walking until Sunday. And what a great story! It feels like it was written and recorded in 2021/22, and all the original actors have passed on and been recast. And yet it gives me the same feeling as watching a Doctor Who story from 1974. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #thirddoctoradventures #kaleidoscope #alanbarnes #timtreloar #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/CkvqY7krA2E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I slept pretty poorly last night, but still got up and walked! This episode was a lot of fun. In addition to the main story, Kaleidoscope and Jenny get their own brief adventure, complete with their own theme music! #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #thirddoctoradventures #kaleidoscope #alanbarnes #timtreloar #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/CktE4WHLhXN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I did it! Got up and walked for the first time in months. I was already halfway through Kaleidoscope, the latest third Doctor adventure from @bigfinishprod. It features the Brigadier, Sarah Jane Smith, and—I had forgotten—Harry Sullivan. It’s amazing how much these adventures evoke the feel of the 70s episodes without making fun of them. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #thirddoctoradventures #kaleidoscope #alanbarnes #timtreloar #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/CkqgpMdJUvw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I finished this last night! I thought I was having trouble keeping track of what happened episode to episode because I was listening late at night. After rereading the article in last month’s Vortex magazine, I see that was a very deliberate choice, and a good one for something as twisty as the Time War. And finally, the Kraals appear (as promised by the cover art). The “new” Romana was great as well; hopefully she’ll be in the second set of stories. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #doctorwhounbound #doctorwhodoctorofwar #doctorofwar #colinbaker #tombaker #nicolabryant #sadiemiller #christophernaylor #seancarlsen #johndorney #barnabykay https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccx0z33rrtV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I started listening to this Doctor Who Unbound story last night. Unbound is the @bigfinishprod version of Marvel’s What If concept, and the idea here is what if the sixth Doctor fought in the Time War. I feel like the Time War stories are at their best when they are totally weird & crazy, and this story grabs onto that tone with both hands and hangs on for the ride. Can’t wait to see where it goes next! #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #doctorwho #bigfinishdoctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #doctorwhounbound #doctorwhodoctorofwar #doctorofwar #colinbaker #tombaker #nicolabryant #sadiemiller #christophernaylor #seancarlsen #johndorney #barnabykay https://www.instagram.com/p/CcsyXQbL2ch/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I still have a bit of the behind the scenes stuff to go, but I finished the story and will finish everything else up today. That’s two days in a row I walked! And I hit my step goal yesterday as well! I don’t have a lot to say about this story, except that it was very well done and a lot of fun. Now I’m really looking forward to hearing Sarah and Harry in stories that give them more to do! #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #bigfinishdoctorwho #doctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #audiodrama #doctorholoststories #doctorwhoreturnofthecybermen #returnofthecybermen #cybermen #fourthdoctoradventures #tombaker #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/COafRyFphaK/?igshid=1hb52dtg8pjzo

After being sidelined by an injured ankle, I’m back on the treadmill today! I’m determined to walk all five work days this week. I’m well into the fourth & final episode of this story, so I’ll finish that up as well. Knowing that this was a script completely reworked for the television version, I don’t mind saying that this is a really good production of a mediocre story. However, it’s keeping me entertained while I walk, and if this is the vehicle for reintroducing a version of Sarah Jane Smith and Harry Sullivan that @bigfinishprod can feature in other stories, I’m ok with that. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #bigfinishdoctorwho #doctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #audiodrama #doctorholoststories #doctorwhoreturnofthecybermen #returnofthecybermen #cybermen #fourthdoctoradventures #tombaker #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/COX6OS7px_8/?igshid=1pp4cf2wfuzta

I listened to the first episode & a half of this story today. I need to get back to Shadow of the Daleks, but I was really in the mood for a classic adventure, hardening back to the era when I first started watching the show. This audio production really captures that feeling, right down to the almost aggressively Dudley Simpson-esque music score. And I really wanted to hear the recast Sarah Jane Smith and Harry Sullivan. For their first couple of lines, it was clear I wasn’t hearing the late Elisabeth Sladen or the late Ian Marter recreating their TV roles. But almost immediately, it was absolutely clear that I was listening to Sarah & Harry, even if this time they were being played by Sadie Miller and @chrisnaylorartist. #thismakesmehappy #bigfinishproductions #bigfinishdoctorwho #doctorwho #bbcdoctorwho #doctorwho_bbca #doctorwhoaudios #audiobook #audiobooks #audiodrama #doctorholoststories #doctorwhoreturnofthecybermen #returnofthecybermen #cybermen #fourthdoctoradventures #tombaker #sadiemiller #christophernaylor https://www.instagram.com/p/COLCYGQpnmm/?igshid=rbm0lr8x07bx
