Actually, what Nicholas Briggs and David Richardson don't want you to know is that these are deleted scenes from Doom Coalition 3.2/3.3: "The Eighth Piece"/"The Doomsday Chronometer".

It's just missing Helen's reaction, actually:

I tell you this, Moll. I never cared for any man the way I care for you.

If anyone can save her, it's them ❤️

Reasons you should listen to Doom Coalition

You should listen to Doom Coalition (a 16-part audio series starring the Eighth Doctor), because...

This is Paul McGaunn at his best. Now, granted, "Paul McGaunn does great acting in these audios" is a statement that is true about many eighth Doctor audios, but it is also true for these ones and is a place to start!

Great companions! Liv Chenka is an experienced companion who is a medical professional (MedTech) from the future and Helen Sinclair is the new companion who is a historian and deeply closeted lesbian

River Song is in it!

Actually seriously this has the most moving Doctor/River moment I've ever found in any medium if you're a fan of Doctor/River stuff you should listen to this

and if you like River Song but don't like her romance stuff there is plenty she does that has nothing to do with Doctor/River as well

While the concept behind the main villain is basically a Time Lord with DID and that is... not great (@the-worms-in-your-bones went into detail as to why here and I figure I might as well link what it said instead of parroting its points), they do actually give the character a good deal of nuance and depth, and the acting is really good

The ACTUAL main villain who is not the Eleven and whose identity I will not disclose is one of those villains who is genuinely very terrifying for how realistic some of their villainy is

Lots of great stuff on Gallifrey! Let's see what the planet is like when Romana is off-world. It's a very different sort of look then we get from the Gallifrey series, but feels very tonally in-line with it.

The whole arc's villainous scheme is actually really interesting, especially why it is happening. I'm being vague bc spoilers

it has Veklin, Ollistra, the Meddling Monk, the Voord, and the Weeping Angels!

The whole story concludes fabulously while leading straight into the Ravenous series which is equally good

Good variety in story types. We have the big action stories, the crazy mysteries, and the bottle episode character pieces and they're all balanced really well

the Doctor gets a haircut

I want to know what Eight and River were getting up to when they thought Helen and Liv weren't looking just as much as I want to know what Helen and Liv were getting up to when they thought Eight and River weren't looking

[expectiations]

where's that "I just met [character name] but I would protect them with my life" meme cause I finally met Liv Chenka and Helen Sinclair and I would protect them with my life

Doom Coalition? More like "The Eighth Doctor and a trifecta of far more competent sapphics fight Doctor Who's version of James McAvoy from Split"

What order to listen to the 8th Doctor Big Finish Audio Drama

So I've seen lots of people asking what order to listen to the 8th Doctor audio dramas produced by Big Finish. There are some really good listening guides out there, but they're out of date.

So I present to you the 2024 8th Doctor Episode Chronology!

If you love the 8th Doctor or want to explore his stories but have no idea where to start, this is the list for you!

This is a living document. I haven't listened to everything yet, so some bits may need editing. It follows 8's personal timeline from his travels with Charley Pollard to his experiences in the Time War.

Comments are welcome and please share this link around :D

Here Is My Newest Big Piece of Artwork. Another 8th Doctor Steelbook Style Cover, This Time for Doom Coalition.

Doom Coalition is without a doubt my favourite Doctor Who Thing basically Ever. Liv and Helen, Eight, River, The Eleven, Time Lord Cults, Gallifrey & Weeping Angels, what’s not to love!

Doom Coalition individual covers

[expectiations]

another thing I love about doom coalition is that it leans fully into the nerdy side of River. she's not just this flirty consort of the Doctor y'know. which seems to be the only thing people point out about her.

You're being exiled to a deserted island. You may take one Big Finish title. What CD do you pick?

Fate worse than death time, eh? Ah well...

The first disk of Doom Coalition? Eight, Liv, Helen, the Eleven. Might just keep my sanity intact as I struggle to subsist.

[This is very cruel and unusual punishment. I object!]
