  • Good info about Big Finish.

    Previews rather then reviews of Big Finish productions. The presenters can sound a bit smug.

  • I know its pretty much a long advert for bf but I do appreciate the behind the scenes content. Not everyone has the money to spend on all the products and sometimes feel this is sometimes trying to guilt people into buying everything lol. Also the price for any of their new catalog is way too expensive now for so many people, myself included. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.
