Doctor Who Humble Bundle · 8:26pm Dec 24th, 2014
Hi guys! Very important news: There is a Big Finish Doctor Who Humble Bundle up! These are full cast audio plays and you can get them for really cheap, which doesn't make me bitter as I paid a heck of a lot more for them a while back. OH WELL.

Seriously though. $15 for a ridiculous amount of Doctor Who. It is such good value you'd need to be insane to say no if you're vaguely interested.
Just to help tip you into buying, here is what they have:
Tier 1 - Pay what you want
Dalek Empire 1 & 2. This is a collection of two series of audio plays, 1 hour each and 8 in total. The Doctor isn't in them, these are the adventures of those roguish Daleks as they try to take over the universe and kill everyone. It is a lot of fun, though the first series is better than the second, I think.
Tier 2 - Pay the average
You also get Dalek Empire 3, which is 6 x 1 hour stories, featuring David Tennant (though this was made before he became the Doctor)
There is an additional locked content, which is rumoured to be the collection of three stageplay adaptions, where they got the original cast of official stageplays from the 60s, 70s and 80s to record them. I hope it is them as they are... interesting
Tier 3 - $15
The Lost Stories - 8 stories, 1 1/2 hours each
This is the best bit, I think. Back in the mid 80s, Dr Who was cancelled (put on 'hiatus') for a year, and everything they were going to make got scrapped. This is a collection of stories that were going to be made but weren't, or ones that were going to be made but passed over for other scripts.
Basically, they are a mixture of amazing (Point of Entry) and mind-bogglingly awful (The Hollows of Time). All of them written by tv professionals, and some of them scuppered only by circumstance. There are more good than bad though, and the bad ones (for my money Mission to Magnus and Hollows of Time) are SO awful they go right round into becoming good.
Meanwhile I am still D:, we will see what the new year brings
*starts trembling violently*
Well, I'm sold.
¡Thanks! ¡Now have an Humble Bundle of the Doctor!
If I buy these, what format are they in? Downloadable mp3? Or some awful DRMed format like Audible that I have to sit at my computer to listen to?
