Big Finish - UNIT new series
Big Finish – UNIT new series

I checked back earlier on to see when this was first announced, and it was back in Feb this year, so I’ve been waiting for this a long time. I expect that I’m not the only one by a long way.

I’m so glad that Big Finish have brought back UNIT and given it a new lease of life. I’m really looking forward to it and I have high expectations to say the least. I hope that they’re met.

Anyway, I’m off to buy it now. As always, I’ll let you know what I think of it.

It’s getting closer now, only 2 and a half weeks away now, and things are just about starting to come together, or at least it feels like that.

If you’re interested in attending or being a part of it in some way, then take a look at this page on the SoundLab web site.

After listening to Survivors series 3

Posted by on in Books and Audiobooks, ListeningLeave a comment

I have to say it was another good series. It moved the story on in a similar but slightly different direction to what’s gone before. I like that. If I have any complaints at all, and really, I don’t, it’s that I would’ve wanted something just a little more dramatic. It was good though.

I really like what Big Finish have done with it. Not just because I like the fact that Survivors is still going because of them, but because of the way they’ve put it together, keeping the feel of the original, and even some of the original cast, but expanding it and taking it in new and yet consistent directions.

I won’t give any spoilers though.

A little reminder, it’s Movember

Here we are, Movember is upon us, and stuff is growing! If you’re interested in seeing my Movember page it’s here, please do take a look. I plan to add a lot of stuff to it over the whole month of Movember, so you should always find something new there.

If you can support me with a donation I’d really appreciate it.

Science Museum: Ada Lovelace

I was quite surprised that it was actually quite a small exhibition for a character as important as Ada Lovelace. Even so, it was a nice little exhibition with some interesting facts. I’m sure they could’ve found more, I’m sure they could’ve got hold of more stuff about her, but anyway, I’m glad that they at least had an exhibition about her. That’s something.
