Hi Folks, If you have any questions about The Zygon Who Fell To Earth, feel free to pose them here. Thanks! Barnaby x

Are we likely to see a third installment in the "Auntie Pat Saga" in Season 3? If so it might be ever so slightly traumatic for the Doctor and Lucie.

As the man who pushed hard to bring back Aunty Pat, I'm heartened to hear you'd like another installment. It's early days yet, so we'll have to wait and see.

Another vote for more Aunty Pat from me -- provided Paul Magrs writes the story, of course.

I liked Horror of Glam Rock and loved the Zygon that Fell To Earth so consider me interested to see this particular storyline continued. It's sufficiently different from Rose/Martha/Donna's family antics in the main TV show and a heckuvalot more interesting.

^ I never thought of it like that. It would certainly be an interesting spin on the story if the Doctor does take Lucie home one day.

I listened to this this evening and, I have to say, it's probably my favourite so far, if only for one particularly well crafted line that had me laughing like a drain.
Nice to hear Tim Brooke-Taylor completing the Goodies collection, too.

Just listened to this one. Really didn't like it at all. It's Big Finish at it's most gratingly twee, most dated, and least funny. If Big Finish has one common flaw, it's falling back time and time again on the isn't-it-funny-if-aliens-talk-about-pop-music/cups-of-tea-in-a-posh/regional-accent idea. No. It's not.
Sticking the one usually genuinely funny character in a Zygon prison for much of the story didn't help either. It plays like a story written by a fan, on a fan-ficton site, just for fans. For someone dipping in and out of the range like meself though, there's nothing here that'll ever warrant a relisten.

Now it's time to get all three in the same audio play, possibly as the Gods of Ragnorak? Or should that be the Goodies of Ragnorak? Appalling I know but I couldn't resist...................

Or... Well, with some inexpensive parts from your local craft shop and a drill, Paul Magrs can also be used as an excellent, if horrific, clock.
