I love Dalek Empire as much as the next guy. It’s a really great look at the Daleks without the Doctor there to fight them. But especially with the recent passing of Christopher Benjamin, I’d be very remiss to not praise the utterly delightful Jago & Litefoot and call that the best option. Not to mention with the upcoming regime coming to us here in the states, I’d much rather some spooky Victoriana escapism than a war epic.
Dalek Empire has won the original poll for out next Audio Club Extra adventure but the recent passing of Christopher Benjamin has prompted the suggestion of bumping Jago and Litefoot into first place.
So a second poll just to gauge interest in this. If we do J&L Series 1, it seems wise to begin with The Mahogany Murderers, the Companion Chronicle that launched a behemoth of a spin-off.
If we do choose to do J&L first we will definitely do Dalek Empire afterwards.
I think I’d be fine with either of those, but voted for J&L because it gives me an excuse to finally get around to the Companion Chronicle (and hopefully) finish that Range this year
Nothing against Christopher Benjamin (bless his soul), but I’m not particularly excited about Jago & Litefoot. I could end up being wrong, of course, and I will listen to it if it wins the poll.
Jago & Litefoot is kind of a sleeper series imo. It’s not something you come into expecting to love but the characters are so delightful and the stories are so much fun that you can’t help but absolutely fall in love with the series.
