That is a pretty poor t-shirt, particularly when you consider that you pay an additional ÂŁ25 just for that.

According to Nicholas Briggs on the latest Big Finish Podcast, they have no plans to release a video version of Stuff of Legend in the near future. It wasn’t a definite no, just a confirmation that it’s not anything we should be expecting in the foreseeable future.

Despite my rant about making us buy this twice, I have relented and pre-ordered the live version. The original was fun, but it’s not the same as hearing the actors playing up to the audience.

Might just put the live version on my Christmas list or wait to see if I get any money/vouchers and spend those on it.

Hard for me to focus on what they’re saying because I’m distracted by how handsome McGann is :star_struck:

So sadly there isn’t a magic wand to turn back time and get magically to England to being able to see it (like I said a while back in this thread) but…
I finally came around to listening to it and considering we don’t have a Story Discussion Thread for the Story itself, this might just be the best alternative, so let me just share some of my Thoughts about it:
I had my Fun with the Story even if I just listened to the Studio Version. Yes, this Story is very much a more “Standard”-affair for Doctor Who, but nothing wrong with it. I would imagine if I was able to go to the Event, I probably would enjoy it a bit more, but as it is, it’s a pretty fun Story.

As a big Fan of the Companion Chronicles, it was quite fun listening to the Narration bits here, which I thought were all well done and enjoyable. Similarly, if not more fun is the Chemistry between 8 and Charley, who are a personally favorite TARDIS Team of mine, so no surprise there. But the real Scene Stealer here was easily Alex MacQueen as the Master, he played the Part as brilliantly as ever! Wish we can get more of his Incarnation, as nice as it is having plenty of the revived Show Masters on Audio, he deserves more Stories!!

The Daleks were probably the Part, which worked for me the least. At times with this Version at least seemed a bit like Briggs is emulating the 60s Voice before switching to a more typical Dalek Voice of his, at least it came across to me. Love the Inclusion of the Robo-men. Oh and they referenced the Smugglers, which makes it a 10/10 of course!!!/hj

Still it was fun, so really I can’t complain and really the whole Idea about doing a Live Perfomance is just lovely, here is hope one day the Footage will be released somewhere :crossed_fingers: (Yes I know it won’t happen, but let me be delusional!)

What?! I thought the Germans invented time travel??

Or is that ‘will invent’? The 21st century is such a mess of events…

But well said about the story! It’s a fun story that would have been even better live!
