My trouble with audio polls is I just haven’t heard most of them. For example, I suppose on this poll, my favorite would be the Fearmonger by default, as it’s the only one on the list I’ve heard.

I mean, I did enjoy it, but have no basis of comparison with the others.

(Also, the poll is for favorite 2, not 3…)

Very few people seem to like the Rapture but I quite enjoyed it (and I hate clubbing!).

I honestly think McCoy had some of the weaker audio adventure until ‘Master’ came along, which started a new golden era for the Seventh Doctor with BigFinish (that lasted all the way up until the Hector trilogy).

Also, I’m a sucker for Joe Lidster scripts - he’s my favourite BigFinish writer.

Looking at this List, I just realized that I did all his Stories in the first 50, which leaves me a bit shocked I must say :sob:.
Anyway, as far as those goes:
The Genocide Machine is perfectly fine. It’s quite literal one of the most middling Stories I can think of for better and for worse.
Dust Breeding I really don’t remember too clear but I enjoyed it when I listened to it.
I actually relistened to Colditz recently and should probably visit that Thread of it again to give my updated Opinion. I like it more, but it’s still far away from being an all-time great.
The Rapture is a tricky one, I like it, but I have plenty of Issues with it.
Project Lazarus is so much better than its previous Entry in the Project Series but by no means a favorite.
Flp-Flop has a nice Gimmick but the Story itself leaves me very cold.
There is also of course the Shadow of Scourge, which I really liked!
Oh and Bang-bang a boom which was so close to being voted for me. I really enjoyed this campy EuroVision Outing.
But my Votes has to go to the incredible Fearmonger, the wonderful historical Fires of Vulcan and Master! All brilliant ones! All use the TV 7th Doctor Teams so well, from Ace/7 to Mel/7 and to 7 Solo, with a remarkable Geoffrey Beevers in the Role. What can I say about those what I haven’t said already? Just incredible ones!
