As it’s the Eighth of March and I haven’t got around to listening to any of Big Finish’s special releases for International Women’s Day, I thought I’d spend some time this weekend listening to a couple of stories from the sets.
Does anyone have any recommendations for good ones to listen to? Are any of the sets stronger than others?
I bought these sets last year on the 8th. Funny story actually, I tried to buy the CDs and it all went through and charged me but then they emailed to say they had ran out of stock, so they gave me digital copies for free!
I never got around to listening to it all, though, so can’t recommend anything at the moment. I’ll definitely be checking them out soon as the women of Who are all brilliant.
Interested to hear what others say!
I liked the first boxset they did, and the second one but the third one I thought was just a bit average. The highlight for me is definitely the River and Leela story, that one is a lot of fun. Also Rani!!! I can never turn down Rani, and her and Jo getting back together was wonderful. But it’s been a while since I listened to the other stories so I can’t remember them very well.
So yes, overall, EoM1, fun and I enjoyed it; EoM2, was also good; EoM3, I was hyped about the story Louise Jameson wrote but unfortunately I didn’t vibe with either of the stories on it quite as much
I’ll be completely honest and say that the first two sets didn’t interest me in the slightest, but ‘Strange Chemistry’ does.
The Missy and Amy story sounds really unique.
Bringing this thread back.
Recently listened to the first 2 stories, emancipation and big blue book.
They were good, emancipation was the better of the two.
It’s been a full year and I still haven’t listened to the Eighth of March box sets that I own 
I was waiting to hear more of Benny first.
I’ll definitely listen soon!!
In about a week would be the perfect time 
I’ve been sitting on this set for months.
Thought this was the best time to do them.
I was just recently thinking about how little i actually remember from the Missy and Amy story, and have been considering a relisten. No offense to the great peoples of the great nation of scotland- Ia just struggled with it a bit much XD though to be honest besides the fact i Enjoyed the leela-river story I don’t remember much of it either
I really enjoyed it
I had fun with it too! It was really cute hearing little Amy (Caitlin Blackwood) all grown up!
I might give a story from Eighth of March 2 a listen to tonight. Stolen Futures is my next one in order. Is it standalone or will I want to listen to the whole set (I have Dalek Empire 2 and Genesis of the Cybermen also on the starting blocks for this weekend).
