Would anyone like to see a Jackson Lake series done by Big Finish? There could be adventures set while he was “the Doctor” or even after, doing good deeds in his name. Could crossover with the Paternoster Gang.

I’d love that. Surprised it has yet to happen.

Maybe it’s down to David Morrisey’s availability. From what he said on a panel at a convention I saw him at, he’d love to come back.

Its one of those things Id like to see. But iirc Nick Briggs said in either an issue of Vortex or the Big Finish Podcast they had no interest in the idea unfortunately.

Jackson Lake with Dugga Doo as his companion!

I enjoyed the episode but not really interested in a spin-off.

It would be quite difficult to do because Jackson Lake doesn’t actually have any great skills or alien technology, he only thinks he is the Doctor. So he couldn’t face Daleks or anything like that 
Unless it’s a bit of a comedy farce where he saves the day by mistake or because he knows how to be the Doctor.
You mentioned the Paternoster Gang, not sure about the timeline here (exactly when they are vs Jackson) but it could be fun for them to actually believe he is a new incarnation of the Doctor, and go along with him for some adventures.
But I don’t know, it’s probably not a set I’d rush into as it wasn’t my favourite episode.

Nah,
I just don’t think it would work - got all the miles you could with his 10th doctor special

Yeah, I remember thinking about it before and, assuming Jackson Lake was 44 - the age David Morrisey was in 2008 - in 1851, then in the 1890s, when the Paternoster Gang were about, he’s be in his 80s. Maybe it could just be a one-off story in a Paternoster Gang set.

I’d absolutely be down, I love the expanded victorian era of Doctor Who (between J&L, Pateernoster, TW Victoria, etc)
Also fun little thing, in the Torchwood D&D game I run for a friend of mine, I had it that after The Next Doctor Lake ended up with Mercy’s money, and set up a tailor’s named Hartigan’s, that employs aliens with nowhere else to go!

I think a cameo in Paternoster would be fab tbh!!

Also, note to self:
I don’t need to do a victorian who timeline, I don’t need to do a victorian who timeline, I don’t need to do a victorian who timeline, I don’t need to do a victorian who timeline

Looks at his spreadsheet where he’s already sort of done a Victorian timeline (although nothing released in the last few years; and it’s 19th century so covers a bit before Victoria; and it includes Sherlock Holmes because I was a bit mad):

Not gonna lie I forget he exists 
But maybe a spin off could be cool, as long as he gets to meet Jackie Tyler somehow

I agree. If a character doesn’t seem worth their own entire boxset/spin-off, just pop them into a pre-existing range or a special one-off. I’m sure people would be interested if suddenly a Paternoster box popped up that featured Jackson Lake. It’s the sort of thing BF was made for, in my opinion.
