Familiar friends and foes revisit the Seventh Doctor in the first of a two-box set series of full-cast audio dramas from Big Finish Productions
At the start of the Doctor Who TV Movie in 1996, the Seventh Doctor collected the Master’s mortal remains after he was executed by the Daleks on Skaro.
But what was the situation that led up to those events? Who sent the Doctor, of all people, on that mission? Now, it’s time to find out in a 12-part epic tale, The Seventh Doctor - The Last Day, which will be told over two box sets.
Doctor Who - The Seventh Doctor Adventures: The Last Day Parts One and Two are available to pre-order together in a bundle for just £41 (collector’s edition CD box set + download), or £35 (download only), exclusively from www.bigfinish.com.
There is always injustice to fight. There is always a new danger for the universe. But what if the Doctor found a way to put things right, once and for all? Would it really be so terrible to take a stand? Would the end justify the means? And would his friends agree? The Seventh Doctor’s last day is coming…
With the Seventh Doctor having had so many companions, friends and enemies across various media such as television, the New Adventures books, Doctor Who Magazine and Big Finish - to name but four - there were a plethora of potential characters to feature.
Joining Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor in The Last Day Part One are Sophie Aldred as Ace, Bonnie Langford as Melanie Bush, Lisa Bowerman as Professor Bernice Summerfield, Philip Olivier as Thomas Hector Schofield (aka Hex), Amy Pemberton as Sally Morgan, Maggie O’Neill as Lysandra Aristedes, Edward Peel as Kane, Geoffrey Beevers as the Master, Dan Starkey as the Sontarans, Richenda Carey as Mother, Chase Masterson as Vienna, and Stuart Milligan as Garundel.
Co-writer Matt Fitton said: “The setting of it all, without giving anything away, gave us the premise of The Last Day and allowed us to play with other versions of reality and universes. So, we’ve got a version of Ace who can interact with characters in a different way to how we’d normally expect her to. It brings alternative dynamics to them all.
“Each of the companions brings their own strengths, and there are varied reasons as to why the Doctor chose to travel with them. That all comes to the fore here when they become part of the team that’s assembled during the course of the story.”
Co-writer Guy Adams added: “Once we had decided this was going to be the big send off for the Seventh Doctor, the obvious thing to do was look at the cross-section if you cut through the trunk of the Seventh Doctor stories. We worked our way through all the best bits and tried to find what and who might be achievable, and who would add something to it as a character, because that’s always a consideration.
“It was quite easy to include a shopping list across two whole box sets, as this is, but I hope we were quite fastidious in our conversations to try and make sure that everyone has their space.”
Listeners can also purchase each box set of The Last Day separately. Part One is available now for just £19.99 (collector’s edition CD box set + download) or £16.99 (download only). Part Two, due for release in June 2024, is available to pre-order for £22.99 (collector’s edition CD box set + download) or £18.99 (download only).
All the above prices include the special pre-order discount and are subject to change after general release. - Zábava
If this is intended to do for the end of Sylvester McCoy's era what The Last Adventure did for the end of Colin Baker's, I'll be quite pleased. Because Sylvester certainly deserved better than what the TV Movie gave him. Thank you, Big Finish.
Hopefully this gives the 7th Doctor proper last words than “ARGHHHHH!!!” while going into Cardiac Arrest.
I'm sure that Big Finish in all its thoughtfulness will find a way.
“You’re needed! You mustn’t die, Doctor!”
I think it's high time we gave Beevers his own grand special. Dude's been the longest Master in stories so far, has faced the most multiple Doctors, he deserves some four-six hour long story.
I would love to hear him in a 10th Doctor and Donna Noble audio drama set between 'Midnight' and 'Turn Left'
Ooh Crispy! I love Geoffrey Beevers’ Master I might just fork out for this.
Cwej being in to different contradictory last day of the Seventh Doctor stories is so on brand for a guy who would go on to commit multiple temporal war crimes, murder of innocents and genocide as well as regenerating twice and have a whole army of biodata duplicates created from him.
Very happy for this release! 7 never got the exit he deserved.
Big Finish Please Continue the Novel Adaptation Range after Goth Opera!
You better hope it sells well then.
@@EditedAF987 I preordered It.
Oh, we have Hex again...
Yay he's turning into paul macgann and he is an amazing doctor!
Soo obviously by the title I'm assuming this is 7th last adventure before he goes to collect the remains of the master after he had faced his trial with the daleks?
I'd like to also hear Geoffrey Beevers or Jon Culshaw to do a Story that ends with the Master's capture by the Daleks dovetailling with the TV Movie's Prologue with his excution.
If it ends with him getting shot by the gangsters that would be wild
Your future is in safe hands
It's gonna end as he gets shot by the gangsters and the 8th doctor will say that 😂
So much for Longburrow.
Lungbarrow?
@matheusflores619 It was the last book in the New Virgin Adventures that ends with Romana instructing the Doctor to take The Master's remains back to Gallifrey.
Longburrow has been ignored since 2005 probably longer
@@alistairrae9807 Lungbarrow even longer🤣
@@gallifreyanknight1355 Yeah, it's LUngbarrow
Part 1 was amazing and now I'm very kuch looking forward to part 2.
This looks so cool
Okay, I'm sorry. Yet I saw more symbolism in the TV Movie than I've seen in recent years. No one seems to realize the TARDIS' perspective. Think about it. In the show, Ace apparently, "Fell out" because she realized what could happen to her life if she kept traveling. The TARDIS most likely warned her.
The TV Movie showed an example of cruel karma. I may be the only one who opposes this, and this is in no offense to Sylvester McCoy. But the phrase of "Madame Butterfly" and the quote from the first ever regeneration are linked. When Ben tries to fit that signet ring on Troughton's Doctor.
BEN: Now look, the Doctor always wore this. So if you're him, it should fit now, shouldn't it?
BEN: There. That settles it.
DOCTOR: I'd like to see a butterfly fit into a chrysalis case after it's spread its wings.
POLLY: Then you did change!
DOCTOR: Life depends on change and renewal.
DOCTOR: I've been renewed, have I? That's it. I've been renewed. It's part of the TARDIS. Without it, I couldn't survive.
I’d love something a big different and not just some big multi Doctor multi companion fest, delving into smaller unexplored gaps they can genuinely fill rather than stretch out doctors timelines and pretend they had all these extra companions. Get Dervla Kirwan back, do something set before the next Doctor, how did she team up with the cybermen, what happened to her.
Margaret Slitheen, what machinations led her to becoming Mayor, how did the Daleks install the Jagrafess, what were they up to lurking in the dark, hijacking satellite 5 for a hundred years. What were the first things the cult of skaro had to do when they found themselves stranded in 1920’s New York. What was Lady Cassandra like as a human, is there an emotional story of self loathing and body image there to tell about her transformations into a trampoline, I want stuff that fills all these curious gaps.
I was fully intending to disagree on principle, but by the time I got to the end of the comment I was 100% behind you and yes; I want to hear about all those things.
My favourite stories are the ones that bridge huge gaps like "victory of the doctor" like you say, but I'd definitely love to see those (smaller) more personal stories of side characters now too fleshed out
@@stevetayler9518 Why "on principle"? BF could use a change from all the fan service it's been doing for a whole, now.
Already preordered before I saw this, but a great trailer! Keep up the good work!
Wouldn't it be very cool if nobody no-one came back in this set?
For King and Country, as they say...
It would, but I'd hate to think that Evelyn died for nothing...
@@sabrinatirabassi3529 it could be a past version of nobody
The poster reminds me of Avengers Endgame.
This looks really good 👍 But does this mean that Lungbarrow isn't canon now 🤔
Well this is a very late but still welcomed trailer
Why 7th Doctor Big Finish Was Finally End?
Where's Tracey Childs? 👀
I hope that master isn't animated by AI...
Why?
A photoshop composite of the master by the cover artist, then using motion tracking software to copy a recording of me acting it out.
@@spluff5 coz people like to freak out when they find out something uses AI somewhere.
Hmm. It all feels just too drawn out. BF used to be exciting but I fear it is all fan-service now
definitely. and who the heck is that frog guy? they just make everything and anything. 6 and jackie tyler? cmon.
