A welcome return for the Big Finish Classics range as we set sail on the Hispaniola with the man otherwise known as the Fourth Doctor, Tom Baker! He and adapter/director Barnaby Edwards discuss our new adaptation of the classic tale and relate their memories of previous versions.

DOCTOR WHO - THE COMPANION CHRONICLES

Showtune-loving aliens disguised as puppets - it can only be the latest weird and wacky adventure for Katy Manning's Jo Grant! We talk to our plucky heroine about voicing The Scorchies and composers Richard Fox and Lauren Yason tell us how they created the catchy numbers the felt fiends sing...

JAGO and LITEFOOT

The infernal investigators are back for a fifth series - and some gentle, good-natured ribbing! Stars Christopher Benjamin and Trevor Baxter talk about travelling in time, fighting fiends of the future and exactly what constitutes being an actor's actor.

THE BIG FINISH COMPANION
