Big Finish – Master! Nemesis Express

A Big Finish Master! Piece!

The movie Master is back for more carnage as he once again encounters the Chronovores in a brand-new box set, due for release in October 2022 by Big Finish Productions.

Eric Roberts returns as the diabolical Time Lord in three full-cast audio dramas. Star Trek’s Chase Masterson also reprises the role of Vienna Salvatori — marking 10 years of the glamorous bounty hunter.

Joining the glittering cast is Teri Ann Bobb-Baxter (War of the Worlds, Bridgerton) as Passion, an alien thief with special abilities joining forces with Vienna. But the Master is always one step ahead…

Master! — Nemesis Express is now available to pre-order as a collector’s edition 3-disc CD box set (+ download for just £19.99) or download only (for just £16.99), exclusively from www.bigfinish.com.

Step aboard the Kairos, a recreational cruiser which traverses the Time Vortex itself.

Vienna Salvatori is on a mission, and must make her way up the serpentine vehicle, from the crime-ridden rear segments, through the enclosed compartments of the mega-rich, all the way to front of the ship to face the man who controls it all… the Master!!

The three suspenseful adventures are as follows:

• Nemesis Express by Robert Whitelock
• Capture the Chronovore! By Lizbeth Myles
• Passion By Robert Valentine

Producer David Richardson said: “I think, from the very first box set, we understood what this series should be about. At its core, this is the story of the Eric Roberts Master clawing his way back into our universe, with each box set taking place in clearly defined story worlds with a supporting ensemble of well-realised characters. It gives us a sense of being on a journey with this Master – and it’s a journey that Vienna Salvatori is keen to end…”

Director and Executive Producer Jason Haigh-Ellery, added: “I always have a great time working with Eric [Roberts]. He’s such a lovely bloke – but also the consummate professional and he always brings another option to a scene. Often, he has seen something on the page which others haven’t and this leads to one of the most unique interpretations of the Master.”
