November 23rd 1963 proves to be a significant day in the lives of all eight Doctors…
It’s the day that Bob Dovie’s life is ripped apart…
It’s also a day that sets in motion a catastrophic chain of events which forces the first eight incarnations of the Doctor to fight for their very existence. As a mysterious, insidious chaos unfolds within the TARDIS, the barriers of time break apart… From suburban England through war-torn alien landscapes and into a deadly, artificial dimension, all these Doctors and their companions must struggle against the power of an unfathomable, alien technology.
From the very beginning, it is clear that the Master is somehow involved. By the end, for the Doctors, there may only be darkness.
This is a five-disc limited Special Edition in deluxe premium packaging, which includes a stunning array of professional photos of the cast.

October 25th, 2013 - 5:19pmBIG FINISH have started sending this out early. If you have purchased it (I got the CD Special edition) you can download it now. It’s really rather good too – Definately no ZAGREUS
.
Apologies if I posted to the wrong section

September 23rd, 2013 - 10:11amLooking at the cover of this closley and to be honest, I find it very very poor.
The inamge had CGI renders which are okay, buit my main complaint is that proper headshots have been photoshopped onto these bodies giving them a wierd look.
Colin Baker doesn’t fare much better.
The McGann Doctor comes off especially badly where the head shot is all out of porportion and at the wrong angle making this a very poor example of what can be done with modern day techniques.

September 20th, 2013 - 6:18amWhy is BF not listed as the main supplier? Seems strange not to.

September 16th, 2013 - 7:42pmJust out of interest – is the case like a DVD, as that’s how it looks?
Johnny
September 17th, 2013 - 10:06amYes.

September 16th, 2013 - 10:56amI’ve pre-ordered this (the limited edition version) and I really don’t like the cover image! I mean, it’s a nice novelty image, but I prefer and wish that they had used the standard edition cover. Sorry Big Finish.

September 15th, 2013 - 4:28pmLiterally considering buying this on the release I have £24 left from yesterdays birthday shopping!
Start saving and it will be worth the wait!!!! 🙂

September 15th, 2013 - 12:08pmWow…. This looks amazing. Especially as the collector edition looks like a DVD box too, oh my I must have this…
Fezmeister
September 14th, 2013 - 9:40pmI ordered this a while back. It looks great.

September 14th, 2013 - 8:24pmDoes anyone think this version will be available to buy from the 50th anniversary convention at Excel in November? I know there is no way of knowing 100%, but at a guess what would you say?
seanwray1
September 14th, 2013 - 8:28pmI was wondering the same thing :/ everything at the convention will be exclusive and limited to the shop on site
drjakeyoung
September 14th, 2013 - 8:31pmIn that case, buying everything i want there is going to murder my wallet :/
seanwray1
September 14th, 2013 - 8:32pmI know the feeling 🙁 what day are you going?
drjakeyoung
September 14th, 2013 - 8:37pmSaturday! Thought i wasn’t going at all as by the time i went onto the site (half an our after they went on sale) they were completely out! But after a few annoying emails i managed to get a couple of tickets 🙂
seanwray1
September 15th, 2013 - 6:47amWell done mate 🙂 I barely got a Sunday ticket and I was on the sight an hour before they went live! I’ve ordered the t-shirt with the tickets too but I’m annoyed that we don’t know what it looks like
drjakeyoung
September 15th, 2013 - 1:40pmI know the feeling. Was hoping to get a Matt smith photograph, but they had ran out straight away. Did you know Graeme Norton will be there?
seanwray1
September 15th, 2013 - 2:03pmHopefully well still get autographs from the other actors and yeah I heard, he’s doing a radio broadcast 🙂
drjakeyoung
September 15th, 2013 - 2:44pmHopefully yea! I emailed them and asked how people are supposed to get the autographs, and they said that you get them on the day, rather than pre booking them. Wow, i wand all the doctors and companions autographs, this is going to cost a lot! (as well as the hotel and lots of items i am going to buy there)Hope i have enough, as i have been saving up since March and should have about £300 by the time i go! Hope you have a good time and get everything you want!
seanwray1
September 16th, 2013 - 6:49pmThanks for letting me know about that, I’m happy to hear well get autographs now. And you have a great time to 🙂

Son of Skaro
September 14th, 2013 - 7:26pmI’ve ordered both the vinyl and the collectors edition. Can’t wait for Them!
doctorwhomad
September 13th, 2013 - 4:17pmHow many of these are? 🙂
videogamemad00
September 13th, 2013 - 8:45pmWhat do you mean? It’s a one off special but there are 3 versions of it (standard, collectors and vinyl)
doctorwhomad
September 14th, 2013 - 7:22pmNo, I mean, it says it’s a limited collectors edition. I was wondering what the limited edition number size is.
videogamemad00
September 14th, 2013 - 7:30pmOh right 😳 I can’t help you there, sorry.
doctorwhomad
September 14th, 2013 - 7:37pmThat’s okay. Thanks. 🙂

September 12th, 2013 - 4:05pmIs this the official cover or just a promo image they used? http://www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/the-light-at-the-end-limited-collector-s-edition-860
Some bloke
January 27th, 2013 - 3:26pmpre-ordered it!!! 🙂
Lachlan
January 26th, 2013 - 10:57amWill the CD’s have different covers depending on the Edition?
booboo
January 26th, 2013 - 11:23amdont know yet
Son of Skaro
September 14th, 2013 - 7:54pmIf I had to hazard a guess, I’d say the standard would come in a normal case with the same artwork, Just not lenticular.

January 11th, 2013 - 8:45amPinch me and pinch me NOW! This is every fans dream, oh let it be good and the thought that Tom, yes Tom, will play alongside the other Doctors! If theres any justice they’ll have a massive photo-shoot as well. The sadness is that though they’ll be there in spirit, not to have Bill, Pat, Jon, Jacquie, Lis, Carrie, Mary, Ian and Nick there will be the downer.
Professor When
January 10th, 2013 - 7:36amI know they have this ‘Destiny of the Doctors’ thing, but surely they could have a CD where all 11 doctors meet up, instead of just the 8? 🙂
Some bloke
January 10th, 2013 - 9:17ambig finish only have license over the first 8 doctors, and this production isn’t being made with bbc, just big finish
Professor When
January 13th, 2013 - 10:15amAhh, I see 🙂
Cyber lords
September 15th, 2013 - 9:17amAnd 9 probably wouldn’t want to appear anyway
drjakeyoung
January 9th, 2013 - 10:44pmi will get this for Christmas later this year, god, already thinking about next Christmas!
The TARDIS
January 9th, 2013 - 8:52pmThis sounds amazing, definitely getting this rather than the standard release! Although it could be a 3 disc adventure, couldn’t it? It’s just the same length as a normal Big Finish release… Anyway, getting it regardless!
Cyberking281
January 9th, 2013 - 4:36pmThis sounds AWESOME!, but is it a bonus story from the “destiny of the doctor” series?
Some bloke
January 9th, 2013 - 5:04pmNo, its a story of its own, made by just big finish, not big finish and the bbc
Jelly Baby
January 22nd, 2013 - 9:33amDestiny of the Doctor is a collaboration between Big Finish and AUDIOGO not the BBC. The BBC have yet to announce their plans for the 50th anniversary
Some bloke
January 27th, 2013 - 3:35pmok, i just meant the bbc because audiogo publish the audios under the BBC audiobooks brand.
Some bloke
January 9th, 2013 - 4:13pmTHIS SOUNDS AMAZING. THE SECOND I GET THIS I AM LISTENING TO IT!!! EEEK
