No WAY.

Ok. So, I listened to the second Six/Jamie audio Wreck of the Titan last night and...well, I have things to say about it. But, more importantly, I am absolutely FREAKING OUT about Legacy of the Cybermen because HOLY CRAP.



ZOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

How did I not know they were bringing back ZOE?!?!?!?!

I am beside myself. BESIDE MYSELF WITH GLEEEEEE. Oh, man. Oh MAN. This is just...yeah. So awesome it hurts me. They better not screw this up or I will cry big, fat, salty tears of woe.

But, anyway. I love Six and Jamie together. Absolutely LOVE them. As I said before, I think City of Spires was incredibly great. Wreck of the Titan was a bit of a let down after such an amazing start. The biggest problem I had with this story was that Six and Jamie spent most of it apart. What the hell? Why would the writer waste so many beautiful opportunities for bonding to have them spend the majority of the audio with other people? Six had these gorgeous scenes on the iceberg with this totally random dude of the week. Why couldn't they have been with Jamie? Saving JAMIE from a polar bear. Convincing JAMIE to keep going. Who the hell cares about some random dude we're never going to see again? And to then have Jamie spend most of the audio with some annoying woman with yet another horrendous "American" accent?

UGH.

On the bright side, Alexander Siddig delivered yet another magnificent BF performance, and there wasn't anything in the audio that actively sucked. I thought it was a lot more of a squandered opportunity than anything else. And the opening scene was MAGICAL. Talk about Doctor/Jamie as text. The Doctor wants to take Jamie somewhere special. On a date. So he BLINDFOLDS HIM. And he's gonna pick out an outfit for him to wear that will look good with his kilt. I couldn't even believe what I was listening to. Their love really does transcend all time and space, doesn't it? ;-)

But after that opening, the rest was a bit of a letdown. Still. ZOE! Can't WAIT.

... zomg, I have to listen to this like yesterday. WHY OH WHY DO I HAVE THIS GODDAMN PROGRAM TO TYPESET. But oh, the Six/Jamie shippiness. I am so happy.

Have you listened to Night's Black Agents yet? JAMIE BEATS UP HIS GAOLER WITH A DEAD RAT. It is beautiful.

YES! I listened to it last night also. It was absolutely delicious. GOD, I love Jamie. And Frazer is really doing a fantastic job with these audios. Even after all these years, Jamie is still Jamie in all the ways that matter. LOVE.

*grins* Isn't it great that they've bringing Zoe back with Jamie?

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

SOOOOOOOOOO great. I'm too excited for words, dude. TOO EXCITED.

I do believe they're doing a Companion Chronicle together, as well - though I may just have dreamt that (or it may be wishful thinking!)

YOU LIVE TO TORMENT ME! ;-)

Well, I *am* an evil oppressor, so of course I love tormenting people! :D

They've certainly done something together where Frazer Hines did his Two voice, because at Invasion 2010 WP described watching FH in the recording booth. Apparently when he's doing the voice, he can't help doing all the gestures to match. And he likes to think that Patrick Troughton is in the booth with him.

FH also told of finding the script of The Prison in Space in his garage and Big Finish making it, so...

Confirmation.

Next up is another four-disc box set The Troughton Years, the centerpiece of which will be Prison in Space, performed by Frazer Hines and Wendy Padbury, with Susan Brown (Torchwood) guest starring as the villainous Chairman Babs. The adaptation is by Simon Guerrier, working from Dick Sharples’s original scripts that were written in 1968. It is scheduled for release in December 2010.

I am officially FREAKING OUT. Oh, man. I can't even DEAL with this level of awesome. And YES YES YES, I totally remember reading that about Pat in the booth before. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Ok. I'll try and be calm and patient but it's not easy.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

Whee!! I did so hope I wasn't making it up!

*flails*

I have to got to get my hands on this somehow. I will be turning this internet upside down for the next few days!

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

Support Big Finish! The downloads are super cheap. :-)

I definitely intend to when I can afford to do it, I just have zero spare money at the moment. I definitely want to give these people money for doing Six and Jamie things.
