Look at these (incredibly grainy) friends.

OMG, (MOST OF) MY PRECIOUS BABIES IN ONE PICTURE <3
Padders, you are adorable and tiny just like you were back then.
I ADORED this Companion Chronicle SO MUCH. Best $8.50 I’ve spent on one of these. If you haven’t listened to a Jamie CC yet, buy this one. It’s fun and enticing, plus Anneke Wills co-stars is in this one as Polly! (Not to mention Frazier pulls off a great Ben and Two!)
Frazier Hines is a perfect human being and now becoming one of my utmost favorite Who actors EVER. Can’t wait for The Jigsaw War in less than 2 months!

Oh, how I loved this Companion Chronicle!
It’s a good ol’ fashioned historical serial involving Two, Zoe and Jamie trying to put history back on track after Jamie fiddles around with King James II’s decision to flee England. Not only does it involve Jamie being a badass with a pike while trying to save the Doctor and Zoe from being hanged, but this audio brings up the familiar question about the Doctor’s interference in history during his travels and how it affects his companions. Especially a companion who has been plucked out his own personal timeline and has the opportunity to change it for a greater purpose.
The secondary plot about a CIA agent meeting Jamie as an old man was actually quite heartbreaking, especially when Jamie is offered a chance to keep his newly resurfaced memories of his travels with the Doctor. It’s an ending that really took me by surprise, which got me a little choked up but nonetheless, it’s a satisfying ending to Jamie’s history with the series.
Frazier Hines, how I adore you in the Companion Chronicles. <3
Needed more Jamie and Two stuff on my dash since I feel so terrible today.
Well, after finally getting my hands on The Wreck of the Titan, I have finally finished listening to the Six/Jamie trilogy from Big Finish.
TO ANY TWO/JAMIE/FRAZIER HINES FANS/ALL OF THE ABOVE:
BUY THIS.
Frazier Hines is so awesome is this 3 part story (4, if you count the linking Companion Chronicle Night’s Black Agents). The relationship with Colin Baker’s Doctor is uncanny like stepping back in time (no pun intended) to Patrick Troughton’s era, not to mention when Six and Jamie both meet up with Zoe in Legend of the Cybermen. <3
The interviews/CD extras are also well done. Lots of love for all of the actors. <3
The audio where Jamie keeps bumping into things and gets nervous around fairies, Wendy Padbury is still adorable as Zoe, and the Sixth Doctor gets turned into the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland for 5 minutes.
Oh, and did I mention this audio could be considered a sequel to The Mind Robber?
WIMSYYYYYYYY.~
(However, the story will make a lot more sense if you listen to City of Spires and The Wreck of the Titan since they are part of a trilogy.)
Unfortunately, I don’t have The Wreck of the Titan…but I could still keep up with the plot, thanks to the glory of exposition and recaps this show seems to do a lot. >.>
And the interviews with Colin and Wendy are adorbs (apparently, Wendy was Colin’s agent for a long time and helped him get into Doctor Who!). <3
