Little play on words there; 'you nit', 'UNIT' - geddit? Oh well. So the first Big Finish release from me in a while - and it's quite a hefty box set. Should be an interesting and entertaining listen - I hope! Here are some details and an appetite whetting trailer:
Decades after their defeat by the Eleventh Doctor, the Silence prepare to rise against humanity....
House of Silents
There is no record of the presence of an alien species known as ‘The
Silents’ on Earth. UNIT has never engaged hostiles capable of editing
themselves from observers’ memories.
There is no evidence that such an opponent, if real, is regrouping and beginning a new plan of infiltration and manipulation.
Kate Stewart and her team are in no mortal danger. How can they be, when they don’t even know the enemy exists?
Square One
It’s business as usual at UNIT, and thankfully, Kate Stewart has no immediate threats to concern her. Or so she believes.
But when Sam Bishop returns from leave, he notices things aren’t quite
as they seem. Soon he and Osgood are on the trail of an elusive enemy.
Meanwhile, Kenneth LeBlanc and his controversial political movement
gather momentum, and one UNIT team member isn’t quite themselves...
Silent Majority
Kenneth LeBlanc looks set to lead his party to national victory,
overturning political opinion and taking the polls by storm. UNIT can
only stand and watch as a silent revolution takes place.
But who are LeBlanc’s real backers? And what use to them is the
triumph of a leader who seems to be nothing more than a liability?
The Silents are about to make the headlines.
In Memory Alone
When Sam Bishop and Osgood visit an orbiting space station for a
routine mission, they have no idea that they are part of an alien
scheme, years in the planning.
As the global situation spins out of control, Kate seeks help from an unlikely source.
The Silents are not done with humanity yet – and they will have their revenge.

Earlier today, I finished recording a series of audio stories which are scheduled to be released, starting early next year, which is now getting quite close! As usual, all a bit secret at the moment, but not long to wait for a proper update. Last week, I also had great fun doing some telly acting, which I haven't done for some time. It was quite a challenging part to play in some ways, but was nevertheless a very enjoyable project to work on and again, details will be revealed as soon as possible. And so, to sign off in time honoured fashion...
...all for now, more just as soon as it happens!
