Starting today (Monday 9th November 2020), a new series of weekly full-cast audio dramas will begin, all completely free to download from Big Finish Productions, as part of the company’s #lockdownloads project!

During the UK-wide lockdown earlier this year as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, Big Finish began a series of weekly free downloadable audio dramas – or #lockdownloads. Now they’re back, for a limited time.  

Every Monday, a new story (or episode from a box set collection) will be available to download exclusively from Big Finish’s Weekly Deals page. Each story will be available for one week only, and comes accompanied by a special discount offer on related titles.  

This week’s free title is Dalek Empire: Invasion of the Daleks, by Nicholas Briggs. Here’s the blurb:

The Daleks are conquering our galaxy. Nothing can stop them. And the Doctor is absent. Step forward a brave and resourceful group of humans to battle the scourge of the galaxy.

Previously only available as individual stories, the complete Dalek Empire collection has now been reissued as two digital box sets; Volume 1 contains Series 1-2 and Volume 2 contains Series 3-4.  

Dalek Empire also features some very familiar names among its cast, including David Tennant, William Gaunt, Gareth Thomas, Noel Clarke, and Maureen O’Brien.  

For one week only, Big Finish listeners can get each volume for the specially discounted price of £17.99. That’s 20% off the RRP.  

All these download discounts will expire at 23:59 (UK time) on 15th November 2020.
