I can’t remember anything about this week’s lockdownload from Big Finish: the audio company has been releasing free downloads throughout the Coronavirus pandemic. Ah, something’s coming back to me… Apparently, you can enjoy UNIT: Silenced – House of Silents – completely free!

Decades after their defeat by the Eleventh Doctor, the Silence prepare to rise against humanity…

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

Starring Jemma Redgrave and Ingrid Oliver, UNIT – The New Series was the first Big Finish range to use characters from the 21st Century relaunch of Doctor Who!

Listeners can download this story FREE from now until 23:59 (UK time) on 7th June 2020 at the Big Finish website. Here’s the blurb:

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? 

For a limited time, Big Finish listeners can also download any of the first three volumes of UNIT – The New Series for 33% off, at the Weekly Deals page.

Optionally, the bundle price of the complete UNIT – The New Series 1-4 will be available at its lowest ever download price of just £68 when all four volumes are bought together. All these download discounts will expire at 23:59 (UK time) on 7th June 2020.

Big Finish’s schedule of free lockdownload stories has been extended and new free adventures will continue to be released over the next three weeks!
