It's not due for release untill September later this year, but I can't wait! If, as the title seems to suggest, it involves stories from all 10 Doctors it will be well worth the money!

I'm not sure why a title that means "person who is over 100 years of age" suggests stories from all ten Doctors, and I don't think Big Finish's current license covers anything from the new series.

I quote from their website: Oh, and one we are not allowed to utilise any themes, storylines or characters created for the current run of the series with Ninth Doctor, Christopher Eccleston. Similarly, we stay away from any neat, but troublesome, "foreshadowing". Its in the FAQ. I would love to see as time goes by Big Finish doing stories with the Ninth and Tenth Doctor. |

I was being hopeful and both of you just had to ruin it   Fine I will admit it was a bit of a stretch trying to suggest 'centenarion' meant the involvement of all 10 Doctors. But still I am looking forward to it! |

Well turns out that Centenarion is centered around an 'average, everyday' kinda guy.
Personally I think they are running out of ideas for the anthologies... and at least 2 more are planned so far.

And those of us who care will know that this anthology has been delayed but should be released later this month...

"There is nothing special about Edward Grainger.
His life is much like any other - full of family and friends, love and passion, incidents and turning points. He travels, works, laughs and cries. He has parents, a wife, a child, a grandchild. He lives life to the full.
There is nothing special about Edward Grainger.
Except… from the day he was born, until the day he will die, he keeps meeting the Doctor. Sometimes a different Doctor, sometimes the same Doctor.
There is nothing special about Edward Grainger."

While the over-riding theme is entertaining enough this collection necessarily stands or falls on the strength of the individual stories. Fakking from Xi'an, Ancient Whispers and Checkpoint are the ones that stand out to me.

That's 'Falling', not 'Fakking', which would be a different thing altogether.
