What was that the Doctor gave to him at the end of the movie, though?

He let Lee keep the bags of gold dust the Master gave him earlier as a bribe.

And do check out the Eighth Doctor audios. They really show what a great Doctor Paul McGann is. :)

Aaah. See, on the screen I was using, they just looked like a vague reddish blob, so I was at a loss. Thanks for clearing that up.

Any reccomendations for audios I should start with? Because I've tried poking around Wikipedia to see where I should start and...I have to say, I'm a touch overwhelmed.

Storm Warning is the first overall, which introduces Charley - it's best to start there, not just because it's the beginning, but because the whole thing eventually leads into an arc, and by the time you hit Zagreus things get really convoluted...

If you prefer you can alternatively start with the Eighth Doctor/Lucie run and Blood of the Daleks, as the two series are completely separate. The second season of these has just started being released, and they are a lot less involved than the Eighth Doc/Charley stories.

There's also Shada, which is a complete standalone, being a remake of the abandoned Douglas Adams script from season nineteen.

I've been trying to find a complete rundown of all the titles, but there doesn't seem to be one since Big Finish changed their website. *scratches head and frowns*

*makes notes* I think I might start with Shada, just so I can start getting used to the audio format and everything first. (I'm not overly familiar with radio plays, my sole exposure being the Garrison Keillor stuff that used to play on NPR - and I haven't heard one of those in years.)

And peeks into Eight's wiki have shown me how complicated his storyline gets, but I have also heard wonderful things about Charley, so perhaps Storm Warning will be next.

Thank you! I'm grateful for all the help. :)

You're welcome! I'm a long-standing Eighth Doctor fan - came into Who fandom with the TVM back in 1996. :)
