The best place to find the free titles available at Big Finish (in addition to the above-mentioned Soundcloud page) is:

https://www.bigfinish.com/ranges/v/b...ish---for-free

Some of these are 1 part of a larger multi-part story, so they don't tell a complete tale. Others are complete.

Big Finish has an app (Android, Fire, iOS) that gives you access to all of your purchases for easy playback. I saw this in a newsletter and tried it out. I'll be putting it on all of my devices.

Doctor Who: Flip Flop

Christmas Eve in the year 3060, and the planet Puxatornee is home to a prosperous human colony. A space craft has arrived in orbit carrying the Slithergees, a race of obsequious alien slugs. Their home world has been destroyed and they are humbly requesting permission to settle on the first moon. And if they don't get permission, then they are humbly threatening to declare all-out war. The future hangs in the balance. The decision rests with Bailey, the colony' s president - but she has other things on her mind.

Christmas Eve in the year 3090, and the planet Puxatornee has changed beyond all recognition. The Doctor and Mel arrive, on a completely unrelated mission to defeat a race of terrible monsters, and soon discover that something rather confusing has been happening to history.

Flip-Flop is a unique innovation in storytelling. A Doctor Who adventure told over two CDs, one black, one white - where the CDs can be listened to in either order.

The Invisible Man (excerpt)

This excerpt comes from the January 2017 Big Finish release, The Invisible Man

In the midst of a snowstorm, a stranger arrives in an English country inn, seeking solitude. Soon, inexplicable goings-on at the Coach and Horses bring fear to the village.

Two very different men – the scholarly Dr Kemp and gentleman-of-the-road Thomas Marvel – are drawn into terrible events beyond their understanding.

A man named Griffin has defied the laws of nature, and is about to embark on a reign of terror. For he is... The Invisible Man.
Quote:
Dr Who: Star Men (part 1)

(This episode opens the January 2017 release Doctor Who - The Star Men and is offered here as an exclusive to anyone who has subscribed to the Big Finish newsletter, with a code presented in each January newsletter)

Astronomical navigation is a tricky business. To help Adric with his studies, the Doctor sets course for Gallius Ultima – a planet on the edge of the Milky Way, housing one of the most impressive observatories ever constructed.

But the TARDIS arrives to find Gallius U in a state of emergency, tracking the return of the Explorer-class ship Johannes Kepler from its mission into the heart of the mysterious Large Magellanic Cloud. A mission that met with disaster…

To find out what overtook the crew of the Johannes Kepler, the Doctor and his companions must journey into the heart of the Cloud… and beyond, into the darkness of another reality altogether. The universe of the Star Men.
Quote:
Dr Who: Forever Fallen

"Just occasionally you find a new writer who absolutely nails the distinctive traits of one of your favourite characters," - Sci-Fi Bulletin

"...And it’s not just the author who rocks this. You can always rely on Nicholas Briggs to do a brilliant job, and as ever, he doesn’t disappoint," Mass Movement

Doctor Who: Short Trips Monthly is a series of new short stories read by an original cast member. This special release is a Seventh Doctor and Ace story, and is offered as a free download via the Paul Spragg Short Trips Memorial Opportunity in 2016.

Until now, an offered chance from the Doctor has never stopped the villain's schemes.

Until now, the android armies, the powerful space stations, the mind-control rays, have gone unchecked to disastrous effect.

Until now...

...But then what happens?

Big Finish have got a huge new Doctor Who promotion running until 22 December.

99 titles for 99p!

Obviously that's 99p each. You'll need the code at the bottom of the linked page to gain access to the sale page itself.
  • Every single one of the monthly Doctor Who audio dramas from July 1999 to November 2003 (x50)
  • All of the stories from the Dalek Empire spin-off range (x18)
  • The Destiny of the Doctor audiobooks released in 2013 for the fiftieth anniversary (x11)
  • The very first UNIT spin-off series (x4)
  • The very first Cyberman spin-off series (x4)
  • The highly acclaimed I, Davros spin-off series, plus sequel story (x5)
  • The adaptations of the Doctor Who stageplays (x3)
  • And finally, the stories from the second season of the Iris Wildthyme spin-off series (x4)

Bearing in mind when the CDs starting coming out in 1999 they were £13.99 each, there's quite a few downloads to be had for not a lot.

Incidentally, they've also recently announced that the physical CDs of releases 51-100 in the main Doctor Who range are going out of print, so they're currently reduced in price. Once they're gone they'll only be available as downloads.

Big Finish -- Weekly Deals -- exp 12 Apr @ 11:59 pm BST


FREE -- The War Doctor - The Innocent (series) -- Nicholas Briggs/ full cast -- 67 min

Quote:
This week’s free title is:

Doctor Who: The War Doctor – The Innocent

Starring John Hurt and Jacqueline Pearce, this story is notable for being the first Big Finish release featuring a “new series” Doctor. Set during the Time War, it concerns the War Doctor’s recovery on the peaceful planet Keska.

As the Daleks mass their time fleet for a final assault on Gallifrey, something ancient is waiting for them at Omega One. And a sacrifice must be made.

Arch-manipulator and Time Lord strategist, Cardinal Ollistra receives shock news of the Doctor’s death.

Meanwhile, on the planet Keska, a parochial war has returned to plague a peaceful civilisation after decades of tranquillity. But how can such a war have any connection with the great Time War which, at any one moment in the whole of eternity, could threaten to tear the universe apart?

If only the Doctor were still alive.

Big Finish listeners can get up to 50% off related War Doctor adventures at the Weekly Deals page, or save even more money with a download bundle of The War Doctor 1-4: (These offers expire at 23:59 UK time on 12 April 2020.)

Further free stories will be released over the next eight weeks. (We're keeping each free title a surprise until we release it, so keep checking back every Monday.)
