5th Doctor Snaketacular
Just in case anyone reading this hasn't already heard the news, Big Finish has finished recording their next 5th Doctor full cast audio plays for the 5th Doctor.
The plays will feature Peter Davison, Janet Fielding, Sarah Sutton, and Mark Strickson. The titles and basic storylines were revealled a few days ago:
***
The season begins in July with Cobwebs by Jonathan Morris, in which the travellers land on a scientific base which they have clearly visited before. The only thing is, it hasn’t happened yet… The guest cast includes Helen Griffin (Rise of the Cybermen/The Age of Steel), Raymond Coulthard (Hotel Babylon) and Adrian Lukis (Pride and Prejudice, Peak Practice).
The Whispering Forest by Stephen Cole follows in August, and is set on an alien world where a colony has become obsessed with cleanliness - while strange creatures are prowling among the trees. Guest stars include Hayley Atwell (who stars in the remake of The Prisoner and appeared in the audio Doctor Who story Blood of the Daleks), Paul Shelley (Four to Doomsday) and Harry Melling (the Harry Potter films) - who just happens to be the grandson of Second Doctor Patrick Troughton!
Finally, the Mara returns in The Cradle of the Snake by Marc Platt, which sees the TARDIS crew return to Manussa, a planet that they last visited in 1983’s Snakedance.

Can I get a 'woo' and a 'hoo'? ;)
