Thank you very much for the kind words! I've always worried that the Mozart story got away from me a bit - it had been so long since I'd written a Who audio that I felt very self-conscious writing the thing, more so than any of the others. But I'm glad it amused!
Agreed on the sad fail of Raynor and the win of Shearman. I liked Bedtime story better than you did, but then I have no problem forgiving Lidster Master - which would be due to loving him for writing A Day in the Death (Torchwood s2) and Rage of the Beserker (The Sarah Jane Adventures s2), which were my favourite episodes in these respective seasons.
Re: Six about Five in the Cornell - I always thought that was an audio type of reference, since the entire story is meta and about the audios, not the tv stuff. Because Audio Five does have a great holiday time with Peri and Erimem. (In the flynotes to one of their earliest audio adventures, you have a memorable rant of the writers about the tv companions, which is basically, we liked Five, loathed his companions and the fact nobody could stand each other and everyone was whining while the universe was waiting to be saved - now here's us trying to do better).
I do love both of those episodes a good deal, actually. Perhaps a degree of clemency is in order--not that I think Lidster is out there somewhere waiting with bated breath for my esteem. :p
/That/ changes things considerably, and excuses the whole non-presence of one through four and makes a bit more sense re: the happy term as Five comment. I still think it might be a bit more fun as a BFA retrospective roundup, but it's certainly an interesting concept!
