Big Finish have expanded their already impressive range of Doctor Who-related audios with the release of Jago and Litefoot - Season 1. Henry Gordon Jago and Professor Litefoot are two characters fondly remembered from the Tom Baker story The Talons of Weng-Chiang. So popular were they that they have been given their own audio series to explore the seedy underbelly of Victorian England. James and Trevor review the four story first season. We also have an interview with Henry Gordon Jago himself, Christopher Benjamin. Our thanks go to Luke from the The Minute Doctor Who Podcast for stepping in at the last minute and helping us out with this interview.
