Bernice Summerfield: Dead and Buried

[@maxredjasper55]

Freaking Brax creating an entire archaeological complex complete with an indestructible robot just to nab someone. I love him so much. Wish he would appear on the Dr. Who show.

[@archivesmess]

No way! He would sass the Doctor too much, the companions would be confused JSSKHXOWJWJSHS (jk, I think its a pity he never showed up)

[@doctorwhodapol]

I have heard of Irving Braxiatel in passing till I started reading a fanfiction and now I am liking the character and am going to start collecting Bernice Summerfield and Gallifrey audios now

[@mustarddoctor]

So, Braxietel is a time lord and The Doctor's Brother? Lovely....

[@BoctorPink]

yep

[@slateoffate9812]

He's like the Mycroft to The Doctor's Sherlock.

[@DrBagPhD]

Wow, how far BF trailers have come. This is fab

[@timetraken3196]

Bernice and Brax, two of my favorite Big Finish creations! I wish there were more of these webcasts.

[@SouthPark333Gaming]

they aren't actually big finish creations... both appeared in the virgin books

[@Paradox586]

When she says "Ah, you've got to be kidding" and "Please don't be indestructible, please don't be indestructible, please don't be indestructible" it's entertaining how used to she is of situations like this after travelling with the Doctor

[@NancyClassicWhoDrew]

Best lines throughout the episode: "PLEASE don't be indestructible" and "Oh dammit..." I laughed so hard XD These are my favourite audios, I love the Bernice Summerfield adventures :3

[@VirtualVikki]

I was relistening to all the old adventures and then I had to come back and watch this again! It really was well done! I wish there was a CGI series for all the old stories. It would be epic!

[@TheRoserecords]

If she had her own series, I would watch. Even guest voices such as sophie aldred, Paul mcgann and sylvester mccoy would make this show popular but with Lisa it would be phenomenal :)

[@FallenAngelZagreus]

I adore Big Finish to no end. Watching this almost made me think of the old ps1 Tomb Raider games and got me thinking. I'd love a Bernice Video Game. That would be so amazing! But either way Bernice and Brax are honestly the best :)

[@tangerinealarm]

That was absolutely brilliant. Fantastic to see Bernice in full animation, excellent work!

[@grkpektis]

I just started listening to the audio dramas and I love them, you guys are awesome keep up the great work.

[@DerektheDalek]

Forget Ms Song, Mrs Croft or Mr Jones - Summerfield is my favourite Archaelogist and she's as cool as ever! Loved this and it's a great setup for the new series. My only downer? She never said 'Oh goddess' - and it's tradition for her to say it! :P Great work people!

[@AlanPostScript]

Since this is more of a short it seemed very rushed at times. But when it came to the action scenes it was very suspenseful. Would love to see this as a half-hour spot where you can take time to build up to the drama. Good job.

[@borisstoynov209]

more episodes please

[@VirtualVikki]

Benny would make such a great CGI TV series! This was a fantastic way to start the new season and well worth the extra wait! I hope to see more of these in the future!

[@irvingdraconian]

I think I look rather splendid.

[@tardiselliottrailers]

I’d love to see more of these, this was superb, can’t believe it’s 10 years old

[@diracsea4590]

Really? I remember getting this video and getting excited bc the next Summerfield series was coming out soon, and them saying it was going to end the arc they were on and I was like NO!! haha

[@dalekpoint999]

really good animation, it reminds me of a animation style from a film. Amazing. I think big finish and the BBC should to more of these animations, well done.

[@Voractyll]

Great to see (and hear) Benny in action! ... but am I the only one disappointed that she says 'dammit" at the end rather than "bugger"?! That's, like, her word!

[@raffaelm6558]

This is my favorite. Always has been since I found the Four Players. I love the song and I adore the last moment when she becomes invicible. It's a bold choice to give her a music video and it totally pays off. It makes her stand out. I can't even say how much I love this, really.

[@FloProproductions]

Amazing! Never listened to any of the audios, so might have to start getting them! Well done to all who made and helped out on this! I think the BBC should put this on the TV!

[@deferguard7748]

Irving is the best Time Lord.

[@okamuraken4360]

She became a companion with the 7th Doctor during a short absence of Ace. And Ace came back and resumed her friendship with him. She had tried to kill him off before she changed her mind, though.

[@Amxitsa]

This was brilliant, Big Finish need to make more of these.

[@tbonenglish]

doctor who needs this kind of animation action!

[@Timey2Wimey]

More of this please!! Been a Benny fan since 1996!

[@kennethmccall4809]

Is anyone aware that Braxiatel is the Doctor's older brother?

[@DavidBillingsleyDragon8472]

Indeed I do?

[@Samdemaeyer]

does doc have a brother

[@magicamadeye]

Irving braxiatel the doctors badass older brother

[@jonwes]

Guys this is amazing! Terrific work all!

[@maxcardun]

Bernice Summerfield the Mara Jade of Doctor Who.

[@shotgunn3535]

Except she's canon

[@maxcardun]

@@shotgunn3535 Oh Yeah? Where on the show do you see her mentioned outside of Big Finish Productions?

[@shotgunn3535]

@@maxcardun true, but most of Big Finish is canon. I guess that's a thing to ask Chibby

[@maxcardun]

@@shotgunn3535 Trust me, one day they'll say Big Finish continuity "doesn't exist". They did something similar to STAR WARS and STAR TREK, and it divided the fanbase.

[@shotgunn3535]

@@maxcardun I know, it's dumb that they do this. I can understand with Star Wars because once Legends happened there was no story to tell. So Disney felt forced into retconning it.

[@Greg_94]

wow! i really enjoyed this! the benny format seems to work really well as an animation. i hope there are more of these to come! great work

[@stretchmonkey]

Beautiful work!

[@SuperWolsey]

Mainly from his published works from Virgin, Big Finish and the Doctor Who 2006 Annual which introduced the Weeping Angels; the Benny short story The Least Important Man became the basis for The Girl In The Fireplace.

[@oblivionmedia]

@curufea the downloadable verison on the site has exactly the same poor audio compression issue

[@BloodyBart888]

So the Doctor's brother is HP Lovecraft?

[@slateoffate9812]

TheAmazingH No that'd be the writers in the wilderness years.

[@CrossoverKid92]

Awsome! I wanna get the Audio's now!!!

[@tlyoung88]

Big Finish needs a development deal with the BBC. They got Derek Jacobi before Russell did over at Dr. Who.

[@tardiselliot]

I'd love to see Big Finish adapt some of their audios with these animations

[@DerektheDalek]

@tbonenglish Indeed, would be interesting if BF got premission from the BBC to have a new Classic Doctor adventure with this style, though they might feel it was stepping on stuff like Dreamland...

[@merseymal]

Fantastic!

Incredible animation. Good stuff B.F.

[@GrisDismation]

Cool!

[@LaughingPsycho]

Very nice indeed.

[@Dolphination]

Well done guys. Let's have one with the 8th Doctor!

[@oblivionmedia]

an excellent video and it''s great to SEE a big finish production - however...for a company that is famous for excellent audioplays, the compression on this video of the sound is aweful...could have sacrificed some of the video compression to improve the sound.

[@ankarstian]

idk why but the animation reminds me of Xavier: Renegade Angel

[@curufea]

@oblivionmedia I don't think you get much say about the codecs used by KZbin when uploading (at least I've never been able to for mine)

[@Samdemaeyer]

big fan

[@Verumex]

Here's hoping for a Dr Who animation next :D And praying there's no legal barriers stopping it from happening.

Unlikely seeing how Series 6 played out and who her parents are.

Actually I can't remember River does some real archaeology. Except the Library all she really does is stocking the Doctor. How did she get her professor tittle again?

[@brendannahor1460]

Irving Braxital is apparently the Doctor's Brother?? 🤔

[@ProtonFilms_Mark]

Still more believable than Dreamland.

[@SuperWolsey]

Oh, no shes not! River's a one trick pony

[@TheatreJosh24601]

It's really weird just how quiet she is throughout this short.

[@lavaita9709]

As in not talking, or as in low-levels?

[@cousinmonachpsis5707]

I personally think the reason is because she does not have to tell us everything that is going on because we can see it.

[@android65mar]

Fabulous

[@lithrae1]

Not bad! I could be critical of a few things but I know with a one man effort eventually you have to just get on with the rendering. XD

[@grant9589]

It almost seemed that the Big Finish were trying to develop Brax into the Master until some changes were applied to the character to expand upon him and make him more unique. Brax as the Master and Brax not as the Master are both perfectly sound notions to me anyway!

[@matcochr]

As a character, Benny has been around longer actually.

[@GeorgeMillerAtkinson]

Please do this with the actual Doctor Who Audio's

Ouch. Now that's gonna leave a concussion.
