Today sees the release of a limited-edition vinyl reissue of the Big Finish audio adventure Doctor Who: Fanfare for the Common Men issued by Demon Records and exclusive to UK ASDA stores.

This gatefold double LP is pressed on 140g red and purple vinyl and limited to 1,000 copies. The RRP is £20 and it is distributed to selected stores (please see list below) subject to availability.

As always, we recommend that Big Finish listeners call to check if their local store is stocking this exclusive LP before making a special journey. 

This full-cast adventure is written by Eddie Robson and stars Peter Davison and Sarah Sutton, reprising their roles as the Fifth Doctor and Nyssa respectively. The story was originally released in 2013 as part of Big Finish's 1963 audio trilogy celebrating the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, and also features comedian Mitch Benn (The Now Show) as a member of the band, The Common Men, mentioned in the very first Doctor Who episode.

If you remember the Sixties, they say, then you can't have been there.

The Doctor remembers the Sixties. That’s why he’s taking Nyssa on a trip back to November 1963. Back to where it all began. Back to the birth of the biggest band in the history of British music. Back to see those cheeky lads from Liverpool...

Mark, James and Korky. The Common Men. The boys who made the Sixties swing with songs like Oh, Won’t You Please Love Me?, Just Count To Three and Who Is That Man.

The Doctor remembers the Sixties. And there’s something very wrong with the Sixties, if the Beatles no longer exist...
