Well this continues to be never ending pleasant surprises. That is very fortunate to have a Dr. Who on our team.

Second bit of casting news, Sophie Aldred, another former Doctor Who star. I'm presuming she's playing Carol Wilson.

I'm beginning to detect a trend here.

Either Carol or Peggy, definitely. I doubt they'd cast her for some small part like the drug addict Keel runs into at the other Dr. Treading's office.

I hope not absolutely everyone winds up being from Who, as it could end up overshadowing the series as an Avengers project. Lots of Who actors do audio, though, especially with Big Finish, so I suppose they're obvious choices. Lots of great British actors do voicework, though, so hopefully they'll branch out a bit.

Sophie's a very capable actress who has been doing an awful lot since Who, though - she plays a couple of the main voices on the kids show "Tree Fu Tom" including the lead (male!) character and the villainous mushroom woman

So I am sure she can do the RP accent required for either Peggy or Carol.

She's playing neither apparently. A guest role in Episode 3.

The Doctor Who casting is clearly a way of getting Big Finish's customer base (which is predominantly into Doctor Who) to consider these releases.

Kind of hoping that Steed and Keel are not Who names.

It would appear that the actors for Steed and Keel got dressed up today.

Just seen Steed and Keel suited up ready to Avenge. They look and sound perfect.

They were doing a photo shoot. Should be made public tomorrow.
