According to Big Finish these stories follow right after the 1996 "Doctor Who Movie"

Here is the info that Amazon does not provide. This is all directly from the Big Finish web site:

INCLUDES:

Bonus Documentary which takes a look at the making of the four adventures. Actors, writers, producers and directors - including Paul McGann, Gary Russell and Nicholas Briggs - reveal behind-the-scenes secrets, discuss production problems and recount all the fun and frolics encountered during these explosive four stories!

I learned about the 8th Dr. Who audio adventures just before the holidays. As one of my self Christmas treats I therefore ordered a bunch of Dr. Who audio adventures. I really liked the first story and the one with the Cybermen was outstanding. The other two were moderate to OK. As a bonus, it has a cd that has commentary from the creaters and actors/actresses. Plus, it has previews from the other seasons. As far as I know, those seasons are only downloadable. If you made them into cds, here's one fan who would order them. Especially since they've been hinting that Charlies, the Dr.'s new companion, might not be what she seams.

There are multiple people voicing the many characters in these rich, classic Dr Who adventures. Almost as good as as the new ones.
