The Confessions of Dorian Gray - The Complete Series Four comprises eight original episodes across four CDs, and once again revisits periods across his extended lifespan.

The Spirits of Christmas will be a two-disc seasonal special, picking up after the end of Series Four. Both the series and the special are available to pre-order now, with more information to be announced in the coming months.

“We were very lucky to be greenlit for a fourth series some time before the release of series three,” reveals Dorian’s producer and director Scott Handcock, “and we’ve already got some cracking stories coming in, from writers old and new. Having both a series and special also lets us play with the format a little - offering fans a taste of Dorian’s original ‘narrated’ exploits in the series itself, whilst also driving his ongoing story forward in the Christmas special. There really will be something for everyone!”

To celebrate, we’ve also released an early Christmas gift in the form of an exclusive mini-adventure free for Big Finish listeners:

Frostbite, written by Mark B. Oliver, finds Dorian in Manhattan on Christmas Eve, 1947, where he encounters a mysterious Woman in Blue.
