    Why did this issue not do `Fact of Fiction` article on `Mission to the Unknown` instead of that awful 1st Doctor Cosplay rubbish?

      That is correct. No news at all.

      Yes, I just flicked through and couldn’t find anything. I’m guessing Season 10 is releasing in July now, because otherwise they’re cutting it fine.

      Well that is disapointing.

      I hope they just release an announcment trailer for the next set like they did for season 18

      Chris Chapman has indicated that the news is planned to be revealed by the trailer being released and that the delay in announcing it is down to wanting to give The Macra Terror its moment in the spotlight of discussion.

    I wonder if the will include the tv movie as an extra with season 26 because otherwise it would only be 5 discs (the 4 stories and bonus features)

      It was stated in dr who magazine years back when they did their 3 part dvd article that the 80s have loads of behind the scenes material that never hot released due to lack of popularity for colin baker and sylvester mccoy. There is at least 3 hours for time of the rani which was meant to be a 2 disc release but the budget got cut

      There is loads of bonus material and behind the scenes footage from the 80s episodes that never got released on dvd due to lack of popularity for the colin baker and sylvester mccoy era. A 3 part dr who magazine article on the dvd range spoke to the team behind it and they said that there was at least 3 hours of behind the scenes footage for time and the rani which was meant to be a 2 disc release but their budget got cut to one disc. I guess that they will aim to finally get all of that out into the public

      Oh right i didnt know that, i imagine they will also include the extended version of silver nemesis for season 25 that was exclusive on the german set from 2 years ago (also this comment was meant to be a reply to my other comment lol)

      Since the German McCoy set which used 2nd gen quality footage for the missing scenes they found the original master tapes for silver nemesis se (it was mislabelled rather than lost) so it won’t exactly be the same version that was released on the set.

      As for the TV movie Peter crocker said last year that he thinks it will probably be on s26 but whether or not that is still the plan is unclear

      Would be nice to have a separate Wilderness Years box set.

      I’m hoping that’s the case too

      Doctor Who Magazine tweeted hour ago that their office copies just arrived, so I guess the preorders might not get this one early. We may have to wait for the Pocketmags to kick in during the night.
