October 2nd, 2024 - 3:02pmIs there any word on what the next sets will most likely be after Season 25?
D84
October 2nd, 2024 - 4:14pmThink we heard from Gordon a while ago that S7 and S21 are amongst the next couple.
Tom Williams
October 2nd, 2024 - 6:36pmAs I believe season 7 is the next one more likely tbh and possibly 21 or 6
Gordon
October 2nd, 2024 - 8:59pmThat’s the rumour is anyway along with 6 which is a season that’s been rumoured to be in the works for years at this point. Restoration work on 7 is definitely in the process of happening so that seems most likely next. There has been rumoured filming of extras for 21 for a while. With only 10 seasons left and a potentially wilderness years set pretty near enough every remaining season is being worked on at some level whether it’s restoration or special features.
Tom Williams
October 3rd, 2024 - 12:38pmThank you for the update gordan 🙂 I was hoping for finally like others probably a Patrick troughton season finally lol
D84
September 26th, 2024 - 3:49pmJust a thought, and i know those involved had other work projects before now – but should we be concerned that the main contributors to The Collection range all of a sudden have other releases they are working on (The Box of Delights / Blakes 7)
Do we see The Collection being in jeopardy or slowing down to accommodate other works?
scotel
September 26th, 2024 - 5:37pmNo, they have other work to do. The Collection isn’t going to take up all their time and are understandably want to make money to pay bills.
Rex F
September 26th, 2024 - 5:59pmI would assume that the slow rate of Collection releases is what allows most contributors to work on these other projects? The “restoration” of the picture is what seems to take longest (it’s certainly the most rushed…) and that’s mainly done by one man still – if I see his name on the B7 set I’ll be very surprised. And disappointed.
Gordon
September 26th, 2024 - 10:32pmThe Blakes 7 releases are being worked on alongside the doctor who ones. They aren’t being done instead of. I don’t know if the box of delights restoration is being worked on by Peter Crocker/mark ayres. The lack of mention from either Peter or mark suggests they might not be involved with the restoration of it. Chris chapman who produces some of the documentaries has about 12 documentaries in various different stages alongside the upcoming releases of 5 documentaries on the season 25, b7 season 1 and box of delights releases. He was filming earlier in the week with Toby hadoke so he is more than able and willing to juggle multiple ranges at the same time
There is another company that handles some of the non doctor who restorations. Think it’s called the ark. They handled the red dwarf, the young ones, tinker trailer, edge of darkness, hitchikers, blackadder and a few other ones as well. There is definite room for them to do more than just doctor who.
James
September 26th, 2024 - 1:10pmWith all the NewWho doctor’s having a complete years release now (I know 3 out of 4 are usa only). Would the collection range be better doing Doctor sets instead of single series sets? Plus 2hats the chances of a Eccleston years set?
D84
September 26th, 2024 - 2:37pmI imagine if they were to do NewWho – it would be in Doctor era’s rather than individual seasons like the classic era.
But an Eccleston set just covering 1 year – tough to justify the cost even if it is rammed with extra’s
Rex F
September 26th, 2024 - 6:13pmCollection sets by Doctor? That’d mean no releases for a few years while they prepare them, surely? I can see them repackaging left over stock in years to come though, as a final push to maximise their return via shiny new packaging. A last push for the disc market in 2030 maybe.
Gordon
September 26th, 2024 - 11:31pmIt will most certainly be separate seasons. There is quite a bit of potential extras that could be produced for the new who seasons. I don’t think you could do complete doctors with so much extras unless the price of the complete set is severely bumped up to make it budgetly affordable to make. I can see the classic seasons eventually get repackaged into complete doctor sets but it is years away and also potentially just the episodes to save money and make it cheaper to produce.
Gordon
September 25th, 2024 - 1:29pmFor those itching for a Patrick troughton release box of delights is getting a blu ray release due out on November 25th. Chris chapman has produced a 90 plus minute making of documentary for it that features 25 people interviewed for it and returns to some of the original locations. He calls it a dream gig so I’m sure it will be the same high quality we usually get from his blu ray special features.
D84
September 25th, 2024 - 3:48pmWhat? ………. What! ………… WHAT !!
Rory
September 25th, 2024 - 5:07pmThat’s an instant buy.as part of my childhood.
Tom Williams
September 25th, 2024 - 5:16pmDoes this mean season 6 ? If so that’s understandable as people have asked about season 2 standard form not being announced yet and I guess the reason there’s been no more animation announcements?
Amypondfan
September 25th, 2024 - 6:07pmTom, box of delights was a fantasy series from 1984 starring Patrick troughton. It’s fondly remembered and many will be delighted with a new release of it.
Tom Williams
September 25th, 2024 - 8:09pmWell I dk what every dr started in lol apart from Tom baker with little Britain and John Pertwee with worzel gum-midge I guess I need too lower my hopes at mom on another season set 😀
Gordon
September 25th, 2024 - 9:16pmOh sorry guys. My bad. I just assumed most knew what box of delights was considering how beloved it is in some circles. Obviously not the case.
Here is the description and pre order info on Amazon for those that want to order:
In celebration of the 40th Anniversary of one of the BBC’s most beloved broadcasts, ‘The Box of Delights’ is remastered, including brand-new special features.
Considered to be one of the great works of modern fiction ‘The Box of Delights’ is brought to life in this magical, fantastical and delightful production starring Patrick Troughton, Devin Stanfield and Robert Stephens.
When Kay Harker meets a mysterious Punch and Judy man (Patrick Troughton) on his way home for Christmas, he little realizes that he is about to be plunged into adventure. The old man entrusts Kay with a strange puzzle box – the Box of Delights – before suddenly disappearing. Kay soon discovers two things: the box can transport him through time and space, and there is a plot to steal it. He must battle heroically against terrifying forces of evil in order to win the day…

September 25th, 2024 - 12:23pmQuick Question for Gordon (I know he will be looking).
It’s about all the Dr Who Blu-Ray Collections and Animations released over the last Few years that have had BFI Screenings, have they all had Limited PostCards Given away at the Actual Screenings or can you think of some that never had a Postcard accompany the Show?
Thankyou in advance.
Gordon
September 25th, 2024 - 1:21pmI’ve never been able to get to any of the events so not sure which ones got and didn’t get
Snowman
September 25th, 2024 - 4:29pmThanks anyway Gordon. That was my next Question, if you had been to many of the Showings. I’m up North so it’s abit too far for me aswell. But I would have loved to have gone to a few of them. Especially for the Freebies and the Cast and Crew Talks (Signings Etc).
Gordon
September 25th, 2024 - 8:57pmI’m up in the north east of Scotland which is a good 500 miles away from the bfi. I’ve been to London before for concerts but thats normally booked 6 months to a year in advance so it’s a lot more cheaper and affordable. with it being so expensive to book flights accommodation etc with only 6 ish weeks notice (it’s normally around £100-£200 for flights alone at that short notice) it’s never worked out financially worth it. I do want to do one and I’d definitely try and get tickets if it worked out if I was down there. I’ve been close that I’ve been down the weekend before the city of death one but it’s never fully matched. The only cinema screenings I’ve managed are the day of the doctor, deep breath, dalek movies double bill and the legend of ruby sunday/empire of death double bill.
I’m Batman
September 26th, 2024 - 1:57pmThey tend to have postcards for the Collection sets, not the animations. I remember for the Time Meddler for Season 2, they mentioned it, and then you could get them from certain peoples tables whoever is doing the signings. Not sure if you can just get one for free all the time or only to get signed. Possibly both.

September 20th, 2024 - 10:58pmSad news of the passing of David Graham. A true legend. RIP.
Prowl 1701
September 21st, 2024 - 3:32am99 years old, what a legend. And he came back and did some Dalek voices for the colorized version of The Daleks.
DPHill
September 22nd, 2024 - 1:15amSuch a shame, I only found out about a year ago he was fortunately still with us, bless him, such a stalwart, definitely no main recurring or main cast meme era of the 1920s still around now, rest in peace
Pipkin
September 22nd, 2024 - 10:19amWe still have the wonderful Arnold Yarrow (Bellal) who is still going at 104 years old.
we also say good bye to geoffrey Hinsliff from the stones of Blood who has just passed at the age of 87. RIP.
Pipkin
September 22nd, 2024 - 10:26amI forgot to mention the great Laurie webb (Mr. Ollis) who is now in his centenary year.
Amypondfan
September 22nd, 2024 - 10:45amGeoffrey was in image of the fendahl and nightmare of eden. He wasn’t in stones of blood so you may be mixing him up with someone else.
Pipkin
September 22nd, 2024 - 10:50amYes i meant image of the fendahl. Got my season stories mixed. Rushed in with my response.
Jamiouse
September 19th, 2024 - 3:43pmNot Season 25 related but, another Thursday rolls by and no animation announcement. I think we can safely say that’s it for 2024 releases. They might announce what the next animated title is but I doubt it will be released until early 2025.
I still live in hope of a Mission to the Unknown / Daleks Masterplan animation, they could release it in two parts over a year.
Prof Horner
September 19th, 2024 - 9:28pmThere is still three months to Christmas. It could be announced next week for an early December release. There is still plenty of time.
Amypondfan
September 19th, 2024 - 10:00pmMasterplan will probably be the final release and probably split into into two releases month apart. That is if it ever even gets done. More likely the smugglers or the savages for the next release.
Gordon
September 19th, 2024 - 10:54pmLet’s not forget they would need to pay for masterplan in advance. It’s 2-3 years work minimum. We are talking the sort of budget required that is really only reserved for one off specials on prime time tv. It’s going to be a big ask.
SV7
September 20th, 2024 - 8:28amI’m pleased someone else acknowledged this. I don’t want to sound dramatic but the lack of news regarding the next animation is making me suspect that the range has been quietly cancelled.
I first had suspicions when Toymaker was shown at the BFI and no one reported that any of the animators explicitly stated that there was another one on the way. The Underwater Menace screening was the complete opposite, with Paul Hembury confirming there was one more in the works (presumably Toymaker).
I’ve heard that Ian Levine seems to have heard it’s one of the stories he’s reconstructed using AI is the next release, but could they have just lied to him to get him off their backs so they can work on other unrelated projects? He also hasn’t leaked the title which I find strange as well…
What ever happens though, we can officially say that *just* over half the missing episodes were officially animated, and that is a huge achievement that would have seemed impossible ten years ago!
Nb7
September 20th, 2024 - 11:27amI’m sure there will be more animations, probably low budget end ones. There’s not been an announcement that they’re not making any more!
I’m guessing Sony and to some extent Disney have been helping fund them and if that’s the case I think it’ll be a little while before another announcement. I definitely wouldn’t write them off, someone will always help fund them.
Gordon
September 20th, 2024 - 2:23pmThey said back at the underwater menace bfi that there was at least 1 more from that animation team was being worked on. So there is at least 1 more in the works
Disney/sony have nothing to do with the missing episodes animations. Thats already been debunked
Scotel
September 20th, 2024 - 2:40pmThe Underwater Menace and The Celestial Toymaker were both entirely funded by BBC Studios. Bad Wolf (i.e. Sony) have no involvement in the animations and Disney do not have the rights to classic Who projects, even those produced by Bad Wolf (no Tales of the TARDIS and no colourisations).
The simplest answer is that The Underwater Menace took 15 months to make and whatevers next is taking a similar time frame. We know there’s more in the works but I’ve been expecting a 2025 release date from the start.
Nb7
September 20th, 2024 - 4:21pmMy bad, I just assumed they’d have been involved as the animations were announced to be coming back around the same time as the Disney and Sony deal’s announcements.
Does anyone know if the more recent animations are doing well in numbers?
Gordon

September 19th, 2024 - 3:29pmSo has the terrible loss of life and flooding in Poland ( where the duplication plant is ) delayed it further ?
Gordon
September 19th, 2024 - 10:37pmDepends on where in Poland the factory is. It’s over 300,000 square km. It’s a bigger space than the uk (246,000 square km). It could easily be in area where there is no flooding
Tom Williams
September 13th, 2024 - 12:44amReally glad I reordered this proper the other day on eBay hmv 🙂 now finally I can rebuy back the rest that’s needed especially:/
Harold Shand
September 3rd, 2024 - 8:51amHMV have advised release date is now 28th October rather than 21st
SV7
August 31st, 2024 - 7:27pmNow August is drawing to a close, I don’t suppose anyone has heard anything regarding the next animation? Seems like we’ve had radio silence since Toymaker was announced.
James
September 1st, 2024 - 12:17pmLong rumoured to be smugglers as underwater menace was leaked story at the same time last February. Toymaker done as 60th included the character. Apparently Ian has said its one he has already ai completed. If it is smugglers that would mean the s4 box set be closer to release as would just leave highlanders to do a recon for (been said its too complicated to animate due to tartan). Be a shame as only 3 Troughton stories left (highlanders, wheel in space and space pirates) but if all 60s sets are being released with 1 story short/not fully watchable. S1 Marco polo, s3 three x4 parters to choose from, s4 highlanders, s5 wheel, s6 pirates.
Obviously the remaining 9 stories (s1 marco polo 7/7, s2 the crusade 2, s3 myth makers 4/4, the Massacre..4/4, the savages 4/4, dmp 9/12, s4 highlander 4/4, s5 wheel in space 4/6, s6
the space pirates 5/6) will get the animation treatment. Mission to the unknown the bbc could do a deal to use the uniclan remake.
Even better if they worked with them do remake dmp in the same way they did mission.Either get David Bradley for 1st doc or cgi face tech like Disney did for Rogue One, rise of skywalker and dial of destiny to make it look like Hartnell. Next year will be 60 years since it first started (November 65 – January 66) so could be a Christmas broadcast event with mission televised aswell as its a prequel. Then a 2026 dvd/blu ray release. Possibly 2 s3 animations in 2025 would mean a possible s3 box set late 2027 early 28. I know all a pipedream
Gordon
September 1st, 2024 - 3:41pmEverything seems to have gone quiet. Even than potential August announcement I heard about ended up as nought. I’m sure once they are ready to announce things they will. All I really know is that it’s supposedly a more obscure one and if you believe Ian Levine it’s not the smugglers and one that he’s already done which makes me think it’s the savages.
Disney has zero interest in classic who. Only in the current show. Even if they were they aren’t going to let bbc use about 5 hours of that cgi face tech for free. It’s horrendously expensive. See that scene in Indiana jones it was the most expensive sequences in Disney history. Can’t remember the total amount but it costs millions per minute. These animations are dvd budgeted titles. The budget wouldn’t even pay for a minute of that cgi tech. It’s pretty much a non starter because of that
James
September 1st, 2024 - 4:37pmAs I say Gordon it be a pipedream. Would be fantastic if they could. Not a Disney Investment just meant a bbc studios make. Combined with Uniclan. Just as they did a fine job with mission be good to continue the story the same way.
Anon
September 1st, 2024 - 7:11pmDavid Bradley doesn’t seem interested in playing the doctor again. And he is 82. Not to mention that remaking masterplan would be horrendously expensive!
Gordon
September 2nd, 2024 - 12:01pmHaving a pipe dream is good but I’ve seen a few comments elsewhere suggesting that the animations should now look like Pixar as they have disney money and have free access to the technology. None of which is true
He’s got a big finish due out September next year. There is a big difference between audio and visual though. It definitely wouldn’t be done as quickly or as cheap as mission was when you take into account it would be done with a full cast and crew and they all got to get paid this time round, he’s also at least 25plus years older when Hartnell played him during masterplan you do have is he still suitable to play him on screen?. Claudia grant can’t play Susan again on screen. I mean she’s 39. Even with that rouge one tech she’s far too old to play that role. So you do have to question that for Bradley. A cameo ala power of the doctor fine. But a full on adventure which is a lot more physically demanding. A recast would be better.

August 31st, 2024 - 11:29amHi all,
Just received an update about my pre-order for this box set.
It seems that it has been delayed until 28th October.
I had mine on pre-order from HMV but I would imagine that most of the major retailers will be the same.
Isaac
August 30th, 2024 - 10:37pmDoes anyone know if and/or when this is coming to Australia? I’m always nervous these days and wondering if I should just bite the bullet and buy the UK release.
Sofia Fox
September 9th, 2024 - 7:04amIt’s up in the air really, Season 9 was said to be the last one Universal Sony would release, but they relented and released Seasons 20 and 15. Maybe they might do 25, they might not. If they do, expect to pay more for it as they keep raising the price each time they release a set.
Tom Williams
August 30th, 2024 - 10:12pmDk if anyone has asked it yet but does anyone know as a possibility the slip case this could fit it when it comes out ie DW4 ? Etc
Rory
September 2nd, 2024 - 11:21amWe just won’t know until someone has one in hand. The size of the packaging is variable with some 8 disc sets fitting in DW4 and some fitting DW2.
Even within a single release the size can be variable depending on production. For example, some of the S2 sets had wider spines, so Steelbook Central created the DW3 size to fit, whereas mine fits (snugly) into the DW2.
Tom Williams
October 2nd, 2024 - 6:39pmSorry I asked only wondered if it was same as season 24/26 more no point bothering

August 23rd, 2024 - 8:32pmI’ve just watched the doctor who/Blake’s 7 crossover (sort of) shakedown on DVD. Starring various who and Blake’s 7 actors and written by Terrance dicks himself it’s great fun and looks pretty good considering the budget. Been after it on DVD for 24 years. Eventually had to get a custom version but it’s perfectly watchable. Done using the 1996 VHS version featuring the making of it’s obviously VHS quality meaning it’s subject to faults and fault lines throughout the source material but frankly I’ll take the rough quality just to finally have a copy again until someone pulls their finger out and gets it released officially.
