May 15th, 2024 - 12:28amThat’s only rumoured and denied by some of the people involved

May 13th, 2024 - 10:06amMust be due an announcement soon?
With the previous leak mid April saying “should be announced in the next few weeks” – you’d suspect that could be before the end of May ?
Thoughts people

May 13th, 2024 - 11:30amI’d be surprised if we get an announcement before the current series ends, although I’ll be happy to be proved wrong!
Tom Williams
May 13th, 2024 - 1:35pmMy opinion I think it will be June after the series finished as don’t forget season 22 standard edition hasn’t been released yet and has been rumoured as that month

May 13th, 2024 - 2:06pmJudging by recent history there seems to be a 2-3 month gap between announcement to release on “The Collection” sets
Which would mean even if it is announced soon, we are looking at July/August
With Toymaker Animation in for June, and S14 / S1 showing as August on my Pre Order – that really only leaves July and September with an available “slot”
My guess is S22 Standard will come in July, and the next Collection will drop September at the very earliest
We used to talk about “that months slot” across 11 months of the year for a media release on other forums – wouldn’t surprise me if the Beeb still work to this kind of release schedule

May 14th, 2024 - 7:36amI said elsewhere:
“I think were looking at mid July with a September release for S25 (possible S6), based on last year, any earlier announcement is a bonus if were getting 3 in a 12 month period.”

May 14th, 2024 - 7:47amCan’t see them still having the monthly slot thing as they don’t have enough releases to cover the slots.
2 new series releases (corr and season 1)
About 2-3 collection set releases (15,25 and maybe another if we are lucky)
2 -3 non limited collection sets (17, 22 and potentially 2)
Potentially 1-2 animated releases (toymaker and potentially another)
That’s 10 releases in a good year.
The bfi is currently renovating nft screen 1 (the screen they use for the doctor who screenings). Having checked the listings there doesn’t seem to be any screenings till at least the end of July. That suggests to me it will be at least August for the next screening

May 14th, 2024 - 10:42amI wonder which story is being colourised and the release date? I know it’s not a four episode, but beyond that no idea.
Wish the animations were quicker as well and there was a third team! Still 9 stories, if you strip out the Crusades, MTTU and Celestial
