June 10th, 2026 - 7:21pmSo, I didn’t know where to post this, but as there’s a really nice little community on here, it felt it right.
I first caught Who at the tail end of the original run, that was my introduction and for those few weeks and months it gripped me. Then nothing.
Every now and again we would visit a video shop and buy Who videos, I wore out the Fenric tape! And then nothing.
Paul McGann is THE Doctor. Bought more videos, saw the tv movie then nothing.
We moved house in 2003 and found my old Who videos, then I became the proper fan, watched everyone and bought more. And that’s how it was.
Then it was due to come back in 2005!
It’s been up and down ever since (more ups) but I’ve always loved the show… the imagination, the regenerations, the stories.
My love for that show, which has also shaped me into trying to be a better, thoughtful, respectful and happy person, will never die.
Where ever its future is, I can guarantee it will return, one day, not tomorrow, next week, next year or maybe even the next 10 years, but it will return.

June 10th, 2026 - 8:54pmI have memories of small bits of the green death (I was 3) then I remember alpha centauri from the monster of pelodon (but sadly and annoyingly I have no memories of the ice warriors) then I clearly remember from episode 6 of the planet of the spiders all the way through to episode 3 of survival. I loved the 1996 mcgann movie and I’ve enjoyed new who from 2005 up till the end of Jodie’s era. I’ve struggled a bit with Russell’s return but have enjoyed some stories. Its had a profound effect on my life. Helping me through depression and life in general. I’ve lifelong friends because of this show. Even met my partner because of it. She likes classic, smith and jodie. Our daughter loves it all. Cheers who, you’ve been a pal.
Gordon
June 10th, 2026 - 11:48pmWhat a lovely posts guys. The show has been there in more than a few times in the past 20 plus since 2005 when I’ve been down or low. Girlfriend break ups, family loss, depression and other sad times. It’s helped me taking my mind of things a lot. Admitedly it’s not always been on the same level of love for it as when it was in prime but there is still feeling there.
I do have friends that are who fans but I as I have other interests they are also into like films and music as well as gigs.
I’ve enjoyed some of rtd 2 era stories however both finales left a bitter taste in my mouth and that isn’t something that is just there for that era. Chibnel era feels similar with their finale’s so it’s not just a rtd 2 problem.
After how the last ep ended I’m actually ok where it currently stops for a couple of years. Gives the bbc time to regroup, figure on what went on and go and come back hopefully stronger better refreshed and renewed. Yeah it’s a little sad that doctor who is going away for a bit but it’s not dead. It’s out to competitive tender and I’m hopeful it will get another production company doing it and eventually will be back.
As much as I have love for the main show it was the dvd releases that really cermented my love my show. In 2005 I was playing catch up and by 2008 I was playing the waiting game sometimes not knowing what the next release going up for pre order. Going forward my doctor who focus will be on the collection and animations. I know I have had my issues for the last couple of sets but I still think in terms of bonus features the collection range is one of the most fantastic and value for money for the bonus features. Plus there are also other shows movies and music that I’m into. I’m not going to focus on the sadness and being mopey at it being gone but rather other things that makes me happy.
bookcollector
June 11th, 2026 - 12:33amThat’s one of the differences this time Gordon. When it ended originally we had so little material. Now I have all of the stories available to watch. But I also have hundreds of movies as I’m a big film fan. I’ve hundreds of music cds as I’m (an old-fashioned) music fan. My latest cd is out tomorrow (tarja, a Finnish opera-metal star) I’ve a wide range of interests including obviously a huge book collection of which who is only a part. As you say Gordon it’s sad but this time round we have lots to keep us occupied
Gordon
June 11th, 2026 - 2:10amAgreed. The doctor who world is so much bigger now than it was 36 years ago last time round plus it’s way more easier and accessable. Previously you had to be made aware of things being released and getting hold of things from independent companies etc may involve sending away postal orders and cheques and waiting sometimes weeks to get things back. Now it’s all easily found out and viewable in seconds as it’s easily downloadable or put on YouTube. It’s all a fingertip away The fan creator community will play a good part going forward especially with how talented some of them are
Oh I know of tarja. Was a fan back from when she was in nightwish. I can’t say I’ve completely kept up with her solo career but I did like listening to her what lies beneath and colours in the dark albums. Even saw her live in 2016 as she was playing a festival I went to.
Prof Horner
June 11th, 2026 - 9:26amWell my earliest memory of the series was season 6 and early Pertwee seasons terrified me . I remember how disappointed I felt when the special was cancelled back in 1993 . It feels different this time. The truth is I don’t care. Is that sad.Come on gives us colour tease for the next season boxset.
Alydon2007
June 11th, 2026 - 10:07amCrikey… I feel old…
I was initially turned on to the series through a fascination with Dalek rolykins on a very early family holiday, and I first started watching halfway though THE WEB PLANET, though I was so young I wasn’t always sure what was happening. My earliest memories are pretty vague for Hartnell, clearer for Troughton (I was convinced that the Krotons were actually Trods from TVComic), but it was the Pertwee era when I actually started following the stories and wasn’t just watching for the monsters.
And to echo some of the above comments… it may be off our screens for a while, but I’m sure it will be back.
Rory, the original you might say
June 11th, 2026 - 4:59pmI grew up with 80s Who, and I collected what scant offerings were available at the time. I had a great librarian at my local library who would always manage to get as many Targets as possible, whether by purchasing the new releases or by doing swaps with other libraries, so I mostly got to experience the first three Doctors and parts of four through the Target novels.
In the 90s I got my Who fix through the Virgin novels and waking up early at the weekend to record classic Who on UK Gold, so I eventually got to see every existing story. I avidly scoured the John Fitton catalogues for anything I hadn’t yet consumed, and managed to collect almost every Target and Virgin novel (I have since filled the holes in my collection).
Doctor Who has been with me for as long as I can remember. While I didn’t like the RTD2 era because I thought it had the same problems as his first era, but turned up to 11, I love experiencing new Who stories. I’m sad that there won’t be a xmas special, but there is still a lot of new work being created. This is a far cry from the wilderness years, although I wouldn’t mind having a new book published every month again.
This isn’t the end. It’s just a necessary pause. I look forward to seeing what comes next.

Also, I have seen Tarja several times, with and without Nightwish. I enjoy my music as much as I enjoy my Doctor Who, so it’s nice to see that there are others out there with similar tastes.
bookcollector
June 11th, 2026 - 5:18pmTarja is a definite favourite, unfortunately tomorrow’s cd is delayed as his masters haven’t received stock yet. I also follow the other nightwish leads, anette olzon and floor jansen. But it’s a wide range of music I listen too. Can’t listen to audio stories any more due to issues relating to concentration that arose from my mental health but music I can still enjoy.
bookcollector
June 12th, 2026 - 10:09pmJust received the email telling me my tarja cd is on the way. Much needed boost. Judging by the singles it’s set to be her heaviest album yet and I can’t wait!
Oh and my very first doctor who merchandise I bought… gerry Davis’ tenth planet target book when I was 7. Been thinking of who off and on all day and that suddenly came back to me.
James Spackman
June 9th, 2026 - 12:00amAny ideas as to what the next box set might be? , S11 or S16 have been speculated?.
ex15
June 9th, 2026 - 6:28amS16 I believe is expected.
COMICshopsDontStand
June 9th, 2026 - 7:28amI guess any update. / announcement wont happen until Circut Breaker as all been released depending how well that goes.
Prof Horner
June 9th, 2026 - 8:04amHopefully we will get a colour tease soon. Since there are only two colour seasons left to release. We from the colour, which one it will be. Blue for 11 ,purple or pink for 16. With a proper announcement next month.
Rob
June 9th, 2026 - 1:14pmNo word on animations either, like you said maybe after Circuit Breaker!
James
June 2nd, 2026 - 11:10pmRandom request. Is anyone good with Photoshop/ai/chat gpt? Looking at seeing if its possible to create a Blu-ray size cover using the template of the old silver dvd covers. Wanted to create a cover for Resurrection of the Daleks for starters. Updating the special features to cover all features old and new from the Blu-ray Collection S21 discs.
DPHill
June 2nd, 2026 - 11:21pmHello, I have always been a cover changer to match the style of the typical classic range, all nuWho dvds are in that styles as well as sja, wilderness unoficial spin-offs, the stageplays, lost season 23 and 27, i have also toyed with doing the televised omnibuses, all updated effects and omnibuses that have featured on blu-ray but not dvd, i even have the myth makers documentary collection dvds in the old classic dvd range format – question is, do you have a particular artwork in mind from anywhere? I could easily do one for you if there was an artwork – i do have a resurrection artwork in my clutches that i could use as i was going to do my own one anyways
James

Either use the original release or the special edition from revisitations box set.
Rob
June 9th, 2026 - 1:13pmI didnt think chatgpt or copilot allow copyrighted material to be uploaded and altered.
James
June 9th, 2026 - 1:20pmManaged to get chat to alter the Daleks and war games colour covers so the text wasn’t multicoloured and matched the rest

May 29th, 2026 - 10:43amWatched the tv movie on 4K last night and without doubt the best bbc upscale to date!
I knew it would be brilliant anyway but seeing it how it’s been for the last 30 years and now the new upscale, wow. Well done all involved!
Craig F
May 29th, 2026 - 5:53pmWell not an upscale, Paul V just done a 4K scan from the original 35mm negative.
Nb7
May 29th, 2026 - 6:41pmStill looks incredible.
Prowl 1701
May 29th, 2026 - 7:03pmThe 4K scan is much much better than an upscale. It’s in true 4K HD for the first time.
Rob
June 9th, 2026 - 1:13pmI agree, its incredible
Prof Horner
May 25th, 2026 - 12:55pmWell I would be interested in views on a Space Pirates animations later this year. If we get we get season 6 released later next year. It would have to be a far shorter release time between the animation stand alone release and the inclusion on the season 6 boxset. Maybe less than a year. Our friend Prowl did an excellent video on future animations .
Matt L
May 25th, 2026 - 1:32pmProwl’s videos are always a good watch, appreciate them. Yeah hoping it’s season 16 later this year and then next year S11 and S6 hopefully
Harold Shand
May 25th, 2026 - 6:14pmIs this speculation or announced? I may have missed it
Professor Flibble
May 25th, 2026 - 6:36pmI could see it being Space Pirates. A lot of people talk about its reputation but I think it’s been conspicuous by its absence. The only gap in Season 6, only a handful of characters with simple outfits, some fairly basic locations, and an opportunity to zhuzh it up a little.
Prof Horner
May 25th, 2026 - 6:57pmI was speculating on The Space Pirates beening animated. Just watched and commented on Prowls latest video on no news on animations.
Bookcollector
May 25th, 2026 - 9:10pmI’d like to see space pirates animated as it’s a story I think would benefit greatly from having visuals over just the audio. The savages is one that is helped greatly by the animation, which I enjoyed, yes it’s a fairly simple animation style but it greatly improves the story being able see it than just listen to it. Pirates is one that an animated version of would I think see it be reassessed. It’s not the greatest story and has some plot holes big enough to get the v-41 through but it is fun and the team of troughton, Jamie and zoe are one that is just fun to hear on the missing episodes. There are stories I think are better but sometimes it’s nice to get a weaker story and watch it with a fresh eyes.
Scotel
May 25th, 2026 - 10:27pmThe Space Pirates definitely suffers from the lack of visuals (for my personal tastes I’d say The Myth Makers suffers worse, but it’s definitely second place).
Also with the two TARDIS Timegirl animations we’ll be able to watch the complete Troughton era at long last.
Gordon
May 27th, 2026 - 1:56amIt probably wouldn’t happen but I wouldn’t be against a model and miniatures/animation hybrid with chris Thompson and his b7 model team doing the models trying to match the models and shots from ep2. I’ve always thought the space pirates would be a good one to do with a supermarionation style but I’d imagine that would be way to expensive plus I’d imagine Chris and co are busy.
Prowl 1701
May 27th, 2026 - 5:44amI’d definitely enjoy seeing an animation of The Space Pirates as I consider it to be a very visual story. If they took some creative liberties like they did with Macra I think we could get a really good animation story.
Professor Flibble
May 27th, 2026 - 12:00pmEpisode 2 doesn’t seem properly representative of the whole story, it’s the only episode that doesn’t feature Caven and it doesn’t feature Dom Issigri either. Bit like how Episode 3 of Enemy of the World was the only one for years and people didn’t care for it.
Prowl 1701
May 27th, 2026 - 10:25pmPlus in episode 2 our main cast are just stuck in that one room not able to do much for the episode.
Amypondfan
May 28th, 2026 - 12:04amCould be worse they are barely in some of the other episodes!
Professor Flibble
May 28th, 2026 - 12:50am15 minutes it takes for the TARDIS to arrive in Episode 1. I think yeah the story’s not very popular not only because of how missing it is (no telesnaps, barely any photographic material, only one surviving episode that isn’t representative of the whole thing), but also how absent Troughton and all that are in the whole story.
Also, Prowl 1701, want to say I enjoy your videos! Always nice when we get an announcement for a missing episode animation or a collection set and seeing your intitial thoughts on them
DPHill
May 28th, 2026 - 2:00amSure that a recovery or more likely an animation would bolster this story in a lot of people’s opinions -personally going for wheel but only because it is sixty years of the cybermen this year!!
Prowl 1701
May 28th, 2026 - 8:07amThanks professor, I appreciate you watching the channel! I feel soace pirates was just there to fill slots until they got ready for wars games. Do t our main cast just appear in pre filmed parts of part six as they were filing war games by then?
Bookcollector
May 28th, 2026 - 8:21amYes prowl, it takes 15 mins for them to appear in episode 1 and they only appear in pre filmed inserts in Episode 6. They are in around three minutes of the episode
Prowl 1701
May 29th, 2026 - 6:59pmI’ve only gone through the space pirates once as that recon is a rough watch. The novelization is a good read though.
bookcollector
May 29th, 2026 - 8:11pmAlways enjoyed the novel. Terrance did a good job with a rather rough story. The reconstruction is okay but an animation would be great.
