The new Royal Mail alternate days for second class post sucks. Makes it a real postcode lottery as to whether you get DWM on the Wednesday or not. It appears I’m in the wrong week now.
I’m so desperate to see the Season 21 disc breakdown.

If you are unhappy with use of AI upscaling on Doctor Who The Collection, it might be worth dropping a polite email to [email protected] . Especially whilst there may be time to make changes before Season 21 is released.

That same December McCoy also apparently featured in the Cambridge Arts Theatre Production Of Babes In The Wood. If I didn't know better I'd swear these were AI.

Heads up. Apparently the new standard release of Season 20 contains fixes to the juddering issues and the missing CGI shot on The Five Doctors 40th Anniversary Edition.

This is interesting. On Disc 4 (The Story and Interstellar discs) there’s a feature called Reality War Companion Catch-up. It’s interview with Varada and Carole Ann that was posted on YouTube. But it’s telling it was originally made for The Reality War.
