We Knew about the Basil brush episode but it is great hearing about the M&W episode being recovered- hopefully it will get a airing on the BBC, sadly though i don't think any missing who episodes will be among PM's Sierra leone finds

The lid is about to burst off the pressure cooker, for sure... These days pressure cookers have all sorts of safety features so I'm not hopeful

I applaud Ed's optimism, we should not shoot down positive vibes - let's face it, we are all gagging for the oxygen of hope - non-WHO recoveries are to be welcomed, at least stones are being lifted - we must keep the candle burning. There's a difference between optimism and self-delusion, and that goes both ways. It's interesting news fer shurr, but try not to get depressed if your hopes get dashed, that's the most important thing.

How on earth can any of us get depressed/self-deluded over 9 missing episodes handed in back in 2013 and the same person who found them promising us that the next reveals will be non-Who and following that goodness we'll get more Doctor Who "when we least expect it". Yeah, man, I'm really depressed! Jeez...

I reckon that his search is over now as he specifically said that he wouldn't be showing anything until his search was complete. The fact that he's now showing his non-who recoveries is great as it means that we should probably be getting another who anouncement sometime next year! Yes, this is the reason for optimism now. As we were often reminded, nothing would be revealed until the search was complete (the Enemy, Web and Sky at Night reveals were exceptions to this). However, something has now been revealed. This would suggest that the search is complete (maybe). Therefore, we might have optimism that more recovered episodes can now be revealed. Furthermore, Phil Morris was recently quoted as saying that people who are say that the number of missing episodes of Doctor Who will remain at 97 are talking nonsense. Therefore, we might also have optimism that more recovered episodes of Doctor Who can now be revealed.

Paul V has confirmed that at least a couple of episodes are known to exist with private collectors, so it could be related to that. Otherwise there is nothing else to go on.

It's not about losing faith, it's about no wanting to talk inane drivel and reading things into absolutely nothing at all.

Yeah, man, I'm really depressed! Jeez... Of course you're not... Not while your in the middle of spinning these threads, anyway. But you certainly will be with that bite and attitude, if nothing shows up for the foreseeable future. "When you least expect it" could be anytime. It's not like it's a date, the next batch of episodes could be in 30 years time. That's certainly when I would be "least expecting it". Exaggerations aside, my point is, not to get too wrapped up in this until something has actually been announced. It's not good for anyone. That Jodie Whittaker theory was pretty out there my dude, and while this was much more interesting, and a little bit weighty, it still doesn't prove anything. The most this kind of thing is doing, is getting potential hopes up, and giving me popcorn worthy entertainment. While I like to be entertained, I am thinking about your best interests at heart, too. Think of those times when you were but a small child, believing you were getting the gift you were promised on a certain day. You believed it was happening, but somehow, it didn't work out, something went wrong, and you felt upset about it. Must have happened at least once. That feeling doesn't go away as an adult.

I'm not saying that the omnirumour is 100% true but if it was and all 97 episodes were returned, how would the BBC even release them? How would they even anounce it?

Good points here all round here, but it's all case of let's wait and see. Whether we believe for many, or a few, in the final outcome our words of discussion won't be worth a hill of beans.

For a question like that to be answered, you would probably need to have been working at the BBC at some point to get a get a good understanding of how they market things. This is purely a guess here, but I would likely think it would be a drip release. It would be a marketable way to keep Doctor Who in the public eye if the news dripped out over the months and years like that. Web Of Fear and Enemy Of The World was all over the news, so it would be favourable to keep doing that now and again.

If you're really keen, look over some of the posts from 2013 on the various Boards. I'm pretty sure every scenario under the sun was hashed out then.

Does that mean you won't be starting any more pointless threads?! Surely not. How will I get my laughs and semi-serious discussion? Sammi Carter's videos will only get me so far out of the depression box, y'know. This is all I have.
