Does anybody genuinely think that, if all these missing episodes had been found, the BBC would release them all onto the iPlayer for free as the first port of call? Surely, they would monetize the daylights out of them first - individual releases to DVD, then BluRay, then the Collectors Edition Season boxsets, and then the standard edition. All of that would happen long before they'd be released to iPlayer surely. Not to mention there'd be a big song and dance about the return, not just a badly worded statement about the entirety of classic Who in general that could mean a million different things. Who said they're free? Were EOTW and WOF? |

Careful mate your speaking sense and logic not everyone on this thread welcomes that. Careful mate your (sic) speaking negatively and pessimistically not everyone on this thread welcomes that. |

Not BritBox, not iTunes, not any paid-for option, but iPlayer. |

This is VERY clearly saying that AUC / Tribe of Gum will be missing from the lineup, not that all the currently missing episodes have been recovered and will be on iPlayer. TBH, I think you have to wilfully misread the article to think otherwise, so I'm closing this thread. Can we stop with the rumour mongering, please as - in this case at least - it's pushing perilously close to plain trolling. There's been a couple of similarly thoughtless posts recently, and it's getting a bit wearisome having to sort them. |
