And in actual fact, its more likely than not that all or some of Marco Polo could have indeed been found given how well it sold abroad… If I could have one whole Story, it'd be that one.

Of course given Reign of Terror sold well and that Abominable Snowmen and Wheel in Space were supposed to be with Enemy/Web, they would be the most likely returns (presumably not Wheel 1 though cause its been animated but hopefully the rest?)

They've only animated 10 minutes of Wheel 1. There doesn't appear to be any rational reason for it either. It does make you wonder if they were going to do Wheel, started and then stopped because they were told it had been found.
I've heard Fury is to be the next animation after Macra (not sure if it's already been started or what).

I pray to the Dr Who God in the sky that it's Marco Polo.

If you prefer the 'kick in the balls', then i'll take the easier ride and watch a full run of the BBC's much maligned Eldorado.

I understand your cynicism, but the BFI's Dick Fiddy also seemed to be saying that there was more to come and that this is now the official start of a lot of returns.
I really don't see the home video market going anywhere anytime soon. That's just silly. Blu ray sales are on the up and DVDs are as popular as ever. Don't believe the paranoia.

I was just a tad exasperated when i read your original post.

Why not just announce what they have then say they'll get to work on things, see you whenever.

Hello - we have Evil of the Daleks but it will take two years to restore it.

Fine, we love you for that, look forward to it's restoration.

Sadly, that's just not how they do things these days. They only just announced the Macra animation, and that's been an open secret on most Who forums for about 6 months now!

Next time a women says giving birth is the most pain ever reply nah a kick in the bollocks .
She probably debate why , chances are a women will have a child and then possible want another never known any man to say he wants another kick in the balls.
