I’m mainly clarifying for schedule purposes since I’ve got the rest of 2024 fully updated on my document. I’ll add the trilogy+Plague Herds with maybe an asterix. Updated Schedule post can potentially be here by morning (USA time). However, I can wait if you want.
A couple quick TV Club questions for next year.
First, how are we handling the Series 3 finale? Is Utopia being combined with The Sound of Drums / Last of the Time Lords or is going to be a separate thread?
Second, are we including The Infinite Quest as part of the TV Club with its timeline placement being between 42 and Human Nature?
I think we’ll do Utopia separately from the two part finale.
Infinite Quest is possibly a candidate for a TV Club Extra.
I’d definitely say that we should keep Utopia separate. There’s a lot of stuff and world-building that is used in the finale two-parter, but Utopia is basically it’s own base under siege story the way I see it
Infinite Quest is a bit of fun, so I’d definitely say make an extra with that one (though does that mean we also have to do the other one?)
Okay, sounds good. I’ll post the updated 2024 schedule in a bit then. There won’t be an updated 2025 schedule until whenever we’ve decided what audio range will take over the Audio Club after MR#50.
I don’t understand you. You don’t like the tenth Doctor but you like the boring Infinite Quest…
It’s got a big metallic bird in it! How can I hate that
And from the Fandom description: “Baltazar promised him all the gold he could eat”
Out of curiosity, was the first thread still going to drop today?
I’m so sorry! My daughter ended up in hospital with a broken arm and I forgot all about it! It should have dropped because I did schedule it to. I’ll see what’s happened.
No idea what happened because I’m sure I scheduled it but it didn’t seem to have the timer on it.
It’s there now
Oh shit, hope everything’s okay
No problem. Life happens. Taking care of your family always comes first. I wasn’t trying to pressure you, just curious.
Oh no, that’s okay. As I say, I’d written it all up yesterday and I thought I’d set it to publish today but maybe I never set the timer. I’m just sitting up waiting for my wife to call from the hospital so it’s no problem and I’m glad you pointed it out.
When we reach this point (mid-January 2025), I would suggest having a short-list ready to go for the main poll that will go out to the whole community.
Absolutely. But I’m struggling with getting my head around it being September! I can’t even think about 2025!!
I know, where did the time go?
I must say that I have really enjoyed our Audio Club extra. I have been listening to the MR a bit in advance and when the club comes I have usually forgotten the story. But for the extra, I have been listing once a week and it has been fun (even if the stories were kind of meh).
I think the right way forward is to have a couple of weeks whiteout the extra club and then do another one for another small set. Maybe something from the new Who.
What do you think?

I need to continue that sometime. I listened to the first box but nothing after that.
The second season is fantastic, might be the best of them all actually
