Torchwood vs Class Anniversary Battle!

It’s blasting a ■■■■ (did no focus groups raise the awkward to shorten title?) or yo ho hoing with a bottle of rum.

Wasn’t there a recent announcement[1] that it would drop in early January 2027? I feel like there was a specific date but I forget when. It was widely regarded as the graveyard season for television.

I think that it was a rumor but not confirmed. I dont belive it before I see it.

@shauny Quick question to make sure I time my viewing perfectly (and apologies if I missed this being answered elsewhere). Is this starting midnight October 22 UK time or is it local to the user?

It’s UK time, all the events work on server-time which is set in the UK!

Cheers for the quick clarification.
That was what I had expected but just wanted to check I can start watching and logging what will be late tomorrow evening for me!

Regarding the Torchwood side, I might review “Web of Lies” or one of the side comics.

“Class”, I might have a look at the novels.

I’m hyped for this! Got some Torchwood downloaded and ready to go!

Planning relistens of:

The Hope, Nerves, One Rule, The Last Beacon and Suckers this week!

As well as a Class audio! (Going to try my very best to make it even)

I’m kinda looking forward to this too. I’ve got Miracle Day and Class on DVD from my library ready to go.

I’ve got Class ready to go, then I’m turning heel and aligning with Torchwood. I’ve got so many audios in my backlog.

I didn’t have any big plans for my birthday but I guess it’ll be very Torchwood oriented lol. Does this start at like midnight, I’ll probably be awake.

Edit: yay it is midnight yesssss

As an American I think I’m going to miss out on Class for a year. My only option appears to be buying it digitally off Amazon, but its both cheaper and better to just buy the blu ray. And I dont really want to do that this month, plus it would take some time to ship. (Also not a good omen for the CBBC show that’s so far an iPlayer exclusive. Just let me buy iPlayer please!)

This is my plan as well, I’m going to watch Class, listen to The Secret Diary of a Rhodian Prince, and then see how many of the Torchwood audios I’ve picked up in sales I can get through in the remaining time (Broken, Moving Target, The Dollhouse, Goodbye Piccadilly, Dinner and a Show, Ex Machina, Suckers and The Last Love Song of Suzie Costello).

They just added Class to Kanopy. It’s free, like a library for movies and shows. You make an account and get like 30 tickets a month. The season of Class is like 5 tickets. I actually learned about it through my library.

They also have the movies and first nine seasons of New Who

The event starts in 4 hours for everyone regardless of the timezone they’re in, right? The little timezone-specific countdown thingy is confusing me :sweat_smile:

It’s forum time only, ie UK time

Thanks!

I only have a few more chapters of Class: Joyride left and wanted to make sure I didn’t actually have to wait until midnight to finish it for it to count. Then I’m going to use this event as an excuse to finally start the Torchwood audios and see how far into the main range I can get in a week :)
