"Trapped in his Tardis caught in a dematerialising loop so not currently "in" the universe thus assumed dead".

A bit like Scotty in that transporter storage pattern in ST:TNG

That'd be "Relics". A class episode, IMHO. But only 'cos Scotty was in it, otherwise it would have been a bit crap.

Well two daleks did survive..one in "Dalek"..and one in "Parting of the ways" which rebuilt the Dalek army from couch potato humanity. One Time Lord survives so far..so to balance the annilation hypothesis..we can have another Time Lord. Someone resourceful..able to rebuild the Time Lord technology and power base and rule over it as the Dalek Emperor did. Probably needs to be rather self-driven and with a willingness to rule.

Can't think of any Time Lords that might fit that bill..can you?

Sounds like a job for Romana.

Missing presumed dead the first time the Doctor blew the fuck out of Gallifrey. She was badass as the War Queen of Gallifrey though.

Did she come back from E-space, then?

Naaa, had a Dyson Sphere in it, so is very cool due to that. Shame we never found out more about it mind you.

Final scene withheld until transmission

I thought that was magnificent - possibly the best ep I've seen of the revival, up there with Girl in the Fireplace.

Whoever the audio editor is, they earned their corn. The use of "Mr. Blue Sky" was absolutely inspired; the fade into the line "hey there, you with the pretty face, welcome to the human race!" was a shiver-down-the-spine moment.

Cyberhead Boxset for series 2

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000 ... e&n=283926

Also The Invasion (Pat Troughton Cyberman story) gets a dvd release in November with the 2 missing episodes animated by Cosgrove Hall.

The Sontaran Experiment in October and the Return of the Master box set in Jan 2007 (Keeper of Traken, Logopolis and Castrovalva)

Bloomin' '60s BBC muppets! (For wiping the tapes.)

I'll definitely be snagging that, anyway. The Tomb of the Cybermen was excellent! Patrick Troughton was a very good Doctor.

a.k.a. "The Nyssa box set".

Agreed, I LOVED Troughton. Btw, wasn't The Sontaran Experiment a one off hour long spinoff drama ? I have some recolection of that, or similar ?

ISTR some speculation as to what might have happened to the Prime Minister and her government after the Doctor's six words in The Christmas Invasion. Kennedy's newspaper might provide a clue.

Or in a different universe, as we've already visited.

Hmmmmm...

You're giving me ideas here. Stoppit!
