Those rumours again

[thisbluespirit]

You know those rumours about missing DW episodes that just won't quite die? They've returned again and this time various sources are claiming that tomorrow the BBC are going to announce missing Patrick Troughton stories to be available digitally this week. (And that there may also be more found.)

At least this time, there's a deadline. We don't hear anything tomorrow, obviously it's just more rumour-mongering, but if we do...

*tries very hard not to think about that and get my hopes up for no reason*

ETA: Of course, now they're saying "end of the week" instead... *eyes rumours darkly*

Deadlines been moved to Thursday in this game of ever-shifting goal posts (source). If I had to put money on this I'd guess they'd found something but it's more likely to be a couple of episodes rather than a vast missing episode mountain of some description.

Thanks! I was being too lazy to link to who_at_50 on the LJ side, but they have all the links so far there, which is what I'm following. I saw some stuff on Tumblr yesterday, but I tend to resolutely ignore Tumblr!

If it's a vast missing mountain, it's one of various things, not just DW. Who knows? I just wish it'd either die a final and painful death or they'd actually confirm it. And I wouldn't care if they didn't say what it was, if they want to keep things up their sleeve, just, "Yes, there is something - stay tuned!" would be nice.

Ah well. Probably all pipe dreams again... :-/

I think, at this stage, there's likely to be a something (I'd wager at least a tenner on it), just because with a rumour as specific as a press conference on Thursday (now being reported in the Guardian as well), you'd expect them to deny at least that fact if it wasn't true.
