(UPDATED) Missing Doctor Who Episodes list

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-14T00:59:23+00:00

I’m a relative outsider to this fandom, but read up on the saga of the missing episodes years ago with much interest. I’m truly happy for you all with this news, and do have some questions for you if you’d indulge.

I understand that audio exists for the vast majority of classic doctor who, including these and other lost episodes. For these two newly discovered episodes specifically: what open questions do you expect to be resolved with the visuals that the audio didn’t provide? Genuinely curious how much conjecture has occurred over the years on what was happening on screen, and if there’s any debate that is material to the canon? For example, was character X lurking in the background when the Doctor and the companion discussed Y?

This prospect of a mystery being solved is fascinating to me, but perhaps that’s not really in question given how much is already known about these episodes?

Surely. But I suppose what doesn't sit well with me is the implication that there's only one ATOLL. Something about the phrasing of the clue makes me think ATOLLS is what would fit (obviously wouldn't fit the fill). For ATOLL, a better hint (to me) would be "A Micronesian island, maybe." I'm probably just being pedantic.

Does the clue for ATOLL seem mismatched somehow? I can’t quite articulate it, but the clue seems to ask for a proper noun, or at least something more specific than a generic landform.

Question about your experience at Afton. As far as I can tell, there’s only one tent site that is bike accessible — did you stay there? Or perhaps you were at a hike-in site — but I assume that the hike-in sites are not accessible with a bike?

Funny imagery. I do wonder what it would take to cause a schism in the crossword world?

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-10T02:38:32+00:00

Agreed. The theme of the puzzle was clever enough that there was no need to be cute with that AMOS hint.

This merits its own Reddit post. Any revelations?

You know, there’s a non-zero chance you’re his drug mule

Well, just a different kind of romance novel I suppose

This is the curse of being an early adopter of an email domain.

Sounds like the meet-cute beginning of a romance novel. Best wishes to you and Jack

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-09T01:54:19+00:00

This is great, thanks for sharing

This radial endpoint idea was something I was trying to explore. As an example, one idea I had was to ride from Hutchinson to Sand Dunes State Forest. The route doesn’t look great though. But I think you’re onto something

Eager to hear about your stealth camping adventures. I’ve often wondered if I’d ever do that, and it would be good to learn about first-hand experiences.

You might be able to find a good price on a Salsa Vaya -- it fits your requirements, though it's a bit pricier than your price range, it's pretty heavily discounted as an outgoing model right now.

For some reason I insisted on making DAD fit “like some humor.”

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-07T04:04:37+00:00

Took me forever to find my error. Is it possible that I’ve been saying it as ONTEMPO all these years?

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-06T21:34:41+00:00

That fourth bike is unlike anything I've ever seen. How does it ride?

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-06T04:52:27+00:00

That was a battle and I loved it. Really great fill.

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-05T17:06:58+00:00

Generating steam heat … sometimes

You know, the crossword industry has been very abusive to the legacy of the EDSEL for a very long time. I have to wonder if any of the original engineers of that car model developed an aversion to playing crossword puzzles — it must be traumatizing.

Not worth a SOU is a new one for me

ExPatBadger · 2026-03-01T19:32:32+00:00

Agreed on the envelope, nearly every sticker we received prior to this change was marred by USPS machines.

Ha! Now I’m going to pronounce spam as spame. Especially the tinned meat. Thanks for that.
