Needless to say, I'm not going to know anything until it's posted here*, or I finally get the DVD release! * NOTE - I'm really not bothered about spoilers being posted here after the fact. Even if this thread remains spoiler free, I won't be able to avoid them on other internet pages

I won't say what it is but will just say it's something that has been in practically every story since Nov 23rd 1963. So in truth it's not much of a spoiler really. |

This is purely speculation but it will be interesting if it turns out to be true. The Stenza will be recurring villains and a race from a Colin Baker story will also feature in this series but nobody except fans will remember them so the majority will think them a new race. |
