Forgive me for nitpicking, but I noticed Jason, Crystal and Zog seem to be lacking stats and images. It might just be my computer acting up again though, in which case I need to hire a Catholic priest and finally get it exorcised.

It might just be my computer acting up again though, in which case I need to hire a Catholic priest and finally get it exorcised. Those are just holding pages at the moment, waiting for the text and stats to be written - don't worry, they'll be completed in due course. While I'm here, I'll also mention that the next few stories I'm going to tackle are: AUDIOS: Arrangements for War Thicker Than Water The Fourth Wall Wirrn Isle NOVELS: Burning Heart

MisterHarry is correct. Just like there are gaps for images in the early pages. You're lucky I'm not publishing the whole working document, which has reams of blank pages

This is looking good. Glad Angela Jennings has not been forgotten.

This is coming along a lot quicker than I expected. It feels like only yesterday the 5th Doctor book came out. Amazing work guys

Yes, I admit I'm keeping a steadier pace rather than chugging through it nearer my imposed deadline, but the real credit goes to MisterHarry who worked on these while I was finishing up the 5th book. I'm just laying out, as quickly as I can, the almost 200 entries he sent me on Day 1!

Utterly off-topic but I found out today that Colin Baker spent a month in Dun Laoghaire forty years ago acting in Doctor in the House. Somehow I feel there's a game there...

This week's update takes us through the letter F in Locations, and adds Rossiter and various villains including Lord Burner in the pages before that.

I'm now working my way through the final batch of stories which haven't yet been claimed: AUDIOS: Catch-1782 I.D./Urgent Calls The Wishing Beast/The Vanity Box The Brood of Erys Last of the Cybermen Her Final Flight After these, I'm not sure whether we're covering the 6th Doctor story from The Worlds of Doctor Who in this sourcebook. I know we said no to spin-offs in which the 6th Doctor makes a guest appearance (saving them for the spin-offs volumes). But this is more a crossover event than a spin-off - what's your view, Siskoid?

I don't think they are necessarily 6th Doc specific.

I don't think they are necessarily 6th Doc specific. In that case, I just need to give my last few write-ups a final polish and they'll be done. Other than that, there's a new 6th Doctor trilogy starting this month from Big Finish, which I'll pick up as they're released: May - The Lure of the NomadJune - Iron BrightJuly - Hour of the CybermenAccording to the blurb, The Lure of the Nomad features a new companion, space pilot Mathew Sharpe. But as there's been no pre-publicity about him, I'm a tad suspicious. Iron Bright features a young Isambard Kingdom Brunel, ideal for inclusion in the sourcebook And Hour of the Cybermen sees the return of the '80s UNIT team which was introduced in April's 5th Doctor audio. Lt-Col Lewis Price and Lt Daniel Hopkins will most likely be added to this sourcebook if there's time!

I wonder if the consequences of losing those "urgently-needed medical supplies" will be explored sometime?
It's a pity it's a young IKB; the graphics of him (the Wolverine of the early Victorians) from The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage would be great...
Congratulations on approaching the finish of another wonderful EU sourcebook.

There's some stuff about Mathew Sharpe here. Ah, that does ring a bell now that I read it again! An older IKB appears in one of the 8th Doctor novels - Reckless Engineering, I think - so he may well deserve a second write-up. That version is in a parallel timeline, IIRC.

My busy Spring schedule has been cleared, and I'm starting work on the layouts again. A number of Companion/Allies have been added.

inDesign, that's correct!

Quick update to say we're in the final stretch (less than 20 entries left to write or lay out, plus adv seeds, etc.). August will be the release month!

This one's been a massive endeavour! At around 350 pages, it's bigger even than the 5th Doctor's volume and will probably turn out to be the biggest single sourcebook we produce. Look out for such delights as Frobisher, the Viyrans, Nimrod and the Forge, stained-glass Daleks and Cybermen from the future, new incarnations of the Rani, Iris Wildthyme and (perhaps) the Master, and lots lots more!
