- 'Not Technically Doctor Who' Week
- We take a sideways journey through time and space to visit some not-exactly-Doctor Who-but-who-cares content! From ER (starring Alex Kingston and others), The Thick of It (starring Peter Capaldi) and This is Jinsy (starring David Tennant), here we’ll watch some of the other things Doctor actors and companions got up to in their careers. Whether you consider them canon to Doctor Who is up to you! (We definitely do...)

- Adrift (Torchwood) and Death of the Doctor (The Sarah Jane Adventures)
- From the Worlds of Doctor Who come two spin-off episodes! We first journey to the world of Torchwood, with Adrift, where Gwen Cooper investigates disappearances in Cardiff, all linking to the space-time rift at the heart of Torchwood. What is Captain Jack hiding, and will Gwen want to find out the truth at all? Then, in Death of the Doctor, if it wasn’t obvious from the title, the Doctor has been declared dead! Is this true? Well, Sarah Jane and former companion Jo Grant (now Jones) are determined to find out, even if the alien undertakers, the Shansheeth have other ideas...

- Reconstruction Discussions
- Sadly, the BBC in the 1970s did the unthinkable and scrapped many Doctor Who episodes, and despite the amazing escapades of many fans, who have restored episodes to the archives, some remain missing. We will be discussing the various elements of the missing episodes that survive today –soundtracks, telesnaps, scenes, and the official and unofficial attempts to resurrect these stories and save them from the quicksand of time...

- Games Night & Committee Meeting
- To celebrate the end of a challenging academic year, we are throwing a (virtual) party! Games galore, with Doctor Who twists, featuring your old favourites, but this time without the risk of being teleported onto a Dalek ship to face certain death. Feel free to come along and suggest your own games that we can play (think Jackbox or skribblio!). We will then have our termly Committee Meeting, where you can decide with us what’ll be happening in Michaelmas!
