 **A scheduling error in early '''May 2025''' had [[The Time Monster]] Part 1 on one day, with [[Black Orchid]] Part 2 on the next day, after which came three more Davison serials - [[Time-Flight]], [[Arc of Infinity]], and [[Snakedance]] - then jumping back to the rest of [[The Time Monster]]!
 *Retro aired the remaining Pertwees, then back to Tom Baker - but only as far as [[The Androids of Tara]] part 1 on its daily screenings on Friday '''1 August 2025''' and all of [[The Stones of Blood]] as its Saturday 4-parter "Movie" on '''2 August 2025''' - but that was it.

These episodes are also streaming via Retro's Live Feed app. On Fridays, four eps are screened only at 6pm, with the repeat instead being on Sunday. The first story to air under this new schedule is [[The Daleks]]. (Several stories - including [[An Unearthly Child]] - were skipped, presumably due to rights issues.)

Curiously, when [[The Chase]] part 1 was shown, the usually missing Beatles clip was intact!
 *Only three Troughton serials aired - [[The Tomb of the Cybermen]] (the video of which appeared to be 'slowed down); [[The Mind Robber]] and [[The Seeds of Death]].
-*The schedule changed slightly by the time the selected Pertwee serials were shown - with eight 'new' episodes per night with no repeats for a few weeks, before reverting back to the previous four 'new' + four repeats.

When [[Invasion of the Dinosaurs]] part 1 airs, it's in black and white; for previously airings it was in colour.

Colin Baker returns in '''February'''; Season 22 (skipping [[Attack of the Cybermen]], [[Vengeance on Varos]] and [[Revelation of the Daleks]]) are the 25-minute edits. Two Sylvester McCoy serials are skipped - [[Remembrance of the Daleks]] and [[Ghost Light]].
