People have speculated/begged about Big Finish doing a multi-Master story; or, rather, a Beevers/Macqueen story, since those are the only Masters that they've had access to recently. However, the fact that BF have admitted they have a licence right up to and including Matt Smith's era extends the possibilities somewhat. John Simm has, I believe, expressed a wish to play the Master again; and BF have worked with Derek Jacobi as well.
For that matter, they could easily do Macqueen vs Hurt, or Jacobi vs Hurt. Or both.
(But I'm still holding out for Beevers vs Jayston).

McQueen, Beevers and Gomez? They'd call Beevers "Skeletor" McQueen "Giggles" Gomez "Messy" and totally fail to get along. It's be fantastic!

Agree. A multi-master story could have mileage though with a good enough story. Thank goodness BF don't have rights to Missy

How does jacobi vs hurt work? The Doctor didnt recognize the master in Jacobi form Well, post-War Doctors wanted to forget being the 'War Doctor' so it's possible that they tried to wipe most memories of the Time War from their mind. Maybe something stopped them from moving everything, though? Maybe you can't alter memories of one particular moment in time twice and because the War Doctor experienced a multi-Doctor event before he pressed the Moment, his memory was already altered so the next three Doctors wouldn't remember not pressing the button?

How does jacobi vs hurt work? The Doctor didnt recognize the master in Jacobi form Maybe a younger Jacobi with facial hair would work, like in that Scream of the Shalka thing? I'm quite happy to ignore that detail in Utopia if it means having John Hurt and Derek Jacobi in the same room together. Continuity be damned!

How does jacobi vs hurt work? The Doctor didnt recognize the master in Jacobi form He forgot. Bear in mind that Time Lords are supposed to be able to recognise each other whatever they look like. If that can be overlooked, so can previous encounters between the two.

How does jacobi vs hurt work? The Doctor didnt recognize the master in Jacobi form Unless it's a young Jacobi. in fact, I'd love a story where their roles are effectively reversed, the Master s out saving lives and thr Doctor wants to destroy.

I think a young Jacobi complete with beard would be enough for the the Tenth Doctor not to recognise the old Professor Yana. Why would he connect the two? The voice might be the same, but not the attitude behind it.

Nah. I think we need a separate Master for the war.

I'm not sure how a multi-master story would work, not saying it couldn't, but how do you prevent one Master from betraying the other? Perhaps you don't... OK, how do you get them to agree to anything if they are "co-operating" they both have ego's the size of several large galaxies combined, it would be difficult to see one accept a lesser role. Hmmmm....

They definitely wouldn't work together. that's why the script would be key - each master having his own agenda, working against the others, or pretending to collaborate while planning a double cross

Ah, but he wasn't a Time Lord, was he? He was a human. And UNIT dominion seems to establish this recognition isn't very reliable

Possibly because Macqueen was the first of a new regeneration cycle?
But other than that, given that the Doctor has run into so many people that looked just like himself (or like a future incarnation or himself), I don't think he would be that concerned that someone he meets who is clearly human also looks like an older version of one of the Master's incarnations.

But he should have known it wasn't himself. I'm listening to it again and found a brief line at the end of part3 that blames th dimensional anomalies for confusing the senses
