How will this work with boundary zone tickets then? I know from
experience of these at Victoria they do not open the gates (which makes
sense becuase they are valid from the zone boundary) and you have to
use your Oyster instead.

If you have a boundary ticket then you must also have an Oyster season
including Z1, which will open all gates within its appropriate zones
without recoursing to prepay, regardless of whether there is a touch-in
to go with each touch-out.

According to
http://www.atoc.org/traveltrade/manu...ionk-part2.pdf, I can
use a boundary zone extension with a one-day travelcard, including a
2-6 travelcard. Can't remember if these can be loaded onto Oyster.
But this combination isn't valid to zone 1, so you might end up paying
£5 instead of the difference between a 2-6 and a 1-6 travelcard.
