You know …
I’m something of a Dr Who fan: and have been for most of my life.
Like many others, I’m aware that, during the 1960s, and early 70s, the BBC would junk episodes: mostly so they could re-use the (then) expensive video tape the episodes were on, but also to create space in the archives.
One of the noticeably missing stories? Has been The Power of the Daleks. The story’s important, in part, because it’s a missing Dalek story. But also because it’s Patrick Troughton’s first full story as the Second Doctor.
It’s been missing for decades: and no-one knows when it’ll be found.
You might ALSO be aware that the BBC’s found SOME episodes of missing stories — The Invasion springs to mind — and released them: replacing the missing instalments with animated versions.
Something’s happened. Someone has leaked what looks like a clip of The Power of the Daleks: made by the same animation firm that’s animated other missing parts.
This piece …
It looks incredibly well made, if it’s not official.
If it IS … ? If it is a leaked official piece? I’d be seriously interested in seeing the completed release.
Troughton’s first story is key to the show’s history …
