And talking of lost episodes...

[thisbluespirit]

... I'm sure you've all seen the news by now

*faints*

(I have to say I'm a bad person, because when I saw it go up on my flist, I thought it was a joke because of which two episodes it was... :lol:)

Burninated DW:
108 106 episodes.

(I linked to the Radio Times article, because what exactly does the guy mean at the end, hmm?)

ETA: I am slightly out of shock and it is real. So let there be joy: THERE IS MORE WILLIAM HARTNELL AND PATRICK TROUGHTON IN THE WORLD! I have already seen a picture of a Rill!

Vicki!

And, most importantly, more Ben and Polly! ♥. And I would a million times rather see a duff ep than try to listen to it.

*JOY*

Also, since nothing seems impossible now, I shall choose to interpret those last words as "oh, yes, I am on the trail of the Power of the Daleks" because why not?

ETA2: Also what sort of film collector who lives in England - in Hampshire - picks up some Doctor Who and doesn't even think to look on the internet for which episodes are missing? I don't know. I think if I was a film collector I would be checking that sort of thing. (Oh, who cares?)

ETA3: THERE ARE CLIPS ON YOUTUBE. Look at Patrick Troughton. It would be worth it if they'd just found this minute: Underwater Menace clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OTPKZLeO1U

Ha! Actually for a long time I thought it was Katy Manning who said it (only to remember that Jo never faced the Cybermen so it seemed a little weird)! In any case I'm gonna love seeing it again (cause I really did think Red Post Boxes were good subs for Daleks).

I would be happy with a great many thing - the Crusade being complete (its my favourite pure historical, though I've yet to see Aztecs), Power or Evil, either of the Yeti stories (particularly Ep2 of Web of Fear with Colonel Lethbridge!), Moonbase or Wheel (first Zoe!)... just the thought that some more stuff could be out there and it's believable for the first time in years is very exciting. :D

I have a problem with that one because the TV version was v different to the video version, and I had both on tape (one recorded for a while), so I can't remember whether the bit where Toyah Wilcox says that is the video version or not. But I do know it was her. I promise. ;-D)

I've learnt after yesterday: I will be happy no matter what they find, as long as they find it. Although now that I think about it, I would love to see Polly doing her orange seller thing in The Highlanders...
