And talking of lost episodes...

... 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

There must be someone out there who wanted to see these two episodes returned above all others, and wished reallyhard. I wonder who it is?

HOORAY! (hooray, what a wonderful day, for I they have found my Doctor Who!)

And I'm so disappointed with my flist, you're the first person who posted about it :D

What was I saying in my other comment?! Which, btw, I posted before I saw this post. It's amazing what turns up! Fingers crossed that Isaac Asimov stuff turns up somehow. ::hugs Lost Spook exuberantly::

I'm quite pleased to have more Troughton, even if it's that one. ("Nothing in the world can stop me now!!")

I'd love to have "The Crusade" in its entirety...

Wow That's Awesome!!

Still squeeing right now - I can just about hope to see all of 'Evil of the Daleks' one day again now!

And more Vicki and Professor Zarloff = Win. My only niggle is my inner cashman bemoaning the knowledge that they'll have to re-release Lost in Time now and I have to buy the new version!

What's interesting is given the way this was found, that guy who owned them might actually have more - he needs to have help looking through all those spools just in case!

The joy of more Troughton is hard to overestimate...
