@KingRedRichard Cheeky! Lol!

Too bad nobody actually has a TARDIS. :) Just go to the BBC and grab the episodes before they can be wiped and come back to announce "Missing Doctor Who episodes found!" :)

Grab "At last the 1948 show" too while you're at it.

Cheers, you should check out my other uploads for more in the same vein. I am at the moment working on an upgraded version of this video. It will include the last 7 minutes of the 7th episode of The Evil of the Daleks. So watch this space and subscribe!

That should read "climactic battle scene." Skaro was destroyed, but not by climate change!

[StephenHP62]

I vividly recall watching "Evil of the Daleks" when was broadcast in the late 1960s. It was absolutely brilliant. The climatic battle scene in Episode 7 was unforgetable.

It's a crime against Skaro that the BBC should have destroyed the films. Those responsible should face the wrath of the Daleks--total annihilation!

[android65mar]

And is my reconstruction anything like your memory of the episode?

[StephenHP62]

Yes, it does a superb job, especially with the use of the original audio.

BTW a disturbing aspect of the original "Evil," were the death throes of exterminated Daleks. The hapless Daleks would spin manically as lots of foam issued from their headless casings. Striking too was the dark, gloomy setting of the Dalek City, against which the bright flash of exploding Dalek turrets made a startling contrast.

Great homage to the finest Dr Who tale "in the history of the Universe."

Cheers. You ought to check out my other vids, esp the other Evil reconstruction and Reddy for Anything.

Yeah, what you describe ties in with what I can remember (but I would have been either two or three at the time so hard to say how much I can remember). I can remember screaming hysterical Daleks and the foam. It was scarey and exhilirating at the same time; I think also I can remember a voice, probably the emperors, but I couldn't remember what he was saying. Until I listened to the audios years later.

I hope the episodes are found. I don't think they will be considering the age- bout 40 odd years. Best keep searching...

[android65mar]

I think that's why the idea of reconstructing them has taken off recently. But you never know, I understand the original version of Godzilla turned up recently after over half a century, so you never know.

[britfrenir]

Yes it is good that they are being reconstructed.

[Bez1960]

No, you are correct. The BBC had a junking spree and the Dr Who episodes were decimated, but the really sad part is that the ones that are completely gone are the real treasures of that era...The Daleks Masterplan, The Power of he Daleks, The Evil of the Daleks (I know a few episodes escaped to be released later onto compilation videos & DVDs, but it's a crying shame what the BBC did and quite frankly they should be punished!)...

the story wasnt wiped, it got destroyed in the werehouse fire

[android65mar]

Hi, first I ever heard of that; as far as I was aware it was wiped as were many other stories from the Troughton and Hartnell eras. According to wikipedia episodes 1 and 3-7 were wiped in the late sixties. Now I don't need to be told that wikipedia is not the word of gospel, but that would generally fit in with previous explanations. But please if you know differently please tell more.

hi, well my father was alive when it was on tv and what he told me was that after they were on television somehow there was a fire in the place were the stories where kept and the hartnell and troughton ones that survive to date are very lucky to be here

An article in Doctor Who Magazine said the BBC destroyed them and they kept some to show as an example of some of their works. This happed in the 1975 or as late as 1977. I saw in an 1981 issue there was a list of lost episodes and asked for any one who had a copy to let the BBC make a copy. Some did turn up and one even was found in a church. There was a list of episodes in "Doctor Who A Celebration".
