This recon is terrific fun! It captures the spirit of the segment and era wonderfully! What matter it looks cheap and cheerful, it's the fun and imagination that counts! And in many ways, these are similar to the pictures we would have had back in the day! Great fun recon, hugely entertaining, very well done, thanks!

@longhairfan Actually the story WAS repeated 06/08/68 to 06/22/68 and again 07/13/68 to 08/03/68 after which it was THEN wiped. Part of the reason was the BBC had gone to color and viewed B&W episodes as nonviable. Also Terry Nation (the Dalek's creator) had been trying since 1966 to get a Dalek TV series going but part of the agreement to do was the BBC had to to stop the sale of Dalek episodes overseas. These two things coming together resulted in the wiping

@longhairfan What's funny is that this story was repeated in 1968 after season 5, the only 60s story for that to happen.

But most of the time it just didn't happen.

@AnaiBendai The stills that exist are 'telesnaps' done by John Cura who was hired to take photographs of the episode during transmission. So these are actual pictures from the episode itself and about 70 were made per episode. 36 missing episodes have no telesnaps however.

The audio only survives because it was recorded on transmission, by fans as a way of keeping the programme for themselves. Fortunately fan audio recordings survive for ALL the missing episodes but the quality is variable.

Very interesting reconstruction. Where did you get all the stills of this lost episode? Why are there so many stills of an episode that was erased? One more question - how is it that the BBC still has the audio tracks of these episodes but not the video? Weren't they integrated onto the same tape?
