I rolled an 83, which if I am not mistaken gives us Fury from the deep episode 4. Nice! From my top two missing stories! And probably one of the best episodes from that story too.

Sorry, Ian. And today I got 88: The Wheel in Space: 2I still can't get me head around this country thing... Wheel in Space had a total of four prints screened overseas: one in Australia, one in Hong Kong/Singapore/Nigeria, one in New Zealand, and one in Gibraltar. Since there are four sets of prints (four points where an episode could be recovered) you generate a number between 0 and 4 with the 0 representing a return from a private collector in the UK. That way the generator will always generate a number that correlates with one of the print sets.

Finally got one that no one else did. I rolled a 7 for episode and a 4 for country so that means I found Marco Polo episode 7 from Mauritius. That bloke with The Crusade episode 4 must have had another print on him.

This is odd. I just rolled again and got 83, which if I am not mistaken, is Fury episode 3, which makes for the second pair of consecutive missing episodes I have got!

Roll #8...
64
The Faceless Ones: 4
Country? I think I've got my head around this one: New Zealand got the fourth (and final) print of this, but it was returned to UK in 1970. Therefore the recovery came from a private collector who nicked it from the returns bin. Yeah? CHur...

What a pity Wimbledon's announcement didn't bring a missing episode surprise... Never mind the new Dr an announcement at Wimbledon on the missing episode front would have pleased this fan more...expect the unexpected ..if there is anything

I got 14. The Exploding Planet. Well - it's ok, and all things considered could win the sweepstake given that it was one of the last stories to be junked, but so many more I would rather find.
