I only ask because the other night I had a dream that five episodes of Marco Polo and all but three episodes of The Daleks’ Master Plan (episodes 4, 7, and one other (not episode 11 or 12, which had definitely been found) were still missing) had been found and released on DVD. It was a good dream. Sad waking up, though.

Not that I can remember. Plenty of people daydream about it though; it's called the omnirumour.  |

A very interesting subject for a thread - incidentally, I was going to set up a thread like this very soon because I too have had a dream about a missing Doctor Who episode! It was that dream that eventually led me to create an account on here in the first place.
About this time last year, I dreamt of that climactic final battle in The Evil of the Daleks. It was such a thrill to 'watch' it, and so vivid that I am now working on an animation to try and replicate what I saw. My Dalek Emperor avatar is taken from a test shot of the animation. I remember the neck of one Dalek looked to have caved in on itself. There was a constant flashing light, not from the Emperor, but in other scenes featuring the battling Daleks. The metallic tubing which comprised the set walls was unmistakably from Evil. I remember the silver Daleks making their way into the Emperor's chamber. I briefly saw a massive explosion towards the end, and I saw the Emperor dying in the darkness with smoke having filled the room. All of this was before I saw the comments of others on this forum who have recalled scenes from the 'Final End'.
One curious thing about the dream was that it ended with an on-screen identity that distinctly read 'Tehran Broadcasting Corporation', clearly the capital of Iran, with a less distinct logo on it. I was amazed to find that the National Iranian Radio & Television company had pretty much exactly the same identity as the one featured in my dream, despite me not knowing at the time of the organisation's existence. Interestingly, Iran did receive the first two episodes of Marco Polo, the existence of which is unknown, and the American Armed Forces TV Network did operate a television channel in Tehran - there has been talk of missing Doctor Who prints making their way round the network, leading to the supposed Taiwan discoveries of 2013. |

Are you getting Iraq & Iran mixed up there!? |
