Technically this is about Out of the Unknown and not Doctor Who but I hope admins will allow me to post this thread here. In the late 60's Out of the Unknown made an episode called Get off my Cloud which featured monsters including Daleks. There is a video which gives a rundown of the episode here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O90k3g8VPgcLike many bits of great old television, it was... (Drumroll)... wiped from the archives. The video in the link shows a script at 22:34. Does this mean that the original script still exists? If I can never watch the episode then is there somewhere online where I can read the script? Also, I thought that the guys who remade Mission to the Unknown did a very good job. I know it's a big ask but should someone nudge those guys to remake this as well?

It doesn't contain the script, but Kal's OOTU book contains a very detailed synopsis of this episode (and all other other ones!), it's available here: www.tvbrain.info/shop/books/out-of-the-unknown-non-uk-postage

I always presumed the three daleks in this would be ones last seen in Evil ie Silver with blue sensors but wonder if one had a black dome

According to the Dalek 6388 website ('Evil of the Daleks' and 'Five Years in the Cold' pages) three Dalek casings had their domes painted black for Evil of the Daleks. The last time a black-domed Dalek was photographed after this story was at an appearance in Cardiff October 1967. After this - "On 8th August 1968 three of the six available Dalek props arrived at Ealing studios" for filming Out of the Unknown. Could be that a black-domed one was chosen out of those six, if there were any by then. www.dalek6388.co.uk/five-years-in-the-cold/

If there are photos of the Dalek there I'm sure they could figure out with Dalek it was

If any publicity photos were taken on set none have been found to this day.
