Hi,
I was watching Abominable Snowmen animation for the first time including watching the newly remastered original episode 2.
Phenomenal story another Season 5 masterpiece. But what I was gonna say was the on location footage in the episode is some of the best proper HD I’ve ever seen. Other than it being in black and white (I love black+white) it genuinely looks like it was filmed today. Unbelievable! I’m referring to the location scenes with Jamie and Victoria. I love all the HD footage in Season 19 etc but this is even more clear it’s incredible!!!
People were saying some of Season 6 is on film is this what they meant the footage would look like?
What other episodes that aren’t currently out in the collection range will have proper HD scenes like that?
Thanks, fantastic experience

Anybody know??
I’ve heard maybe Five Doctors, Pirate Planet and Invasion of the Dinosaurs might have some?

I believe some of episode two film trims were from 35 mm especially the cave interior scene shot at Ealing Episode One of Krotons and ep 6 of Wheel is all 35mm so they too look glorious

From what I’ve found out over the past week:
A handful of sequences from the Ealing filming for The Daleks’ Master Plan: Episodes 1 and 2. Two 35mm inserts.
A still of the Seine in Paris from The Massacre.
19 shots from The War Machines episodes 3 and 4 exist on 35mm.
A handful of snippets The Power of the Daleks across episode 4, 5 and 6.
A still from The Dominators, episode 1 and The Seeds of Death episode 6.
About 90 seconds from The Space Pirates, episodes 1 and 2. For Model work on 35mm.
Invasion of the Dinosaurs 5 bits on 16mm.
Terror of the Zygons episodes 3 and 4 and some bits from episode 2 on 16mm.
Pyramids of Mars unused model shots.
Invasion of Time has a faded 16mm.
Five Doctors has some location footage.
Awakening, Planet of Fire and Caves of Androzani have 16mm.
I don’t know how accurate this is but it’s what I’ve found out

And obviously all of Spearhead From Space is HD.
And apparently all of the film location work for The Pirate Planet.
Bare in mind a chunk of this stuff I’ve mentioned is with Ian Levine so it’s possible we won’t get it back. No promises

Richard Molesworth's excellent book, Wiped! will fill you in on everything that is known to survive. Photographs don't really count.

Did he sell it back to the BBC?
Or is it still out there somewhere meaning we probably will never get it back?
