I have recieved my dvd of Day Of The Daleks today which is very good i was watching the documentary The Unit Family Part 2 and noticed some colour clips from this story and they looked very impressive. So it looks like its hopeful this story will be released in full colour when it come out on dvd. Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMrRCKTIUE4

It's no secret that they tried Colour Recovery but that the results were mixed. It could be that what you've seen were some of the bits that worked well. There is still the problem of Episode One which has no chroma dots.

Really makes you hungry for the whole story in colour, doesn't it! Mind Of Evil is one of my favourite Pertwee (and Who) tales and these clips were great to see in colour. I am very cautiously optimistic that something resembling a full restoration can be attempted, although ep.1 would have to be coloured from scratch (as John pointed out). I won't hold my breath even though it would be galling if it turned out to be the only Pertwee story in b/w when the whole range is finally released. I'm not of the view that it looks somehow better in b/w though - those brief colour clips bring it to life!

Indeed! Even a "best possible colour extraction" as an alternative version (as with Dinosaurs) would be better than nothing, although that still leaves the issue of episode 1...

Glad you all enjoyed those colour clips and the colour recovery for this story has worked very well especially ep2. Although the end of ep 6 suffered from the colour spreading on the screen when a character moved. So yes most of the mind of evil is in colour but ep1 will be a problem but lets wait and see. I believe its coming out on dvd at the end of 2013??
