Jon Pertwee Off Screen Cine Film

[Simon Broad]

Hi there,

Just wondering probaly not, but are there any off air cine film recordings from the Jon Pertwee era like what was shown for the Troughton and Hartnell era on the Lost In Time Boxset.

I know the quality wouldnt be brilliant but it would be great if their was some colour footage of the mind of evil, ambassadors of death etc.

Thanks

Simon

There's stuff from The Daemons, I believe, plus of course the Sea Devils footage.

Do you know if there is there anything from Ambassadors Of Death, Mind Of Evil or Invasion Of The Dinosaurs?

The only one that might be slightly beneficial would be Mind Of Evil 1 - I think everything else has chroma dots.

I assume that Simon is referring to footage taken from the television as opposed to anything else. In that case then The Daemons is the only one I've ever heard of for Pertwee, although that's in b/w. With the smallish amount of colour televisions around in 1970/71, you'd be very lucky indeed to come across colour off-air footage.

Yes, iI do mean the footage which was taken on the television at the time. It would of just been nice if someone had recorded footage of a tv like The Mind Of Evil to see a bit in colour. Oh well. Thanks Simon

Do You Know about The Mind of the Evil colour clip? About six minutes of discontinuous footage of episode 6 was video recorded in colour from an American broadcast in 1977. Its shown on the end of the VHS release of the story.

Hi there, Yes i do know about those clips I have owned the video and they are very good clips it just would of been good if there were anymore colour clips from the other episdoes but i believe Mind Of Evil is getting released in 2013 fully restored to colour.
