I've mentioned this a couple of times but I thought I would start a new thread to hopefully get a full answer to this. Is it known exactly which stories used the actual footage of the cliff-hangers from the previous episode?
I would love to have a full list of clips of reprises and cliffhangers that contain footage from the missing episodes. I know about The Space Museum Ep 1 having footage from The Crusade and I know about The Daleks Ep 2 having footage from the untransmitted first episode of the story. If anyone else knows any more cases it would be really helpful. Thanks.
It's been a very long time since I last posted here (as a guest in the pre-registration days), but I have enjoyed dropping by from time-to-time to catch up on what people have been discussing. However, I think I might be able to help out a little here, as a long time ago I started compiling just such a list.
Here's what I've got, with sources supplied where possible. I hope it helps. Perhaps some others can fill in the blanks or correct where appropriate. I've picked out the ones that it seems are definitely (or highly likely to be) footage from episodes that are missing in blue.
