I was part of the discussion on this on Twitter and was told by no less than Stephen James Walker that the Lost in Time DVD used the studio-only soundtrack by mistake. Judging by the clips posted, the dialogue actually sounds clearer without the additional sound effects!

Mark Ayers did a pretty good job clearing them up for the CD releases. Its been a long time since I played the audio of that story but its a slow story with out the visuals that is for sure. The soundtrack of the audio is still pretty awful.That was the first thing I noticed about it when I first listened to it a couple of years ago.Certainly nowhere near the more pristine soundtracks of other stories. The soundtrack for say,the Web of Fear and Power of the Daleks are incredible. So much so that they didn't need animations for their missing episodes in my opinion,the narrative is easy to follow and immediate. |

And the BBC Radio Collection audio release on CD also, bizarrely, used the same source as the VHS version. So there has never been a release of the as-broadcast version with the sound effects. |

After Wheel in Space, he didn't have any further non-missing episodes (or before Daleks' Master Plan?) |

I remember from a DWM article there was another home recorder who managed an almost complete run from Inside The Spaceship to sometime into the Pertwee era, but the recordings weren't as good as Graham Strong's.

Saying that,I'm listening to The Space Pirates audio on an a more recent Panasonic DVD player and the soundtrack is a lot clearer-almost as if the actual episodes exist. At the moment,episode 1 is remarkably clear and resonant. |
