Another Rumour to Mill Over...

An old friend of the family (Aren't they all!!!) has recently passed on. Has left me with approx. 20 cans of 8/16mm D.Who Footage. Most of it is B&W Hartnell/Troughton stuff filmed direct from the TV much like the stuff on the Tenth Planet release . Before the days of home video. I'm quite sure 99% its exsits.

Who should I speak to in regards to whether of not its "missing" and if there is any value in such stuff?

IE: Who can sign off on its authenticity?

I'm in Australia, Melbourne.

Cheers

Interesting, although as with all rumours we should take a wait and see approach.

Sorry to ask,but have you heard of a guy caled Bernie? I only ask 'cause when I was in Melbourne last year, I spoke to a rather excitable young lad who was shown some ...Who by his uncle Bernie & wanted to know if all of 'Worlds End' was out on video. he had seen part of this episode (in bad quality) & wanted to see the rest, He also asked about 'Death Of The Daleks'(sic),'Space & The Pirates'(sic) & 'The Minds of Evil.' Maybe he just saw bad quality parts of the existing parts,but interesting nevertheless.

No, I hadn't heard of Bernie.

I get really annoyed when these people don't remember the exact names of the episodes. I mean, how hard is it to forget "The Space Pirates"?

I mean honestly...

Very. Although with the help of counselling, many people who saw it in 1969 are now leading productive, almost normal, lives.
Sadly, there are some tougher cases, who even to this sit in rest homes, rocking back and forth muttering "Why? Why?"

And....

The entire collection is of episodes which are already in the archives!

[Brad Phipps]

Yes, funny that. A rumour that turned out to be true, only be ruined by the fact the episodes in question already existed...

you should contact the restoration team they take great pride in a find like that even if it is off the tv it would fill a small gap in history
