Awesome footage, if only it could of been longer. As was stated before, at this rate of Power clips turning up we will have the complete story by the year 2020, the year this story was set in. (Just a little Joke ).

The new power clip is on the official BBC site The explanation for this is a bit sparse. Is the programme Sunday Past Times the thing I've occasionally seen presented by one of the Sawalha sisters? It's more information on Sunday Past Times (eg who scripted and researched it?) which is required so that we can see how the clip serendipitously turned up. Call for Mr Bignell!! |

Serendipity is the word. The "Sunday Past Times" (presented by Nadia Sawalha) researcher would just have looked for things to do with 'the future' by searching the BBC's Infax computer cataloguing. This cataloguing didn't mention the DW clip, so they wouldn't have known it was going to turn up. The way the material was presented on SPT was pretty un-choosy, they just showed chunks of the "Tomorrow's World" item and "Towards Tomorrow" (which had the "Out of the Unknown" clips)...

Interesting. I wonder what would turn up if you used "Marco Polo" or "Highlanders." |

Is it possible to find out all the episodes that were loaned out for this purpose? or is the paperwork not that good?

If there is any paperwork in DW production files relating to clips being used, Andrew Pixley and others would have seen it by now and chased it up. If there is paperwork in the files of other programmes - that is a huge task as there are dozens of programmes that *might* have used clips from DW (or other missing programmes). It would take forever to do that (and you would have to go to Caversham and spend a lot of time on what is probably a wild goose chase). And then you would probably find that the programme some clip was used in has itself been junked... |

Doctor Who aside, it would be fantastic to see extracts of other series, such as Doomwatch for which only one clip survives from a missing episode [to my knowledge] - the last three minutes and thirty seconds of "Survival Code". Mind you, given the choice, that is the one clip I'd choose to see anyway! I can't really think of any programmes that might have used clips from Doomwatch, especially as it was a series aimed at adults, which rules out Blue Peter and the like. Points of View, perhaps? |

Unfortunately there are *very* few editions of "Points of View" from its first run, and most of the ones that do exist are from 1962! "Late Night Line-Up"/"Line-Up" which might have been another one to show clips is also pretty thin on the ground as regards complete programmes in the early 70s, so is unlikely to yield anything.

That's typical, isn't it? I can understand why such programmes were wiped as even today they have no repeat or commerical value that I can see. I'm not suggesting that it doesn't matter that they're gone though, but better them than something with a fanbase and commerical potential? (Or wasn't it a case of "this or this?", but rather "take as much as you can carry"?) |
