I cant talk for Ian as I don't even know him personally. However he appears to me the kind of guy who is open with his thoughts and very sensitive to rejection. Or being told he's wrong... He may not like being told he's wrong, but at least he acknowledges it, and doesn't seem the sort of chap who would write a Guide Book just to push his POV about how and why he's right.

The thing is, he doesn't acknowledge it! That was the point of my comment. That 3-hour podcast interview he did last year more or less was his "guide book" in which he did "push his POV"!

Everyone is entitled to their POV and I think most of us think our POV is correct. Once one realizes they're wrong, then they change their POV and now believe they're right again.
Im not one who thinks they have all the answers, but its amazing how many in the real world feel they're right... even when I have more training in the area of question.
One thing Ive noticed is that those who are more financially independent have less need to pretend to adapt to other's way of thinking or be politically correct.. I don't know if that applies to Ian or not, but Ive noticed that in some more independent friends.

The point is that some people will never admit they're wrong, even going to absurd lengths to cling onto the idea that something they know to be false is somehow "right"! This is not directed at anyone in particular. And, unless this is seriously o/t, are you saying you have more training in the area of Doctor Who Missing Episodes than most others?

No.. just in my area of business people think they know more than me sometimes. Wish I did know more than others regarding missing episodes.. then I could tell Paul where to go to find em

I just wanted to say how much I loved Ian's recon of episodes 3 and 4 on the Planet of Giants DVD.That,together with the behind the scenes feature that went with it were both wonderful.I especially loved that guy who did the Billy Hartnell voice for the recon-hilarious!I don't know whether that was meant to be serious or a piss-take!Ian should be proud that he had the interest and ability to delve into such an obscure area of Dr.Who's history and produce something truly entertaining.

John Guilor? I thought he was superb and really captured Hartnell.

The MP3s are all on the Mission to the Unknown disc from the original set. You'll need to put the CD in your computer drive and look at the files on the disc to access them. As noted above though, they are narrationless. Do the rest of the CD releases also have the unnarrated soundtrack on them? I've been looking to buy one of the new boxsets, but I'd like to know whether only the narrated versions were available on them. Sorry if this has been asked before, but I don't have time to go looking through 44 pages of threads

None of the box sets contain versions without narration unfortunately. A select few of the individual releases did though, I believe Marco Polo was also one of them but I don't know whether any others did.

Thanks for letting me know. I've been wondering for a few years, just haven't been bothered to find out

Marco Polo DID have narration-by William Russell and rather wonderful it was too.However,it was in no way obtrusive and I can clearly hear Derren Nesbit's wonderful Tegana in my mind,together with all the other sights and sounds that the excellent soundtrack conjures up.Superb.

How far did Ian get with Masterplan? Or has he not told us? I've seen the clips on his You Tube compilation (from episode 1 I think?): and they look very professional.
Also wondering if his Shada animation comprises complete episodes; or simply fills in those scenes with no original camera footage from 1979? (I'm guessing the latter.)
