"No, Malcolm. You've misheard. Jenna Stannis is a Space *Pirate*..." 🤣

Here are the contacts. I had a nasty feeling that Reach would begin dumping vast swathes of negative libraries when they started to take over multiple local newspapers.

I bought several of their Shada photos years ago. I’ve still got the contact sheet of all of them somewhere.

What "previous upscaling method" has The Android Invasion been through that you can point to as being any different?

You see, I find all this very disingenuous. The sign would take up 2.1 x 1.7mm on the original 16mm frame and then be transferred on a not-great telecine machine. On the original Quad tape, the sign is barely any different to this because the detail simply isn't there. I find this perfectly legible.

What about it?

That's as transmitted and it's called undergrowth! 🤣

It's actually quite a Sutekh thing to say!

I don't think they'd have any interest in taking them, to be honest and sometimes scripts are no help at all. It wouldn't surprise me if a percentage of it is done by running the dialogue through a program rather than by a real person anyway.

No, we've always done it and we flag up hundreds of corrections along the way. It may be that we flagged it and they accidentally missed it during whilst correcting all the others or it could have been that we just couldn't work out what was really said as there's only a rehearsal script for Part 2.

2/2 - This one is from the BBC trail for the week of Doctor Who repeats (Planet of Evil and The Sontaran Experiment) in July 1976. Sarah sees Styre for the first time and is supposed to think its Commander Linx, the Sontaran she encountered in The Time Warrior. Instead, she just goes…

2/2 - All bangers, the flame is revived with a Little Demon from Standard, whilst Bradwell's Mighty Atom and Thunderclap were given to the Sisterhood by the Doctor as they leave. Glad to be of service!

That's one of the shots from the day at Denham Aerodrome.

Pip and Jane were interviewed in DWM 552 and mentioned the story, with Pip confirming that they had never actually done any work on it. Ian Levine insists that they were commissioned purely as a cover so that Eric Saward could write the story... 🙄

Oh, there are certainly commissioning documents relating to Gallifrey. They were commissioned on 1 March 1985 to write four episodes. They were paid for Episode 1, but when the idea was quashed, that payment went towards their writing of The Ultimate Foe (aka Vervoids) a year later.

There's virtually nothing about unmade stories (maybe the odd reference here or there) other than the contractual information for the writers involved. Just to clarify, what story are you referring to? 🙂

Will we get a "Yartek, Leader of the alien Voord" in there?
