youtu.be/CFq8YqhzxOs?si… Here is my latest video, a cleaned up version showcasing how an open-ended regeneration might have worked. Big thank you to @Dyloneth for the ending theme edit used in this video. Hope you all enjoy! Please feel free to share around! #DoctorWho

@Lenken215 It’s already on iPlayer

@MCFilms2018 How many decades until the BBC releases it to the general public. 😢

Okay, I’m very excited! Spur of the moment thing and I’m glad I did :)

#Arsenal when should people get to the parade for?

@ManningOfficial Hi Katy! 🤩 I’ll definitely have to check out some of his older work! Thank you for the recommendations! Hope you’re well ☺️

@MCFilms2018 Marvellous Peter & brilliant Dougie , best TV director I've ever worked with , big on who of course , but look at some of his other work like the Sweeney especially once he & Fred Hamilton joined up , fantastic ❤️❤️

Peter Purves giving VERY high praises to Douglas Camfield, and I can’t help but agree, the best 60s who director in my opinion #DoctorWho

@filmisfabulous @atruedrwhofan Thank you to all involved, for all that you’ve done, are doing, and will continue to do ❤️❤️+🟦

Another Successful Daleks’ Event Film is Fabulous! would like to thank everyone who attended the Daleks’ Master Plan event in Manchester yesterday. It was a wonderful evening, and Peter Purves was on great form.

@Maraneje1 Thank you :)

@MCFilms2018 Beautiful

I need an arsenal tattoo inspo

@filmisfabulous @TobyHadoke @purves_peter @HOME_mcr What a night! Thank you everyone ✌🏻 #DoctorWho

@atruedrwhofan I actually knew a few people who worked on the UCLAN recon and I could have cried that that wasn’t me 😢 I’m hoping we can get evil of the Daleks back? As I feel that’ll be an underrated gem in live action, even if I adore the animation! Or Marco Polo, that’s a huge scale story

@MCFilms2018 I'd be down for that 😂 we watched the recon recently. It's so good, and Marc Corey is 🔥 that also needs to be seen on a big screen

My signed photo from Peter Purves. What a lovely man and so happy to see everyone #DoctorWho

@atruedrwhofan Oh if it was available I’d have sat through all 13, including the UCLAN recon, have a panel in between each, even with the feast of Steven 😂 but that’s asking for the impossible? It would have been around 14 hours long at that point 😂😂

@MCFilms2018 It really felt like an event didn't it? I said to my friend we'd have sat through the entire thing if we could. Everyone, including the Daleks, felt on another level. The way the black Dalek stares down Chen. You can feel it really wants to kill him. Episode Three is just golden

@atruedrwhofan You can see Hartnell bouncing off of the cast here, really felt like an event rather than just a usual episode, there seems to be a definite energy from the story, the cast are on fire 🔥 Their back and forth was very funny to watch! Episode 3 just works REALLY well 🤩

@MCFilms2018 Oh I love that. Peter throwing shade at the current series 😂 honestly I agree. Hartnell was wonderful with the regulars, especally Katarina 🥺 and oh god yes there was definite shades of the future with the Doctor and Brett 🤣 Will you shut up! Now will you shut up sir! 🤣🤣

@atruedrwhofan He said it was genuinely touching working with her again and that the new console was “too big” 😂 episode 3 might be my new favourite S3 hartnell performance ✌🏻 I think the bickering between WH and NC definitely set the wheels in motion for the Brig/Doctor in the future 😂

@MCFilms2018 Aw that's so sweet. He and Maureen work so well together. I'm so happy Tales reunited them. Episode Three is a gem isn't it? and yes it's so funny. I knew "What's wrong with Grandpa?" would get a laugh 😂 oh yes. Both this and Web Of Fear are Douglas and he was a gift to both.

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous (2) and as we know, there have been film cans found where they’ve just turned to liquid inside due to improper storage. It’s an incredibly delicate medium, and I’d rather they be recovered properly than not at all! I collect big finish cds, the amount I have still sealed is mad

@MCFilms2018 @filmisfabulous I see. I guess that explains they weren't returned sooner. (I'd say it's a strange hobby to collect old films and never watch them, but I've got a few DVDs and Blu-rays I've never watched!) Any indication how/where the collector acquired these missing episodes?

An update from @filmisfabulous regarding new episode discoveries of #DoctorWho which may prove useful to some!

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous Unfortunately they had no recollection of how they acquired it at the time that FIF got in contact, which is a real shame but I’m just very thankful they did! I think the difficulty with film is the fragility of time. FIF stores film in temperature controlled environments (1/2)

@taraAFCx Now

How early do you need to get to a pub around the Emirates tomorrow?!

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous (3) as explain in part one. A lot of collectors purchase in bulk to simply archive media, rather than chase specific titles. Think buying a large box of dvds at a car boot sale to be a physical media collector but not realising there’s an extremely rare dvd in the bottom

@MCFilms2018 @filmisfabulous I think for the point of view of locating more DW Missing Episodes, it would be incredibly useful to know (1) how the recently returned episodes ended up in that collection, (2) whether the owner knew he had them and (3) why weren't they returned whilst the owner was alive.

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous (2) as I explain, a lot of owners didn’t know what they had/have. Due to film canisters being mislabelled, the surviving film isn’t always correct. We held the film canister one of the episodes was found in, however it was labelled as another episode entirely.

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous So they did tough in that. (1) the owner at the end was very ill so didn’t actually remember and moved his entire apartment and belonging into his garage due to falling multiple times and having head injuries, hence why FIF didn’t act when he was alive: “wasn’t morally correct”

@atruedrwhofan Was a fantastic night! Asked Peter about filming Tales from the TARDIS, that was special to hear his thoughts and mention Maureen so fondly! I didn’t see them before tonight, didn’t know episode 3 was so funny, and Douglas Camfield was a GIFT to 60s WHO!

@MCFilms2018 That's just as good. I very nearly went for another picture, but then I saw that and it has both Peter and Nick on it 😊😍

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous No problem! It’s fascinating to hear from them about the processes. They’re encouraging collectors to allow FIF! to archive, as many older film collectors die before setting them up, or even without knowing what they have, as they collect in bulk rather than chasing specific film

@MCFilms2018 @filmisfabulous Ah, OK. Thanks.

@brian_damage @filmisfabulous Currently cataloguing a recent collectors possessions of 16,000 tapes would take them 2 years to do, before restoration and delivery back to parent companies :) so it’s a timely process that they need to work on at a time best suited for all parties

@MCFilms2018 @filmisfabulous Well, what did he say? (I'm assuming he said something interesting!)
