Ah, so that's the image that's being referred to here. Nice to finally see it after all these years!

@drwhopodcasters Just an update about the not-Rel Counter from not-2150AD (50'13"). It actually sold for a whopping £4375!
English
Listen to this. It’s alright!

🐟EPISODE 18 of The Doctor Who Missing Episodes Podcast: The Underwater Menace🐟 John Kelly, Gav Rymill and Jess Jurkovic join Tim Burrows to take a deep dive to find the hidden treasures in this often overlooked tale. Links below 👇 🐙Please share, or I'll feed you to my pet octopus🐙

@pculley @benjamin_cook Yes. It formed part of the block of 20 episodes offered to the ABC that also included Galaxy 4, The Myth Makers and The Daleks' Master Plan. The censor rejected Mission as well.
English
@benjamin_cook @NothingLane Interesting - the docs only cover the 11 episodes of DMP, but the letter indicates 12 episodes.
I assume the extra episode is MTTU, so was MTTU specifically packaged with just Master Plan for sales? Assuming so, I guess they didn’t care about the narrative gap with Myth Makers!
English
Can anyone recall the link that takes you to the 1960s Australian censorship records for Doctor Who? I'm sure I had it somewhere, but I'll be blowed if I can find it!
English
@LRoundels JNT does give quite a robust response to Peter Day about this though...
English
I love these production details😂
A letter from Peter Day (Head of BBC VisFX) to JNT regarding delay in his FX designer starting work on The Twin Dilemma.
Quelle Surprise one issue...

@AMadmanNotABox @themindrobber Draft and camera scripts for Episode 1.
English
@themindrobber has this caught your eye too? Do we have rehearsal or camera scripts for this episode?
English
Interesting to note with the start of this clip that the rightmost Dalek is speaking with the Supreme Dalek voice, but is silver and not black.
Since the voices would’ve been pre-recorded by Hawkins, was this originally scripted to be the Supreme?
English
@Steve_BabbF1 @drwhopodcasters Sadly not. The Daleks' Master Plan was recorded at Television Centre, with both of these episodes being done in Studio 3.
English
@drwhopodcasters Yes! Q: The event at Riverside on the 4th. Was DMP 1&3 filmed there? If so #ACE
English
Pondering doing a live Q&A on recent events. Don’t know if folks have questions I could tackle? 🤔

@2hrTV @TheCyberdevil Costume and set designs survive from hardly *any* stories.
English
@TheCyberdevil Do costume and set designs not survive from every DW story?
English
I’m redoing my last tweet because of the strange AI Facebook had.
Film is Fabulous has posted two new screenshots from The Nightmare Begins. One of which features Roald and Lizan, two characters we had no idea what they looked like.
English
@TheDimmeh No, it doesn't. Cutting copies were part of BBC Enterprises' process for producing sales copies of episodes. It was decided before the episode was even made that The Feast of Steven wasn't going to form part of the DMP sales package. No recording made for sales = no cutting copy.
English
So if I understand this right how the copies were made back in the day....
Does... Does that mean there might have been more copies of 'The Feast of Steven' than we originally realised???????????????????????????

Statement on Doctor Who
Film is Fabulous! have issued a statement to provide further clarity, greater detail, and a simpler explanation, to ensure a better understanding on the recovery of the two missing episodes of Doctor Who.

@benjamin_cook When Australia rejected it, it effectively made it uneconomical to offer for sale anywhere else in the world, so no, it wasn't broadcast anywhere other than in the UK.
English
Australia rejected “The Daleks’ Master Plan”, right? 🇦🇺 So did New Zealand 🇳🇿 and Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 …? Zambia 🇿🇲 was denied TX rights. But did Barbados 🇧🇧 ever air DMP? Or did anywhere else I’m missing?
English
Doctor Who experts! Is it correct to say that neither “The Nightmare Begins” nor “Devil’s Planet” has been broadcast, ANYWHERE in the world, since their original UK transmission in November 1965? (CC: @NothingLane @TobyHadoke @themindrobber @drwhopodcasters)
English
@NothingLane As much as I like the Monk, I didn't understand why he was still dressed as a monk in this story.
English
Having listened to Tim, Toby and Gavin's effusive joy about all the wonderful things that these two episodes provide, I can't help but wonder, once all the silliness of Spooner's The Chase II episodes were over, just how much of a visual treat the final episode would have been...
Tim - Missing Episodes Podcast@drwhopodcasters
TWO MISSING EPISODES RETURNED! The Daleks' Master Plan 1&3 are BACK!! Exclusive interviews with Gav Rymill, Toby Hadoke Oliver Crocker, John Franklin from Film is Fabulous! and none other than Peter Purves. Thank you film collectors! Thank you Film is Fabulous! #DoctorWho #MissingEpisodes Links below 👇Shares appreciated 🙏

@DublinFox98 @themindrobber It was normally more luck rather than judgment. After programme assets were finished with (i.e. once the programme had been completed and transmitted), there was usually no point in keeping them and they'd be routinely junked. Fortunately, some just managed to survive.
English
@NothingLane @themindrobber Thanks Richard, I understood why certain elements were shot on film, I was more curious how those specific examples survived, like how a few min of War Games exist cause a crew member kept it as a demo reel for jobs after
English
@themindrobber Hey Gav, with all the celebration on Master Plan, I was wondering, do you know why and how the BBC own 35mm footage from Ep 1&2? Very excited to see those segments implemented into the newly discovered episode
English
@YstradHistory That's the chair that appeared in a number of different stories during Hartnell's time.
English
@NothingLane so they had a snap of the chair in the background and used that, thinking it was that?
English
The clip of DMP1 on BBC Breakfast gives us our first look the magnetic chair that Vyon is stuck to. Loose Cannon imagined it as a normal wooden chair in their recon of 2003. Ian Levine's AI version just lifted directly from the LC recon and sat someone completely different in it!
English
@TheCyberdevil What’s the source that the Radio Times got it wrong, Matthew?
English
Can't find the original source for this, but apparently Radio Times got it wrong. Episode 5 of The Daleks was amongst the collection.
The stored field copy of that episode was damaged, so could prove to be very useful for The Collection.
Matthew Purchase@TheCyberdevil
According to the Radio Times, the four existing episodes that were found were. The Daleks 2 & 3 The Web Planet 1 The Chase 1
English
@NothingLane Yes, a bit thin 😬
Are there any plans to vidfire the recovered episodes for iplayer?
