    It is indeed an amazing week in the world of Doctor Who as two (!) episodes of The Daleks’ Master Plan, specifically episodes 1 and 3, have been resurrected into the daylight through the good work of Film Is Fabulous! Revel with the Three Who Rule as they mull over how this came to be, what it means future Who media releases, the relative calm of this announcement as compared to 2013’s ominrumour, and more! Plus we have an interview with Tim Burrows of the Missing Episodes Podcast to give you more of those granular details of technical cut film reels that all Archival Sickos crave! Also the usual Big Finish, EagleMoss figurine, and other news tidbits. Listen, or Bret Vyon will arrest you!

  6. Lost #DoctorWho episodes found in 'eclectic' collection

    Isaac Ashe and Simon Ward, March 12, 2026

    Excerpt: "A cardboard box found in a collector's 'ramshackle' collection of vintage films contained two episodes of Doctor Who that have not been viewed since airing in the 1960s.

    "The episodes feature the first incarnation of the Doctor, played by #WilliamHartnell, tackling a #Dalek plan to take over Earth, the solar system and the galaxy in a storyline only ever shown in the UK.

    "#PeterPurves, who played the Doctor's assistant Steven Taylor, was invited to the Phoenix Cinema in Leicester on Wednesday under false pretenses to view the two episodes, and he said: 'My flabber has never been so gasted.'

    "Restored versions of the episodes will be released on BBC iPlayer this Easter."

  11. Happy Birthday to Peter Purves.

    Although he's best remembered by my generation as a Blue Peter presenter, before that Purves played the 1st Doctor's companion Steven Taylor. As William Hartnell's health declined toward the end of his run on Doctor Who, Purves essentially became the leading man, helping to keep the series on the air. His reward? The BBC sacked him, of course.

    Here he is in *that* sweater from 'The Celestial Toymaker.'
