It’s episode 13 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! For the first time proper, the TARDIS is back on contemporary Earth, indeed in contemporary London, and The Doctor and Dod… uhh… the Doctor and new, groovy companions Ben and Polly face down the mechanical menace in the Post Office Tower and The War Machines.

Master podcaster Steven Schapansky (@RadioFreeSkaro) and Doctor Who Historian Jon Preddle (https://broadwcast.org/) join to help analyse this most seminal of stories, as Season 3 draws to a close and Doctor Who marches on in a new format under Innes Lloyd and Gerry Davis.

Then it’s off on a world tour, as Jon talks us through the sales process, censorship in Australia and New Zealand and how and why four prints of The War Machines ended up in Nigeria, to be found by Ian Levine in the 1980’s. This is the deepest of deep dives and summarises years of Jon’s cutting-edge research. We also explore why, perhaps, The Wheel in Space wasn’t in Jos when Enemy and Web were recovered over ten years ago!

So leave your Dodo at home, put on your fab gear and join us as we take a look at The War Machines.

It’s episode 12 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! The Savages is not only missing from the archives, but also seemingly missing from fandom’s thoughts and affections. What makes it so intangible? What is it about and what did it look like? To explore these questions, Tim is joined once again by Gav Rymill (Dalek 63.88, Doctor Who Magazine, Doctor Who: The Collection) and Rhys Williams (Doctor Who Magazine and Doctor Who researcher.)

Ian Stuart-Black’s Doctor Who debut, brings with it a host of firsts as the show begins to reshape itself into the format that would sustain it until, well, now; from the first use of a quarry, to the first proper performance of someone else portraying the Doctor. We also say goodbye to Season 3 stalwart Steven Taylor and Dodo continues to enjoy her character’s resurgence, which began in The Gunfighters. So, thanks to the insights of Gav and Rhys, we find that there’s much to enjoy in this forgotten, cautionary tale of exploitation gone awry. There’s also an in-depth analysis of fur swimwear.

So prime your reacting vibrators, prepare to donate your ‘brain juice’ and join us as we explore the world of The Savages.

It’s episode 11 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! It’s time to explore the realm of The Celestial Toymaker and to commemorate the only missing episode found on Australian soil, Paul and Tim are joined by two prominent Antipodean missing episode devotees: Josh Snares (Youtuber extraordinaire https://www.youtube.com/c/JoshSnares ) and colourist and Celestial Toymaker obsessive, Kieran Highman https://twitter.com/The66Ramblers 

We say finally say farewell to the Wiles/Tosh era as once again the team try to get to the bottom of another complex Season 3 origins narrative. Then it’s on to the story itself as we explore the themes, characters and plot involved in this divisive tale that fan lore tells us is an undisputed classic.

Episode 4 was found in Australia in the 1980’s, but why was it there and what are the chances of any more of it being found?

So come and play some seemingly harmless games with us as we take a deep dive into The Celestial Toymaker.

It’s episode 10 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! Paul is back and after some skullduggery in a Parisian tavern, Steven Schapansky (host of the podcast phenomenon that is https://radiofreeskaro.com/) joins the team for a look at Season 3’s and indeed Doctor Who’s most missing serial: The Massacre (of St Bartholemew’s Eve). Together, they try and unpick the genesis of the story. Was John Lucarotti the main force behind it, or is that just a load of old Tosh? Does Lucarotti’s Target novelisation offer some clues? Does the doppelganger plot thread work? And of course we discuss the usual missing episodes aspects – will we ever get to see it?

So put aside your religious differences, and join us in Medieval France for a deep dive into The Massacre.

The Missing Episodes Podcast is back and ready to continue its journey through the missing (and found) episodes of Doctor Who, but there’s business to conclude first with the second part of our look at “The Daleks’ Master Plan.”

In part two, Tim is joined again by the still brilliant Gav Rymill, who’s just relaunched his YouTube series of Terry Nation Army videos https://www.youtube.com/user/Dalek6388 and remains a man of many talents. Gav is joined by researcher extraordinaire Rhys Williams, fresh from his stunning piece on The Wheel in Space in Doctor Who Magazine (co-written with Simon Guerrier and Gav!) Rhys collects facts like Mavic Chen collects Taranium. Together they shine considerable light on how iconic scenes in DMP would have looked, what the Australian censors saw, the Doctor Who sales process and the technical side of the creation of film prints.

If that’s not enough, author, broadcast history and missing episodes researcher and driving force behind the indispensable https://www.broadwcast.org, Jon Preddle, weighs in with a detailed account of the censorship process and the returns of episodes 2, 5 and 10.

So put on your SCUBA gear and join us on this very deep dive as we ponder what YOUR most missed missing moments are, why we have the clips and episodes that we have, what the chances are of more DMP coming back and how many vegetable terms the Australian censors can use to describe Zephon.

Season 8 on Blu-ray is upon us, so in a bonus episode of The Missing Episodes Podcast, it’s off to The Slaughtered Lamb The Cloven Hoof to meet four people who helped with the latest restoration of "The Daemons".

Once upon a time, 4 of the 5 episodes of The Daemons were only known to exist on black and white 16mm film, and while standing on the shoulders of giants (figuratively), Kieran Highman, Ant Lamb, Gav Rymill and Rich Tipple talk about their contributions to the latest version of that most renowned of Pertwee adventures.

So be a devil and join us as we ponder where technology has led us and where it may lead us in the future of restoration.

It’s a much missed, long sought after “epic”, yes, The Missing Episodes Podcast is back from the junking pile. This is the first of two episodes looking at the twelve-part Season 3 story, “The Daleks’ Master Plan.”

In part one, Paul and Tim are joined by the brilliant Gav Rymill. Gav, a man of many talents, is well known for his work in Doctor Who related graphic design and for being one of the two men behind the phenomenally successful “Dalek 63:88.” Gav leads the team on a deep dive into the origins of the story, what might have been, what the heck was going on the with casting of companions and reveals, for perhaps the first time, whose nipples feature in DMP.

There’s a veritable Volcano of facts, more to chew on than at The Feast of Steven,

So welcome, delegates and please enjoy Gav’s wonderful insights into this mostly missing classic.

Gav’s latest book “The Dalek Combat Training Manual” can be found here.

Gav and Jon’s wonderful “Terry Nation Army” videos can be found here.

Jess Jurkovic’s “Dudley Simpson is Doctor Who” can be found here.

This free podcast borrows snippets of music from “Marche, Les Structures Sonores” – Lasry Baschet. We lovingly pilfer original music cues by from the BBC’s original production of The Daleks’ Master Plan. The Terry Nation Army theme is by the exceedingly talented Graeme Allan.

“Beware of Greeks bearing gifts!” Unless, as it turns out on this occasion, the gift is comedian and sixties Doctor Who stalwart Toby Hadoke, all lovingly gift-wrapped and ready to talk.

It doesn’t take long to become apparent that Toby and the team are cheerleaders for the much neglected “The Myth Makers”. And there's plenty to say on the subject, from it's semi-historical originals to its status as the first full-blooded comedy in the Who ouvre. It's also the first Wiles-Tosh project, where bawdy high comedy and bloodstained tragedy go hand-in-hand. Does such a mix make for a successful Doctor Who story, or is it all too much? If you're unsure, open your mind and let Toby persuade you...

After the team have finished eulogising they put on their Missing Episode hats and turn their attention to the country that once seemed to offer the best hope for Myth Makers and its season 3 brethren: the much debated Sierra Leone. If you've ever been confused by the ongoing and rather twisty narrative of out-of-contract repeats, shelled TV stations and Morecambe & Wise hiding in a derelict cinema, their analysis should set you straight. On top of which, there may well be a rare update-ette from one of the top bods in the Missing Who field!

What's a Grecian urn? Who cares, the Missing Episodes Podcast is free, so what excuse do you have not to listen!

If you’re bored of Paul and Tim, Toby comes in at 2 minutes, 45 seconds. 

Missing episodes stuff is discussed at around the 55 minute mark.

Missing episode enthusiasts Paul and Tim think they've hit on a Varga-ood idea: tracking down lost TV signals in outer space… After they've tackled that thorny issue, they set about a more realistic goal: reviewing the Season 3 one-part story Mission to the Unknown.

Mission acts as a trailer for the forthcoming twelve-part epic “The Daleks’ Master Plan” - but does it do its job? Is the Doctor-less experiment successful in its own right? And can Paul and Tim keep track of three characters’ names in a 25 minute piece of television drama?

This time they are joined by Andrew Ireland from the University of Central Lancashire. The driving force behind the wonderful 2019 live action recreation of the story, Andrew   brings his deep understanding of Mission to the team's discussion of the story, and adds a host of insights into the virtues of 1960’s TV production methods.

In 2019, Andrew also appeared on our good friend Richard Smith’s “Something Who” podcast and gave fascinating testimony to the production of the UCLAN project. We highly recommend not only revisiting this podcast first, but also Richard’s review of the story which features all manner of Delegatory delights with author Jac Rayner (plus a couple of voices which may sound familiar). They can be found here:

All is not as it appears and evil can be found where you least expect it! Yes, BBC Enterprises' attitude to missing episodes back in the late 1970's wasn't the most helpful, as this episode’s guest explains.

First off, Paul and Tim review the largely missing Season 3 opener, while they dispute fan lore and ponder what this story is really about…

Then they’re joined by Jan Vincent-Rudzki for a look at the foundation of the Doctor Who Appreciation Society, his involvement with seminal documentary “Whose Doctor Who”, and his subsequent stewardship of just shy of 6 minutes of “Four Hundred Dawns”. Jan also obtained those oh-so-important 8mm snippets of monochrome Who and he provides fascinating insight into those early days of organised fandom and the dawning realisation that much of our beloved show had gone, perhaps forever.

So tune in your Chumbley and join us as we review “Galaxy 4”. It's a Rilly good listen!
