It’s episode 17 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! And it’s the last of the pure historical adventures, until this very day. The fourth story of season 4 also sees a very different portrayal, or series of portrayals, by Patrick Troughton. The Doctor is still very much an...

Our next story in the regular series is the last of the pure historicals—making it the perfect time to reflect on the place of the historical adventure in early Doctor Who. To mark the occasion, Tim is joined by histori...

It’s episode 16 of The Missing Episodes Podcast! The third story of season 4 introduces Patrick Troughton as a very different Doctor Who, if indeed he is The Doctor. A question which divides the rest of the TARDIS crew, Ben and Polly.

But despite this fundamental change t...

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.”

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 Tippl...

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 succe...

“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...

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...

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.

This episode they’re joined by Doctor Who author and missing episodes researcher Jon Preddle, the driving force behind www.broadwcast.org.

When we interviewed Paul Scoones about the recovery of ‘The Lion’ for episode 3, we didn’t want to pass up the opportunity to ask him about his other contributions to the worlds of Doctor Who.

So here’s our full and wide-ranging discussion, covering Paul’s work on the DVD and Bluray ranges, 'The Comic Strip Companions', his unofficial novelisations of Resurrection of the Daleks and Shada (hens’ teeth!) and more!

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
