Doctor Who: The Missing Episodes Podcast

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.

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

With thanks to the wonderful Bea Garrido for her art, assistance and her patience.

This free podcast borrows snippets of music from “Marche, Les Structures Sonores” – Lasry Baschet. We lovingly pilfer music cues and sound effects from the BBC’s original production of The Daemons and of course, a brief section of dialogue from An American Werewolf in London.

(I'm aware of a couple of drops in audio - sorry about that... all fixed.)

Doctor Who: The Missing Episodes Podcast - Episode 8 - The Daleks' Master Plan (Part One)

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,
(sp) and despite the long recording session, we hope we avoided The Destruction of Rym-ill.

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.

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.
