Aw man, after so much build up I really hope this is true. I'm sure the Radio Times wouldn't be reporting something like this unless there was something concrete behind it.

Unrelated news, The Doctor's Wife was on earlier, and the TvTropes page on that very episode has a link to this:

It's pretty awesome

Did I miss something somewhere? Apparently it was (unofficially) found out earlier this year (according to reports) that Marco Polo had been received and was being restored by someone (possibly not the BBC)? Cripes, I'd like to see that one. The set pictures are gorgeous.

I hadn't heard that either, but there's so much flying around at the moment I have no idea what to believe.

Someone who apparently is 'in the know', as the kids used to say, is claiming on another forum that Marco Polo has definitely been found but is not in BBC hands yet (possibly the same issue is happening with Web of Fear 3). Only one more day until this alleged press conference. Cripes, it's all very exciting, isn't it? :D

The source we'd all been waiting for guys :D :D :D

BBC News - BBC to reveal a number of missing Doctor Who episodes

Yay, Lizo! While I can't begin to understand what's going on behind the scenes, I sort of feel the public relations aspect of this situation have been a bit bungled. (Also, if rumors are to be believed, I can't believe they sat on this for 2-3 years.)

That doesnt help me :lol I have to wait until they arrive on BBC America.

If they did sit on it for that long, I commend everyone involved's ability to keep a secret.

Not believing the rumours that 106 episodes have been found for a second though, especially since some have pointed out that it's technically impossible. Whatever we get out of this its worthy of massive celebration though :D

*crosses fingers for Celestial Toymaker, Power/Evil of the Daleks, Highlanders, Moonbase, Abominable Snowman, Web of Fear or Wheel in Space eps*

The rumour is they are heading to iTunes.

The most prevalent rumors I'm seeing at this point are that Enemy of the Word and Web of Fear (minus episode 3 - a recon in its place) will be released digitally this week. Enemy of the World will get a DVD release on the 22nd at the 50th convention and Web of Fear (with or without episode 3) will follow. The number I'm seeing is that 9 individual episodes will be revealed this week, it total. I've seen 19 and 89 bandied about rather a lot as the total number in play, though.

Apparently there are some issues with episode 3 being returned to the BBC. I haven't seen specifics on that. Worrisome for me is that insiders are reporting that Marco Polo, once apparently a sure lock for return and release, is now in jeopardy of disappearing into the ether again for some reason. I would find that utterly heartbreaking to be so close.

To be honest, I'm really quite interested in what shows other than Doctor Who that were believed lost forever have now been found.

Yeah, I'd seen those were the two titles being passed around the most. Perfectly fine with me - Web of Fear is one of the ones I'd like to see the most and Enemy of the World sounds like it would be a great watch.

Just a shame Nicholas Courtney wasn't still around to see his character's first story recovered :(

I dont like that either :lol BBC America or meh.

Why hello there, more details about the announcement!

Deborah Watling's Official Site

I'm so very, very excited. :D

Sweet, with those two in attendance it almost seems a given its Web of Fear and Enemy of the World then :D

Apparently the time of the thing was a red herring. The press event is apparently happening right now! Too bad the BBC placed an embargo on reporting about it until midnight. Lots of folks saying the iTunes links will go live at midnight, at least for the UK.

So...Web of Fear (minus episode 3) and Enemy of the World are indeed found.

Best news ever.

I know it sounds totally corny, but something about watching these episodes, thought lost forever, with my favorite Doctor is really quite a powerful moment. Troughton is such a delightful imp! :D

There is a clip from The Enemy of the World up on the BBC's YouTube channel:

I'm not going to deny the chills watching this, too:

Steven Moffat drops some new hints about the identity of Hurt's Doctor...

Steven Moffat Says Doctor Can Only Have Twelve Regenerations But “There’s Something You’ve All Missed”

Steven Moffat Talks John Hurt’s Doctor

Beginning to put together my own crackpot theory about the Hurt Doctor now.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hRy2N2CMhQ

Wow, that is just amazing. Simply amazing!

Dang it Comic, you ninja.

But you are right. It is amazing. It has Roger Delgado in it! and Paul McGann! AND LIZ SLADEN!

I could watch that for hours simply trying to grab all of the references.

If you tried, you'd still be going by the time the episode came out. They put things like the Laser Screwdrive in there. Seriously.

That, I think, is the single best trailer they've ever made for the Doctor. Absolutely loved it.

I just love how much effort they put into the trailer. Talk about so much work and spoiling absolutely nothing! That really is a piece of art by itself!

I think the Yeti statue from Web of Fear has been my favourite thing I've spotted so far. Well, besides Pertwee's sword fight :D

Yeti, you say? Time to waste a few hours...

Callbacks found so far:
Policeman at the start
Totters Lane
Fez
Ten's Sonic
TARDIS key
Silver Sonic Screwdriver (Eight's?)
Jelly Babies
K9 + Sarah Jane
Dalek Soaceship

Vok Robot (I think)
Weeping Angel
Five playing cricket

A readout sayind 171623... (don't know what from)
Bessie!
Brainy specs
Laser Screwdriver

Way too many, plus I swear there are some I didn't get. Like the Yeti!

17162311 is the date/time An Unearthly Child aired - 17:16 on November 23rd.

Someone go ahead Gold Stamp Zeo's Nerdcard :lol

... This is the worst breach in continuity since Remembrance, where they almost had Doctor Who in Doctor Who.

Also, I just wanted to share a WMG I read on tvtropes a few days ago.



The Doctor was spilt up into echoes in the Name of the Doctor
• And as a result, people identical to his various incarnations were split up across his timeline (Salamander, Maxil, Caecillius.) Within the Day of the Doctor, people identical to some of the other incarnations will appear. And John Hurt will be an echo of John Hurt's incarnation (because he was referenced as an actor in the show (Torchwood)previously.)

It makes a strange amount of sense. Kinda.

That bit in Remembrance is awesome :lol

The Light at the End is out ahead of schedule. Time to get my classic Doctors on.

Alright I just spend $50 on two tickets to watch Doctor Who in the cinema. Crazy, but well it was sold out everywhere.

I would be going to see if in the cinema if I was around too. Hopefully the BBC have something good planned for con-goers, although I'm not sure as it supposedly ends at 5pm...

I'm still waiting for Fandango to update the Day of the Doctor listing with some locations/times. I definitely want to see this on the big screen.

It appears that we Who fans in the US have killed the Fathom Events site as tickets were supposed to go on sale at 9. I doubt the Met Gala crowd punishes their servers like this, and I say that as a general fan of opera.

Must wait till Christmas. Damn it Zeo, if you spoil it, I'll come and take all your Wild Force stuff.

I don't HAVE any Wild Force stuff :lol

I don't care. :D Now who am I thinking of?

EDIT: It's Den-O. Sorry, you're both red. And awesome.

You're too kind :D
And my lips are sealed on spoilers, not that I've listened to it myself yet anyway :lol

So last night the Doctor's Revisited aired with David Tennant and I am under-whelmed. They never even mentioned Army of Ghosts, or Turn Left, or the finale that followed. Despite airing that two-parter straight after. They never even once mentioned The End of Time or The Master, except when they talked about Martha Jones and her journey across the world spreading the Doctor's message. Not one damn mentioned of the Ood, despite how large an impact they had over his time as the Tenth. And they never once mentioned the late, great, Elisabeth Sladin (Sara Jane) and that excellent reunion episode they did together. And never once, in any of their specials, touched on her death at all which is a crime in itself.

Very disappointed.

Eep. And here was me being annoyed because they skipped Romana in the 4th Doctors one
