What's all this then?? Basically what we are trying to do is to create a "short form" version of this classic story by removing padding, tightening up the pace, and ultimately creating a version of the story that might be more accessible to a modern audience. By no means are we wishing to detract from the original but we hope that this edit maintains the critical story-line and makes for an interesting take on this classic story!
In terms of the material, we have taken the most recent special edition which was nearly 120 minutes in length compared to the original 90 minute special. We would believe that one 2hr edition like this could be reduced to 1 hour and a four part serial could be edited to 45 minutes.
As fans we have prioritised the story narrative over all else, and as a result some classic "nice to have" scenes have been cut (much to our inner fan outrage!) but we hope the end result makes for interesting viewing. We hope to upload the hour long story in 5 parts.
I will just note that this is simply a fan edit of The Five Doctors for non profit making exploratory purposes so I do of course acknowledge and respect all copyrights. Having had little experience of video editing please forgive if it's a little rough round the edges! It has been uploaded in a reasonable quality format for ease of viewing.
Feedback welcome ... but do remember our intention is to investigate the possibility rather than create a polished gem that is perfect in every way!! ;)
