Doctor Who Missing Episodes

Ok, so I wouldn't normally report news as there's lots of other places where such things are more than capably reported but this morning's breaking news is kind of relevant as the discovery of lost episodes provides more opportunity for those thinking of editing classic Who!

So, what's happened? Well the BBC news story covers quite a bit about the finding of Enemy of the World and all but one of Web of Fear!

But what about the finders? It is our understanding that Television International Enterprises Archives (TIEA) provides an archiving service to broadcasters. They dedicates a lot of time and resources in this effort and as a result I do not knock them for seeing a good business opportunity and pursuing it.

• TIEA discovered a number of missing Doctor Who episodes a little while ago along with a whole load of other "lost" TV programmes. Since then TIEA have been assessing and logging the finds to make these available again to broadcasters as appropriate. 
• When recently deceased Patrick Moore stated he wanted to see an Arthur C. Clarke interview he did on an episode of Sky of Night, TIEA kindly made this available to him.

Today's news may well mean that there's more Doctor Who out there. I am firmly of the belief that it is all out there, albeit private, undiscovered or under assessment.

I for one fully support and respect the endeavours of TIEA and wish them every success.
