It's all Rills and Chumblies and Ben and Polly and nothing hurts.

I'd be rather disappointed if you didn't know the news already, but here it is again, just in case.

Galaxy 4: Episode Two and The Underwater Menace: Episode Two have been found. The first new episodes to be recovered since The Daleks' Master Plan: Episode Two in 2004.

Yep. The lost episode count now stands at 106. It feels good to say that. 106. It excited me to no end typing that.

I love The Underwater Menace. I don't care if it's perceived as a terrible episode. It has Ben and Polly and Fish People and Jamie and Patrick Troughton. I don't think anything else matters.

I have the audio release of Galaxy Four, but haven't gotten around to listening to it. I may do so now. This is all so exciting!

I see the Radio Times is reporting leads on 'new' lost episodes too. Now that these episodes have shown up, nearly FIFTY years later, I am hopeful. Incredibly excited. (Fingers crossed for The Evil of the Daleks and/or The Daleks' Master Plan...)

(Was that as jumbled as I read it to be? If so, blame it on the excitement.)

Also, NUZZINK IN ZE VORLD CAN SHTOP ME NOW!

Thirty Days of Telly Meme - Day Twenty-Seven

Day 27 - Best pilot episode





DOCTOR WHO: AN UNEARTHLY CHILD


It isn't technically 'the pilot', but it was the first episode that aired on television. The episode that started the longest running sci-fi drama in the history of television. The setup was great, and the characters also great. A fantastic start to a legendary television series.
