Doctor Who: An Adventure in Space and Time Q&A

[@WalkingOnMarsTv]

"An Adventure in Space and Time" was the true 50th anniversary special.

[@maryfiorentino8877]

"Just lock the doors and we'll do Marco Polo" yes pleaseeeee!!!! Se need this man to take charge of all Doctor Who episodes, he would make them awesome

[@davidyoung5114]

Wouldn't it be feasible for the actors from 'An Adventure In Space & Time' to re-create some of the 'lost' episodes of Doctor Who from the Hartnell era?

[@ShadowWolf1982]

it would be a nice imitation, but sadly that's all it would be. Fans from the beginning would be picking at it trying to find flaws, and new generation who fans might not have as strong an interest in such early episodes which while rich in writing were lacking in effects; a product of the times. Also unless you shot it in the same...was it 8mm film?....it just wouldn't have the same feel of the original who episodes. If one was lucky enough to see them when they were originally aired then hold onto the memories and treasure them forever.

[@UnchainedEruption]

ShadowWolf1982 Yeah, it just wouldn't be the same. It would probably also be too expensive for the BBC and like you said not much demand for it since New fans would be bored. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see if they use animation to recreate the episodes. I really like that format, coupled with the original audio.

[@Fifty1stState.]

;o) looks like someone may be thinking of that now!

[@timrob12]

I understand your opinion, but I think a lot of New Who fans would be up for seeing it, I believe. I totally support a recreation of these missing stories.

[@livvy94]

It'd be better than nothing! And certainly better than cheap motion-tween Adobe Flash animation

[@RRB99]

I love 'An Adventure in Space and Time' so much, and seeing behind-the-scenes videos are just so great. This is such a treat.

[@mekonta]

You can see the resemblance of William Hartnell in Jessica's face.

[@tomimpala]

0:06 The Master! He's there, doctor, get him!

[@evildeed90s]

they cant waste this opportunity he looks exactly like william hartnell they could make a spin off even if its just a one off series what him and susan did before landing on earth in the 60s

[@timrob12]

David Bradley should come onto the main show as the First Doctor.

[@geoffers2905]

timrob12 your wish may well be coming true according to recent rumours

[@timrob12]

I'll read about them and it makes sense with the Mondasian Cybermen returning. After all, they were responsible for the First Doctor's regeneration and it would be nice if Capaldi revisited these events and meets the First Doctor (or tries to avoid him).

[@bobbuilder7227]

timrob12 have you got this weeks lottery numbers lol

[@timrob12]

I'm afraid that giving them away might cause a paradox where Jupiter and Mars crash into each other. So, I can't reveal them.

[@rawyld]

Well he is for the 2017 Christmas Special

[@NorybDrol82]

Somebody throw money at Mark Gatis & David Bradley to do Marco Polo please!

[@markfox7764]

David Bradley is a legend

[@davidsendy1869]

He was the evil border guy in 'dinosaurs on a spaceship' wasn't he? The Matt Smith episode

[@DBProds96]

Solomon

[@timrob12]

Written by your next incarnation, Chris Chibnall.

[@rodneymarsden3003]

A wonderful tribute to Doctor Who. Something Chibnall has recently thrown away. I grew up with William Hartnell's Doctor Who. It was a wonderful time and a brilliant show. It took me a long time to get used to the second Doctor because of the recorder.

[@ShadowWolf1982]

HOLY CRAP....I didn't realize it till I saw the close up, but David played Mr. Filtch from the Harry Potter series!!

[@WolfGratz]

And indeed the truly repellent Walder Frey on Game of Thrones. In real life however I've met him a few times and he has always been absolutely lovely.

[@paulashe7460]

It’s called acting love ?

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

Jessica Carney does not look older than 40 let alone 50.

[@xpaddy01]

These are lovely, and insightful! Thanks for sharing! Wish I could have attended all of them (wrong side of the pond though! ;) )!

[@jakeandzack5763]

David Bradley looks so much like William Hartnell, it's frightening.

[@NeverKetamine]

I have to say, she looks absolutely incredible for her age. She was what, 56 when this was filmed? She could pass for early 40s, honestly.

[@Wyzard01]

Did anyone else notice that the guy that is playing the current Master was in An Adventure In Space & Time?

[@Wyzard01]

@@cheyennebrennan966 the director, that sounds like a good name for another dr who character.

[@Wyzard01]

@@cheyennebrennan966 I am thinking another renegade time lord or lady.

[@FahadAyaz]

And he's next to the "First" Doctor

[@markwardel6751]

One of the greatest things I have ever seen ....Mark Gatiss is a genius.

[@Howtragicforyou]

Only in Doctor who could you have a stage with this few people yet two of them played the master in one form or another

[@johnbowman6197]

Happy New Year, BFI! Any chance you could upload the video of the Q&A session that followed the screenings of The Eleventh Hour and The Name of the Doctor, please?

[@BFIEvents]

Hi John. To go up shortly!

[@johnbowman6197]

BFIEvents Many thanks. Much appreciated :)

[@cheyennebrennan966]

The director has become the Master. 💖💖

[@RabbiB0Y]

they really should recreate the lost episodes and since they have 1-2 and maybe 3 recast-ed they should do it and plus a lot of us are probably going back, and watching classic who I am on the last episode of the keys of Marianas story (had to skip macro polo)

[@9000yugioh]

Why does David Bradley look so different???

[@danielsleeper2307]

Ah! The Doctor sitting next to the Master!

[@steveb6925]

It is a truly wonderful production

[@paulashe7460]

Was amazing

[@cameronsharp2022]

students! in! the! corridor!

[@webhead66]

30 sec in and I'm yelling "sound balance". I hope it gets better... OK my bad, Hartnell's grand-daughter was sitting too far from the mic. Guess she's not a professional.

[@lucas-the-og]

Maybe the 2017 Christmas Special has bits of the Marco Polo episode in it?

[@charliegamage8862]

Lucas Olafsson nope tenth planet as It was the last William Hartnell episode it's in be tween the end of the final episode

[@lucas-the-og]

ok

[@julieeverett7442]

its one of the stories with NO footage left

[@robtymec2045]

If only Sacha knew, then, how much deeper he would be diving into the show!!!

[@BarryLetts379]

That's not Sacha, there was never a Sacha Dwhan. That man is known as The Master

[@alexrobinson4802]

ella s dad xxxx

[@missgrimreaper2000]

I would be happy if they at least recreated Marco Polo.

[@julieeverett7442]

with all the sets and costumes, not to mention 7 episodes long, this is one of the hard ones
