Absolutely superb work. Thank you so much. That gave me a much clearer understanding of what went on in the scene.

Amazing video David! Fascinating to hear about the shot of the stovepipe hat landing on the clock, never heard of that. I’d love to see more missing scene breakdowns like this, makes you realise how much is really lost! Great video as always 😄

9:40 I’ve long suspected that’s from the end of the line "Are you coming, YOU TWO‽" (relevant section capitalised) from that first swamp scene. It would fit with him calling to the still-in-the-TARDIS Ben & Polly, and he could be simply returning his hat to his head from having dropped it during the preceding action sequence.

On the 2016 release of the Power animation (I do not have the 2020 Special Edition) the surviving footage feature syncs that shot to “are you coming you two” and indeed it’s a much better sync than “are you not”.

@@ryankomitor7391 You should have the SE. The 2016 release is officially deprecated and was always considered an embarrassment by the team owing to the large reduction in production time while they were already working on it (12 months became 7, then 6, all to hit the 50th anniversary of its first broadcast). Sizeable chunks of that version are literally first drafts because there simply wasn’t time to do anything more than that.

Great work David, it's like my eyes have been opened! Would love to see one of these for the mercury swamp scene, as I feel a lot of that is mysterious too!

Excellent analysis thank you. Please do an analysis of the Dalek incubator room scene now that we have some fragments from that.

9:58 I think that's clearly him saying "Are you coming you two?"

I am determined to avoid complacency with these videos - this is a stunner, forensically compelling viewing, smoothly presented and professionally executed. Thanks

I'd suggest that one reason for the break in recording before the mirror inlay shot was at least partly to rig a hidden rigid support for the mirror. In the days before motion tracking, compositing two essentially static images together betrayed even the most miniscule unsteadiness. However steady an actor tried to be in holding the mirror it would never be good enough for a convincing result.

If anybody reading this, for those who has any of the 6 episodes. please return them to both the fans and the BBC.

Great video! This will really help with my future reconstructions. I was wondering, could you make a video showing how the last moments of the tenth planet could've REALLY looked according to the camera script, telesnaps, the 8mm footage, and the Blue Peter footage?

@animeaction1911 2 ай бұрын

Great video. I agree it would be great to see this episode again. It'll probably be returned if you do a complete shot breakdown for the entire thing knowing how these things always go

I suspect the stray Troughton bit with the hat might be shot 97, the Doctor saying "I am wearing proper clothes". Then puts the hat on. Getting a laugh as it clearly contradicts his comment.

Amazing that those notes survivved. Am curious about the very short clips recorded off the TV. Why do just them?

@DrWhoFanJ 4 ай бұрын

We have camera scripts of some kind for (almost) every DW episode. The clips have been identified as coming from repeat broadcasts (somehow, apparently), so they must have been done in at least some knowledge of what bits to film, but that’s basically all we know about them at this point. We don’t even know who it was that recorded them originally!

@@DrWhoFanJ but we do know who has the 8mm footage now, I've been trying to get in contact with them to get a rescan with better quality, but it's proven difficult to get in contact.
