Comment Hmmmm (Score 4, Interesting) 129

Some Titanic enthusiasts are already pointing out errors, such as the rate of list and the time scale of the flooding; I can't speak for this having not seen the video but my analysis of how the ship sank is here. Personally I have doubts as one person who worked on the project is a known plagiarist and one of the authors is a cherry picker of data (he insists that the ship had a massive list to port when she went under but only one of the three survivors who was on the Titanic till the last mentioned it, and his evidence is suspect, like claiming he was in freezing cold water for hours without any ill effect whatsoever). BTW, my own Titanic stuff is on this page.

The point is: Canada only bought up to and including Marco Polo in the mid 1960s. The US bought most of the first three Pertwee seasons in the early/mid 1970s. By the time they got round to buying other episodes, including black and white, the stories we've mentioned here didn't exist anymore. They weren't officially sold to Canada and yet my friend saw them.

You know, I had a friend in Canada who swore blind he saw 1960s episodes broadcast that are now missing but when this was mentioned to the upper echelons of Dr.Who fandom, we were told it wasn't true, his memory was faulty, or that he was wrong. The man is sure he was right, but to those of Fandom Royalty, it seemed to be much effort to check the basis of this story. It was much easier to label it as "rumour" or "wrong."

Submission + - Man Who Found Missing Dr Who Episodes Teases "More To Come" (bleedingcool.com)

BigBadBus writes: In late 2013, Philip Morris announced that he had found 9 missing episodes of 1960s Dr.Who, which completed the 1968 story "Enemy of the World" and most of "The Web of Fear." He has now gone on record to talk about the only episode of these stories that he didn't find — namely part 3 of "Web of Fear" and teases of more episode finds to come.
