Two long-lost Doctor Who episodes from the 1960s were found among a deceased collector’s possessions and have been restored by BBC archivists; they will be available to stream on the BBC’s service next month.
Amateur sleuths in Britain have discovered two missing episodes of the long-running TV series "Doctor Who," featuring the first Doctor, William Hartnell. However, they are refusing to return the episodes to the BBC due to fears of confiscation and prosecution. The film collectors are calling for a general amnesty on missing film footage, as they believe many important collections are at risk of being discarded. The BBC has expressed willingness to negotiate with anyone holding lost episodes from that time period.
