Dozens of Doctor Who TV episodes are lost as visual film recordings--but they survive as audio soundtracks, digitally remastered with additional linking narration by members of the original cast. This handsome box set collects six adventures which are either wholly or partially lost from the TV archives, but which can be enjoyed in their entirety on audio. Presented in chronological order of transmission, the stories in this collection are "The Enemy of the World; The Web of Fear; Fury from the Deep; The Wheel in Space; The Invasion"; and "The Space Pirates."

Format:Audio CD
Well what a fabulous line up of Pat's classics we have here, 5 more classic 1960's serials brand new and remastered with some updated linking narration from Anneke wills on The Macra Terror. I find it brilliant that the BBC are constantly updating their Doctor Who range of releases, we have had 4 volumes of these brand new box sets now and are only one volume away from completing out collection of every missing Doctor Who serial on remastered CD.
So here we have the serials included in this BBC CD boxed set;
The Macra Terror - {4 episodes} - {0 exist on video}
The Faceless Ones - {6 episodes} - {episodes 1 & 3 exist on video}
The Evil of the Daleks - {7 episodes} - {only episode 2 exists on video}
The Abominable Snowmen - {6 episodes} - {only episode 2 exists on video}
The Ice Warriors - {6 episodes} - {episodes 1,4,5,6 exist on video}
So, now we know whats missing and what survives {on the Lost in Time DVD boxed set BBCDVD1353}, lets review the individual serials;
The Macra Terror - When I first heard the Macra Terror, I loved it, and that was a battered old 2 cassette release from the early 90's. The audio quality was poor but I still very much enjoyed it. Anneke Wills brand new linking narration is great and a real help if you are listening to the action rather than watching it via the reconstructions widely available online. If I could sum up the whole serial in one word, it would have to be atmosphere, this story screams atmosphere, the incidental music by Dudley Simpson is electric, it really adds to the production and is fantastic. There should be a BBC CD release for Dudley's work on Doctor Who for us to enjoy, but currently no such release has emerged.... Read more ›

I have to say, without a doubt, that these stories are the best CDs I've ever owned!
Having bought all of the Doctor Who The Lost TV Episodes Collections chronologically, I have been able to fill otherwise gaping holes in my ever expanding Doctor Who DVD collection. The quality is fabulous and each story is presented in it own case with booklet and track listing. If you divide the price by how many episodes there are in each collection you will find that they are being sold at very reasonable prices per episode, meaning a good bargain for any who fan.
I am very pleased with these lost who classics both in their presentation and in their restoration, and I would recommend them all. (Doctor Who: The Lost TV Episodes: Collections 1,2,3,4,5,6)

I have enjoyed listening to most of these stories and been able to imagine what is going on quite readily, but I was very disappointed with The Enemy of the World, which dragged on pointlessly for 6 episodes, just giving Patrick Troughton the chance to play two characters. The inclusion of The Invasion also seemed rather pointless, as it has come out on DVD with animated episodes. On the whole the stories were very good, but there was a tendency to drag things out, such as the leaving of Victoria. On the positive side, Fury from the Deep was much better than I expected from a story about sea weed! At points I was taken back to watching the original transmissions.

Quite simply one of the most amazing things to happen to a Doctor Who fan.
Now we can savour those lost stories for real. Ok, not everything about them is perfect (Enemy does drag), but so what? We can get to relive them!
Love this so much!
