Doctor Who has been a hit TV show for more than 40 years. Unfortunately more than 100 of the early black and white episodes no longer exist in the BBC's film and videotape library.
However, episodes that the BBC thought had been lost forever have turned up in car boot sales, in peoples' attics and in other weird locations. So the wonderful people at Blue Peter have launched a campaign to try and track down these lost episodes.
The prize for anybody who finds a missing episode is a full-size replica Dalek... so it's definitely worth asking your family to check their lofts, garages, and spare bedrooms for any old film cannisters that might have the magic words 'Doctor Who' on the label.
Click on the link below to visit the Blue Peter website for full details of all of the episodes that are currently missing. There's also the details of how you can get in touch with the BBC if you do find one of these lost reels of film.

Try it at 38 minutes 16 seconds ...
dude I have burned that thing to a dvd and watched it. There is no problems with that file on my server. Maybe your transfer got corrupted. Or yuo shit is fucked up. That file is fine.
Okay, so...The Christmas Invasion....new Doctor, cheesy script. Not bad.
New Earth. Great special effects, good Doctor. Even better.
And now, Tooth & Claw.
FANTASTIC!!
GREAT Doctor! GREAT script! Fucking AWESOME cinematography!!
For the first time in a LOOOOONG time (even through the Eccleston stuff) I actually got "tense" during the story. It's fast, dark, and brutal. It's the one with the werewolf, so, obviously it's going to be dark. But, there are some very nice twists on the werewolf mythology, and, that made it for me. So, this really saved the concept in my opinion. And, the reports were correct. The CGI for the werewolf is flawless. I mean, movie-style. Damn good.
No..She is a ROBO Girl. There is a difference..Robo girls have a helmet put on them to turn them into human robotic beings..hence, the eerie look in her eyes. Otherwise, without the Robo helmet, she is a perfectly normal..and human woman.
The helmet could be hidden under her hair.
Fembots are totally robotic beings, programmed to look and behave in a manner similar to humans.
I'm attempting to download Seasons 1 & 2 presently. Having never really seen any Dr. Who before, I'm really not sure what to expect, but I'm going in with an open mind, so... we'll see.
Chewy, I think the new series will give you a perfect indication of what Doctor Who is all about. Season One, with the 9th Doctor, is incredibly stand-out among the series. If nothing else, their special effect budget for, say, one episode is larger than an entire season of the original series...
Seriously, though, I think you'll dig the concept. Also, just as a side-note, the character of "Prometheus" was always somewhat inspired by The Doctor. I think that will be self-evident once you've seen a few episodes...
