    Default Dr Who UKGold recordings up for grabs!

    I've started to go through all my VHS cassettes, cherry picking the rare, interesting and valuable bits & transferring them to DVD before junking the tapes. So, before they go to the great rubbish tip in the sky, I though I'd offer them up here. Here's what's in the first batch... if red, it's spoken for.

    The Daleks
    (SP, UKGold omnibus, circa 1998)
    includes the National Lottery: Amazing Luck Stories feature on 'The Lion' discovery

    The War Machines / The Tomb of the Cybermen
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, circa 1998/9)

    The Dominators / The Mind Robber
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, circa 1999)


    The Ambassadors of Death
    (SP, UKGold omnibus, about 1999)
    completely in black and white

    Inferno
    (SP, UKGold omnibus, about 1999)

    The Sea Devils / The Mutants / The Time Monster / The Three Doctors (1-2)
    (LP, UKGold omnibuses, circa 1998)


    Genesis of the Daleks
    (SP, BBC2 episodic, Tuesdays 1-29 February 2000)
    missing first five minutes due to an accident with the record button

    The Robots of Death / The Talons of Weng Chiang
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, date unknown)

    The Robots of Death (episode 4) / Destiny of the Daleks / City of Death
    (LP/SP, UKGold omnibuses, circa autumn 1997)

    Horror of Fang Rock / The Invisible Enemy
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, date unknown)

    The Power of Kroll / City of Death
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, around Sep/Oct 1999)

    The Creature from the Pit / Nightmare of Eden / The Horns of Nimon / The Leisure Hive
    (LP, UKGold omnibuses, Sundays, late 1997)

    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, Sundays 26 October & 3 November 1999)


    State of Decay / Warrior's Gate / Daleks Invasion Earth 2150AD
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, 10 & 17 November 1999 and Dalek film in LP, from Ch4 broadcast)


    Castrovalva / The Visitation
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, Sundays 14 & 21 November 1998)

    Frontios / Resurrection of the Daleks
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, Sundays 13 & 20 February 2000)

    Revelation of the Daleks / The Mysterious Planet
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses)
    Revelation comes from their Dalek Day, whenever that was...

    Paradise Towers / Delta and the Bannermen
    (SP, UKGold omnibuses, Sundays 4 & 11 June 2000)
    Of course, I'm not asking for money, just cover the postage cost. It'd be nice to give some of them a good home. So let me know on this thread if you fancy any of them.

    I've already got them all....








    from 1995/96/97/98/99/2000*






    * dish was realigned in Summer 1996, so I recorded them all again with virtually no sparklies.

    I'd quite like the Mind Robber one

    Up til now I've been making do with the one I taped off BBC2 in about 1992, but I missed the first minute or two of episode 1 and then the transmitter went weird towards the end of it... which is a shame because it's one of my favourite episodes ever.

    Why don't you buy it on DVD if it's one of your favourites?

    Si.

    well.

    a) I didn't know it was out on DVD
    b) I have MOST of it, and can't justify the expense (which it is to me)
    c) I don't like most of the fiddling the "restoration" team get up to and they're bound to have done something that would annoy me.

    Well, the picture quality is obviously much better on the DVD than it is on the off-air recording, but if you want it then it's yours. Do you mind waiting till after Christmas though? I think the standard parcels deadline was today...

    I've waited 15 years so I think it'll be okay

    It's £7.89p on Sendit.com so once you account for the postage in getting a video to you, you're talking little more than a fiver more.

    I do find it odd that digital picture cleanup would annoy you, but a fuzzy off-air version with on-screen logo and edited credits wouldn't.

    Si.

    Nostalgia's a powerful thing.

    I see it now, this was all just a cunning ploy to lure out the skinflints for ridicule

    Never? For shame, Mr Masters, for shame.

    I hope you enjoy it, anyway. It was made on location in Wales, you know. Imagine that, Doctor Who being made in Wales - crazy!

    At the risk of appearing greedy, I'd also like The Sea Devils / The Mutants / The Time Monster / The Three Doctors and State of Decay / Warrior's Gate / Daleks Invasion Earth 2150AD if that's OK.

    At the risk of putting words in to Pip's mouth, I'm sure he doesn't mind if you are 'greedy', so long as he gets rid of the tapes & they go to a good home.

    Oh, they'll certainly be going to a good home - the contents of them will be living on nice shiny discs!

    Here I go again!

    If possible I’d like:

    The Keys of Marinus / The Aztecs (because I don’t have TKOM)
    The Web Planet / The Space Museum (because I don’t have TSM)
    The Ark/The Gunfighters (because I don't have The Ark)
    The Ambassadors of Death (6-7) / Inferno / Terror of the Autons / The Mind of Evil / The Claws of Axos (1-2) (because I don’t have TMOE)
    The Keeper of Traken / Logopolis / Castrovalva / Four To Doomsday (Because I don’t have FTD)
    Enlightenment / The Five Doctors (because I don’t have Enlightenment – and I mean the story rather than divine inspiration!)

    I know I’m jumping in here quickly again but this is really helping in my quest to complete my collection!
