Mind of Evil - DVDs arriving in the nick of time NOW!

[Dave Tudor]

They look pretty damn stunning.

[Antony Cox]

This is very exciting! Apart from the 8 minutes of off-air colour from one of the later episodes, most of us have NEVER seen any of this story in colur, so it will give it a completely new look and feel.

It's occurred to me; much as I'd like this DVD to be about me...

[Rob McCow]

There was a big screening of The Mind of Evil yesterday and there's been positive feedback about the colourisation on Twitter. Katy Manning in paticular was thrilled!

I'm still worried that they'll have got all the colours wrong and that a bright blue Jon Pertwee will be assisted by a burnt orange Nicholas Courtney in facing off against a vermillion Roger Delgado. Would be kind of awesome...

[Antony Cox]

It may end up looking like the Spanish TV spoofs which used to feature in The Fast Show...

Yes, but what about the colourisation on The Mind Of Evil?

Katy Manning in paticular was thrilled!

By whom...?

In other words, David Dickinson...

[SiHart]

Hmm, not so sure about this one.

[Andrew Curnow]

Pertwee is looking very shocked... probably because he's seen what looks like an enormous phallic symbol looming over Jo Grant!

[Simon R]

Jo looks like she's struggling to do the Tragedy dance routine.

[Si Hunt]

Bad cover. The Master is looking away, thus divorcing him thematically from everything else in the image. The emphasis should be on the Keller Machine, but its faint to the point of being invisible; instead the element at the forefront, weirdly, is Jo, leaving the main item someone squirming in fear against something completely unseen. Finally, on a release which perhaps has more reason than most to emphasise colour, the whole thing has been doused in a light sheen, making it the opposite of striking. A very poor effort artistically this one.

[Si Hunt]

I actually think this is one cover which will be improved by the dreaded block of grey roundels - this version is drowning in that awful void of pink pastel!

[Dave Tudor]

So, do you think the roundels have improved the artwork after all, Si? Personally, I think it's a pretty poor cover.

[Dino]

I've forgot, is this the one where The Master is listening to King Crimson's second album on a radio?

[Si Hunt]

Yes, I think for once they do. Breaks up that pink.

[SiHart]

I've forgot, is this the one where The Master is listening to King Crimson's second album on a radio?

Yep, in the back of the limo I believe

[Dave Tudor]

The track 'The Devil's Triangle', in fact. Should have known The Master was a prog fan.

[Stuart Wallis]

So if he's next played by Rick Wakeman...

"I always dress for the occasion..."

#WEOW-WEOW-WEOWWW!!#

[Rob McCow]

And... what particular occasion requires you to dresszzz like THAT?!!!

[Matthew T]

That's the exact same chair the White Guardian had in The Ribos Operation....COINCIDENCE?

[SiHart]

Oh my!
