WELCOME TO THE SECOND PIRATE HISTORIES OF DOCTOR WHO, exploring the unauthorized and unapproved corners of the Whoniverse, the unofficial, the overlooked, the secret and the hidden.Volume two begins with the parallel history of Doctor Who on state, starting with official productions from Curse of the Daleks, entirely Doctor free in 1965, to the Ultimate Adventure in 1989, starring three Doctors, including Jon Pertwee and Colin Baker. Also including independent productions from the Planet of Storms to the Trial of Davros, and including the production of Power of the Daleks, Reimagined.We’ll delve into the strange copyright situation of Doctor Who that left writers owning large chunks of the Universe, and the legal but non-BBC productions that took advantage of that loophole, including Downtime, Shakedown, the Stranger series and the Devil Seeds of Arodor, featuring Doctor Who characters and monsters, including the Brigadier, the Brigadier’s daughter Kate, Sarah Jane, the villainous Sil, the Sontarans, Rutans, Great Intelligence and Yeti, that populated the wilderness years of the 1990s.Learn the secrets of why the BBC almost destroyed its own legacy, throwing out over two hundred classic episodes, and how the fans saved the show, creating audio recordings of every lost episode, helping to recover over a hundred episodes, and finding ways to visually re-create lost episodes.Along the way, we’ll dip into the quest to save and make serials that the BBC abandoned, from Masters of Luxor, planned to be the second Doctor Who serial in 1963 and replaced by the Daleks, to the shocking story of the ill fated Lost in the Dark Dimensions, the 30th anniversary special and Tom Baker comeback vehicle.All this and the secret of Season 6B, the lost series 23 and what happened to it, the restoration of Marco Polo, and Devious, a fan film epic guest starring 3rd Doctor Jon Pertwee, and over thirty years in the making.Take a tour with us on amazing parts of the Who Universe you never knew existed.
