A telesnap reconstruction of the lost Dugga Doo episode of Doctor Who

[circular-time]

Truly amazing. Colin Brockhurst created the best fan-made cover art for Big Finish back in the day, before their own in-house graphics were as good as they are now. I used to substitute his covers for the CD images in my iTunes library.

I'm boggled to see what he's been up to more recently. Namely: creating telesnaps from a "lost" fifth anniversary Doctor Who special which never actually existed.

Follow "View on Twitter" links below to see his whole thread of "telesnaps."

Looks like "Chameleon" impersonates the Brigadier at one point to break into the Black Archive. 😉 And there's a timer counting down, because of course there is.

And... Peter Cushing's Doctor gets fobwatched? Heh.

Les Arnaques sur eBay #1

Derrière ce titre accrocheur, et peut être un peu trop dur pour ce cas-ci, se cache une nouvelle série d’articles qui vise à combattre la contrefaçon sur les produits liés à la série. Car même si elle ne sont pas du niveau de Star Wars, il y a bien des arnaques sur des produits estampillés Doctor Who. Et nous commençons avec ce qui semblerait être une affaire pour quelqu’un qui ne s’y connait pas.

Telesnaps from 'the smugglers'

Telesnaps

"During the 1950s and 60s a freelance photographer called John Cura was commissioned by the BBC to take photos from a TV screen of various series. These covered most scenes in a story and amounted to around 70 stills per episode. They were used as a visual and continuity reference to the episodes by the Doctor Who Production Office and copies were often retained by directors and occasionally cast members as a record of their work.

The standard format that the telesnaps were printed in was as 'contact strips'. The individual pictures are very small, approximately an inch across, but very clear. Occasionally copies of individual telesnaps were ordered, these were enlarged to about 2 inches wide.

It is thought that almost all early episodes of Doctor Who were covered by telesnaps, however the BBC Written Archives only holds copies from The Gunfighters through to The Dominators. Only one episode is missing from this run: Enemy of the World episode 4, it is unknown why this episode is not covered. Other telesnaps have emerged from private hands, most notably from the serial The Crusade, which were rescued when they were about to be thrown out of the Production Office in the late 1970s. Several directors were also known to have kept telesnaps of some of their work."
