Vintage DWB 1990 Doctor Dr Who David Whitakers The Power Off The Daleks Photonovel - Unsold Former Shop Stock. Released originally in 1988, this is the 1990 reprint of the photonovel. Between 1967 and 1978, the BBC routinely deleted archive programmes for various practical reasons—lack of space, scarcity of materials, and a lack of rebroadcast rights. As a result, 97 of 253 episodes from the programme's first six years are currently missing, primarily from seasons 3, 4 and 5, leaving 26 serials incomplete. Many more were considered lost until recovered from various sources, mostly overseas broadcasters. In 1966 Patrick Troughton took over the part of the Doctor from William Hartnell at the end of the serial The Tenth Planet. Patricks first story as the second Doctor was The Power Of The Daleks, which sadly suffered the fate of the tapes being wiped, so no episodes exist from this classic episode. In 1988, DWB decided to release a Photonovel of the missing serial using telesnaps that had been taken during the production of the programme, These telesnaps had previously been printed weekly in the Dr Who Magazine, but now a complete omnibus edition was released for fans to enjoy this classic missing story.  This fantastic photonovel includes an introduction from June Barry Whitaker and a foreword by the director Christopher Barry, the entire six part serial in episode format and some wonderful additional colour and Black & White photos.
