Status of missing episodes

edit

There is a cryptic statement on the BBC web page. Have episodes been recovered or is it an announcement for something else ? 92.147.7.145 (talk) 07:23, 16 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Not cryptic at all. In fact I just removed a similar sentence from the main text, where it was linked to http://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/08/09/dads-army-the-smoking-gun-for-doctor-who-missing-episodes/.
The BBC website simply isn't fully up to date with everything from the past. Thousands of episodes... For example I've been updating the Meet the Ancestors pages last year and there the BBC pages were not just missing a few but also actually wrong. That show is currently still not done. So the cold hard truth, this means absolutely nothing. It would be too far fetched to discuss that in the text so I removed it. Spiny Norman (talk) 17:36, 3 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Some one has the wrong idea about Australian B/C signals. Australia has used the 625-line color PAL system since 1956. At this time 625 was just a proposed standard in the UK, and was not implemented until 1969. The chroma signal was normally absent in Australian broadcasts, but it was at the discretion of the stations. Some stations did test xmits with active chroma from 1969 on wards. (A small number of imported UK color sets were on sale then.) It was in March '75 that chroma became mandatory. Until about 1970 Australian TVs were manufactured in Australia, as no other country used 625-PAL at that time. New Zealand adopted the UK 405-line standard and the country was flooded with cheap sets imported from the UK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.33.245.166 (talk) 03:53, 28 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
