Lost episode?
editThe article claims:
- The story was adapted for the 1968 BBC series with Peter Cushing. The episode is now lost.
How can this be? This particular episode was shown on PBS just a few years ago (about 2008). Bill Jefferys (talk) 18:40, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- My apologies. That's the 1986 series that was shown recently, not the 1968 series. I'm not dislexic, but my eyes played tricks on me. Bill Jefferys (talk) 18:46, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
Ironic foretelling of World War I
edit- Ironically in 1914 [ten years after the story was published] World War I did break out..due to part to Wilhelms hasty actions [among others]...it did indeed bring about the beginning of the end of the British Empire..a hundred thousand lives...and expedidure of a hundred million pounds just as the Prime Minister had feared...would happen! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.5.89.217 (talk) 15:32, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
- I'm afraid I've had to revert your addition, interesting though it is. If you can find a reliable source making that connection, we can include it. EEng 23:39, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
