\If you haven't heard by now, on Friday the BBC announced that 11 episode from the Patrick Troughton - all of The Enemy of the World and all but one episode of The Web of Fear - had been found in Nigeria and returned to the BBC. The BBC have realised them onto iTunes where they shot straight to be the top of the TV charts.
To have even just one missing episode is great news. To have nearly two whole stories (especially the one that features the first appearance of the then Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart) is excellent news (and in the 50th anniversary year too). So I find myself in the somewhat surreal situation of having thought I'd seen every Doctor Who story in existence, I'm now watching old Who, but to me it's new Who.
So the brings the total number of missing episodes down to 97. Surely this proves that they must be out there somewhere?
