Did You Know?
Trivia | The original pilot episode was rediscovered in 1978 in a mislabeled film can. After an archive purge by the BBC between 1972 and 1978, the film survived by chance and was originally thought lost forever. See more » |
Goofs | Peri Brown is American, but often pronounces words in Nicola Bryant's English accent. See more » |
Movie Connections | Edited into BBC Future Generations (1998). See more » |
Crazy Credits | The tradition of showing The Doctor's face in the opening titles was not introduced until Patrick Troughton's tenure with the program was under way. During Jon Pertwee's era, the producers experimented with changing the opening credits and music. One of the rejected opening credits was accidentally included on some prints of the story "Carnival of Monsters" that were broadcast overseas. See more » |
