[edit] Episode Information
I have seen the 3rd and 4th episodes of this serial, but not the earlier episodes. I was thinking of simply writing the summaries for those two episodes, and leaving the other two blank for others to write, like so:

Summary
However, since I haven't seen to first two episodes in this serial, I don't know the name of any of the characters besides the Doctor, Romana, K-9 and Meglos. If someone could tell me the names of some of the major characters in this serial, or even better, write summaries for the first two serials, it would be very helpful.

- Actually, the format for the other articles tend to mash everything into one long plot synopsis (mostly because it's difficult sometimes to summarize neatly into cliffhangers). May I suggest that you simply write the summary for Episodes 3 and 4 as one section, and leave the other half as a section-stub? For characters, you can have a look at http://www.drwhoguide.com/who.htm - the Doctor Who Reference Guide for guidance (just don't commit copyviolations. :)). --khaosworks July 6, 2005 08:16 (UTC)

- Yeah, I knew that the plots where all written as one singular plot, but I just thought it would be easier to put it into that format until there is a summary for each section. But, I'll just write it that way. Thanks. Cyclone49 6 July 2005 11:23 (UTC)
[edit] Sound goof?
I've removed this from the "broadcast and releases" section:
-
- An apparent goof occurs as the end credits for Episode 4 are running: The theme music's pitch slows down and the tempo speeds up, but the running time itself is not affected. (It either occurs in the reruns currently broadcast in Canada on BBCK or it happened on the original BBC1 broadcast back in 1980.)
If we don't know whether this was an error on the original broadcast or just an error on the tape used by BBC Kids in Canada, we probably shouldn't have it in the article. If anyone knows more about this, especially if there's a reliable source discussing it, we can re-add it with the definitive info. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 07:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's as originally broadcast — some sort of sound filter used on the final scene was accidentally left running across the closing titles in the edit. I've only seen this discussed on the RT forum, though. Angmering 11:13, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

- Sounds like you know more than I do (and more than the person who added the comment to the article). Feel free to restore the comment with more precise/accurate wording. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 18:38, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

- Problem is I don't know if there are any published citations for it. Fourth Doctor Handbook or the TV Companion might have it, I suppose, but I don't have either of those with me here in the back of beyond. Angmering 20:20, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

- There's nothing in The Television Companion, and I don't have access to the Fourth Doctor Handbook. I suppose there's no great harm in leaving it here on the talk page for now. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 20:47, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
