Review Tropic (1979)

[Doctor Omega]

That's just me trying to convince myself that anyone visits this forum.

 

[Doctor Omega]

the BBC hadn't got a complete set of Triangle

I understand that it is the one and only episode that they were missing, but even so, it makes you wonder what other stuff from the early eighties and perhaps even later went walkies or got "lost" somehow.. It doesn't sound a very professional set up.

I remember that they found a huge scratch in the master tape of TIMELASH. Maybe not too coincidentally it was the very scene that had been used on THE COLIN BAKER YEARS VHS release of that story.

I reckon JNT had borrowed the master tape for the clip and forgot to rewind it or something. Still a bit shoddy that the BBC seemed to take little care of their archive.

The BBC cares only for it's profit and sending the luvvies on expensive holidays to promote their shows!
