Now, fans around the world are using YouTube to restore episodes from the show's distant past once thought lost to the BBC's own carelessness.
After premiering in 1963 and piling years' worth of taped episodes in the BBC archives, the keepers of the vault decided Doctor Who was taking up too much space. So, multiple episodes from the early to mid-1960s were destroyed. Occasionally, a recovered tape will surface somewhere in the Beeb's sphere of influence, but fans agree that some stories will never be recovered in their entirety.
Well-written Doom, by Mark Waid:
Poorly-written Doom, by Brian Michael Bendis:
Well, as decided by the Telegraph.
Worried officials extinguished the torch and placed it on the bus five times throughout the day as protesters tried to grab the torch and block the relay. At least two activists got almost an arm's length away before they were seized by police.
Another protester threw water at the torch but failed to put it out before being taken away.
And in San Francisco, where the torch is due to arrive Wednesday, three protesters wearing harnesses and helmets climbed up the Golden Gate Bridge and tied the Tibetan flag and two banners to its cables. The banners read "One World One Dream. Free Tibet" and "Free Tibet."
Last week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Penn had met with Colombia's ambassador to the United States to discuss promotion of a free-trade agreement, one that Clinton opposes. Penn apologized Friday for an "error in judgment," and the Colombian government responded a day later by firing Burson-Marsteller.
Clinton and her husband, Bill Clinton, were furious with Penn for going to the meeting, campaign officials said. Trade has been a divisive issue in the Democratic race and a particularly significant one in Pennsylvania, the next state on the primary calendar. The senator from New York has pledged to take a "timeout" from free-trade agreements until their impact on the United States becomes clearer.
Heston died Saturday at his Beverly Hills home, said family spokesman Bill Powers. In 2002, he had been diagnosed with symptoms similar to those of Alzheimer's disease.
He may have been a right-wing lunatic, but the man made soem damn fine movies.
Kung-Fu Hustle is an odd and wonderful film. At its core it is the perfect live-action kung-fu cartoon. It's an artifact from a parallel dimension where Looney Tunes and Bruce Lee mated culturally and produced a rich and flavorful new genre. Shaolin Soccer is also from this glorious universe next door. As I suspect is Stepehen Chao himself.

By the time Maricopa became a city, though, almost half of its land was owned by developers. In 2005, the local school district appointed a superintendent, John Flores, who began pleading with the developers for space for a high school (for a while, Maricopa schools were admitting 300 new students every month). But it was to no avail. Amy Haberbosch, Maricopa’s former director of planning, told me that developers believed high schools lowered property values; she said one developer told her he’d rather build a jail on his property than a high school. . . .
But the idea of lighting the torch at the ancient Olympian site in Greece and then running it through different countries has much darker origins.
It was invented in its modern form by the organisers of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin.
And it was planned with immense care by the Nazi leadership to project the image of the Third Reich as a modern, economically dynamic state with growing international influence.
The new designs will enter circulation gradually throughout the year. It is normal practice for banks to order coins from the Royal Mint to satisfy public demand, which fluctuates over the course of the year. The current coin designs will remain in circulation and as legal tender for the foreseeable future.
*Thanks, Riley!*
