Absolutely mental that they didn’t finish it for the next series. What a waste of resources.

Way better than I'd expected, a really good "making of" that didn't have an end result!

I have the older version where Tom Baker did his "Masterpiece Theatre" impression and the new one with full live-action and animation, finally telling the whole story. And even a proper credit (finally!) for Delia Derbyshire's theme for the show. Excellent.

Great quote from Tom " (sighs) Boy! The BBC farewell parties. Make you long for death sometimes" Gotta love his candour

Love Shada. It's genuinely one of my favourite DW stories. Never understood why Adams hated it so much (maybe it's just because the pet project that he'd originally wanted to do got refused and this had to be produced instead).
Interesting that some of the best bits are serendipitous. The chase sequence being in the daytime really adds to the feeling of Shada being flooded with light and freshness that the location shooting gives the serial and the vocal combo is another highlight that I'm surprised to hear was on a whim.

I just watched the 2017 version with animation and newly filmed scenes. Works really well. Congratulations, BBC.

Pennant Roberts worked on one of my favourite shows, Survivors, a great director.

I very fondly recall a concert tour that the Choir of St John's College gave in Australia in the 1990's.
It sounds like those involved handled the strikes and cancellation with incredible good grace and maturity.
In their place, I'm not sure I could have done so.
Tremendous accolades and gratitude towards everyone who eventually completed and published the story!

Thank God for the audio book with the original actors. Just heard it and it is great.

I just read the book. It's soooo good :) Can't wait to see the story on screen

I've got a HD version of Shada on BluRay and it's absolutely fantastic, the missing portions have been made up with computer animation, the sound has been given a pseudo stereo remix and 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Mix, the original BBC1 continuity at the start has been added and looks clean too, the Dr.Who theme tune has been given a surround makeover using the original elements and the electronic spangles have been found and overdubbed and the end theme is in 5.1 too with the original theme tune elements being stereoised as well and extended with 2 rounds of the middle-eight section plus complete roll-call credits of all the people responsible in the putting together and production of this new release.

Loved this on DVD back in 2012, and now all this time later 6 years on being able to rediscover it complete at last. :)

Just watched Shada. Any fan of Tom Baker would love this. The guy dressed as Bony M was hilarious but it worked and the ending was brilliant.
