The Savages: animated release in 2025

I read somewhere (probably Doctor Who Magazine) that The Daleks Masterplan is unlikely to be animated as there are so many characters and locations to draw.

They must have made a fortune from Enemy of the World and Web of Fear, so I’m sure they’d find them if they could.

This is also one of the best '60s stories. I’m so happy that this was found!

And would you believe it was widely considered boring and mediocre before anything beyond episode 3 was found?

I have heard of that. That is why I always hope for Troughton stuff to be found. His acting is so much better in motion. Hartnell is also a good actor but his stories work okay in animation or telesnaps.

(Thought I did comment on this already)
Well exciting! I always thought The Savages was an underrated Gem, and now having an Animation will certainly help! Who knows, maybe this one will get reappraisal like The Macra Terror, it would certainly be great!

Still crossing my Fingers for the Daleks Masterplan someday (yes, I am delusional)

It’s a) very small and b) mostly digital, so it wouldn’t take me far, I’m afraid :joy:

No, I’m not going to sell what little I have. I’ve already had to tuck it away so my wife doesn’t have to complain about all my unnecessary ā€œjunkā€ā€¦

Hmm, I should start digging then!
