Display error

When I view this page, I see the bottom of the text box on the right hand side of the screen overlying the table of episodes. I don't know how to fix this other than to insert a few blank lines, and this might not work properly on all systems. Can someone who knows more about it fix this?

Telesnaps are frames of footage!

"Telesnps are not frames of footage but soft focus photos of John Cura's tv" - by this logic the telerecordings are not true footage either as they're just series of photos of a tiny, flat TV screen. Davhorn (talk) 21:27, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, if you will. In the telesnaps case the photographs are of a television playing a video feed, so "field " would be the objective term. A frame of footage would be a frame of film. MartinSFSA (talk) 03:42, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the telesnaps were taken with the exposure lasting 1/25th of a second, so they do contain a complete video frame, just like the telerecordings that weren't made with field suppression. Davhorn (talk) 17:01, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Footprints

I really think this article should mention what the footprints from the end of "The Edge of Destruction" are, especially as there are apparently no sci-fi elements in this serial. After all, it's the one thing most people reading this article will want to know. U-Mos (talk) 18:52, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

most photographed episode

during an offical director/fan recreation* of splicing the sound track with all the photos taken there was a brief commentary at the start saying that ontop of being the most colorful and having the greatest wardrobe to work with this DR who was offically the most photographed episode ever made. this is what allowed the crew to sucessfully recreate this episode even with non of the original visual tape surviving. because of this achivment i think we should toss this on the page. may need someone to view the episode to confirm who it is that said this as I can not tell actors and famous people apart from another person on the street. but if it was part of the original crew then that makes it a credited fact.

official in the sense that BBC recognise it as the only legit version of the episode in existance and the most completed version avaliable152.91.9.153 (talk) 05:07, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
