Starring Patrick Troughton as the Doctor, the series originally aired between 20th May and 1st July 1967. Six of the original seven live action episodes were lost in the purge of the BBC archive soon after transmission. However, audio-only recordings of all seven episodes have survived and have been used to create this new presentation of which also features the original surviving second episode.
Synopsis:
