Two Lost Doctor Who Episodes Found 150
First time accepted submitter crow writes "Two episodes of Doctor Who from the 1960s, thought to have been destroyed in the 1970s, have been found. Both were in the hands of a private collector who didn't know what he had. Like most episodes of the time, these were half-hour shows, part of a four-part story, and portions of both stories are still missing."

Man, that doctor who series is so damn expensive. I have a complete known collection of stargate, sanctuary, star wars, and others I can't think at the moment, but when I walk past the movie isle at frys, and I see the price and size of DR WHO, I just keep walking every time. That's the fucking truth.
Don't forget the ones being recovered from Space! (Score:2, Interesting)

You do know, of course, that there's an entire division of the Time Corps that does nothing but stop people from killing Hitler? Without the Nazi invasion of Russia, Stalin took all of Europe, most of Africa and parts of Asia in World War II (which began in 1937 with the Soviet invasion of China and the subsequent Soviet annexation of Poland in 1939). Fighting between the Japanese (who were also invading China) and the Soviets prevented the Japanese from attacking Pearl Harbor, and the United States didn't enter the war until 1952 after the A-bombing of New York City. After the Soviets developed the atomic bomb it was very difficult to stop them from taking the entire world. Ethnic purges in the occupied territories killed over two hundred million people.
Sadly, it's better this way.
