Talk:The Power of the Daleks (TV story)

First Doctor TV story
Currently this page is in the "First Doctor television stories" category. I realize that it is because a picture of the First Doctor momentarily appears when the Second Doctor looks at himself in the mirror. However, my question is "why are we using this kind of criteria to consider this a First Doctor story?" By this reasoning, shouldn't we also consider every episode where 1's photo appears to be a First Doctor story? That includes episodes like The Eleventh Hour, Nightmare in Silver, Vincent and the Doctor, and The Vampires of Venice. That reasoning sounds silly to me, but I wanted to post here before removing the category. -- Bold  Clone  00:15, January 26, 2016 (UTC)

Archive status
"All six episodes are missing. The original broadcast video was wiped, and no 16mm telerecordings exist in the BBC Archives." This only applies to the first five episodes. There never was a broadcast video for the sixth episode. It was transmitted from a 35mm film print (obviously since destroyed), recorded from 625 line cameras. Of course, the 16mm copies made for overseas sales of part six have also been destroyed. 165.225.80.59talk to me 11:50, August 9, 2016 (UTC)

Time period?
I noticed that all of the characters from this story are categorised as being 21st century individuals, yet I've seen no indication on this page, or in the episode itself (from what I can recall) that lends credence to this label. The novelisation's page says "the near future." Does this page need recategorising or do the character pages? Memnarc ☎  06:48, October 12, 2016 (UTC)
