Animated "Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks" Screening



From TorontoFilm.Net, Sneak Peek the animated six-part adventure "Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks", screening across Canada November 30, 2016, courtesy BBC Worldwide North America and Cineplex Events, in celebration of the story's 50th anniversary:


"...'The Power of the Daleks' is one of the most celebrated 'Doctor Who' adventures, and yet no complete film recordings are known to have survived. The master negatives for 'The Power of the Daleks' were destroyed in an archive purge in 1974. This brand new animation, being released 50 years after its original UK broadcast, is based on the program's audio recordings, surviving photographs, and film clips. 


"The six-part adventure features the 'regeneration' – or as it was then called 'renewal' – of 'First Doctor', 'William Hartnell', into 'Second Doctor', 'Patrick Troughton', following the 'Time Lord' and his companions 'Polly' (Anneke Wills) and 'Ben' (Michael Craze) as they do battle with the 'Daleks' on the planet 'Vulcan'..."


"Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks" is produced and directed by Charles Norton, with character designs from comic book illustrators Martin Geraghty and Adrian Salmon.
