[net.tv.drwho] Parallel universes

hughes@mother.DEC (Gary Hughes - CSSE uVAX & AI Systems Group) (04/11/84)

While not quite a parallel universe, I read in a recent Dr Who magasine 
that there is a story in the next Davidson series (not due to be shown in 
New England till september 84) where there are two planets at opposite 
points in the same universe.

What makes this story sound interesting is that two Doctors arrive (one on 
each planet) at about the same time. One is Davidson of course and the 
other is William Hartnell, using some recently discovered footage that 
never made it into a story (title 'The Hidden Planet' by Malcolm Hulke).

Carole Ann Ford (Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter) appears in the old 
footage and the new, although playing different characters, I think.

The story originally had one of the planets as Earth, but that has been 
changed since it conflicted with Earth's twin being Mondas in the first 
cyberman story.

Any UK readers care to tell us what series/story they are up to. I have 
heard that Australia is currently getting the series that includes that 
regeneration of the Doctor into Colin Baker.
