*'''8 January''': I wish to make it clear to our readers that the "Is This the List of Found Episodes?" that was sent (anonymously?) to and published by [http://doctorwhoworldwide.com/2013/11/18/missing-episodes-is-this-the-list-of-found-episodes/3/ Doctor Who Archive / Worldwide] in November last year is ''NOT'' the text designed to prank hackers / snoopers that was 'hidden' in the source code in July. Nor is it the "placeholder text" that was also 'hidden' elsewhere on the site circa March.
 
 
*That "List" is clearly a ''fake'' designed to look like it was extracted from the [[Bicycling Chains]] source code. But it lacks the correct templates, formatting and layout coding required for this MediaWiki to function. Without the correct coding, text like that would be rendered a jumbled nonsensical mess -- as displayed [[Faked Code|HERE]]. There are also two sentences that contain phrasing which does not comply with the house-style adopted for the site.
 
 
*The distinction between the "placeholder" text (held since March 2013) and the  "hacker / snooper prank" (added in July) has become muddied somewhat, and that is probably where much of the confusion lies.
 
*'''3 January''': Happy New Year! Tom Baker attended the Science Fiction Festival in Rotterdam in March 1976, which was covered by the press in the [[Netherlands#TOM_BAKER_2|Netherlands]].

2026 Updates

  • 12 May: 30 years ago today the TV Movie had its WORLDWIDE debut in Canada. But how many times was it repeated there? And how many times in the days that followed was it shown in the United States? We went looking and were surprised by what we found... Who were WIC and Craig Broadcast Systems? Why was Fox's planned 31 December 1996 repeat cancelled at the eleventh hour? The answers to these questions and more can be found on :
  • 27 April: We've fully revised The Daleks Master Plan page following the surprise return of two episodes.
  • 26 April: The Bicycling Chains have been revised; further research into the difference between Suppressed and Stored Field prints reveals that many of what we thought to be the former were in fact the latter!
  • 3 March: Updates to West Virginia: WVPB and WSWP now have separate pages.
  • 14 February: Newspaper listings (in Greek) identify some of the Tom Baker stories that aired in Greece in August 1991.
