They even dropped in the words 'Bad Wolf' written on a wall just to tie in with new Who for those who want it.

I would like the BBC to reconsider the approach of adding annimation into the lost episodes The Troughton era has many episodes missing in its vaults with audio intact which should be re-released with animated segments and original audio They did this before and mostly it worked, but stopped due to cost Come on BBC reconsider this |

I agree, they need to animate 'Evil of the Daleks' IMO.
And some posters are sounding like they think I don't like the classic CGI. IMO; they need more of it in new who. New Who is too fake, but they need to balance them out. EG: Use Models for Spaceships again, and just finish them with CGI, and try to replace the Space shots/Exterior Shots in the classic series with the new designs, but make it the Model/CGI mix thingy. The only bad thing about that is that it means we will get less classic DVDs a year, and it is slightly expensive. |

The BBC already remaster and give us the choice of classic V remaster
But with bigger cash revenue that dr who now brings in, I would like the BBC to reconsider the approach of adding annimation into the lost episodes The Troughton era has many episodes missing in its vaults with audio intact which should be re-released with animated segments and original audio They did this before and mostly it worked, but stopped due to cost Come on BBC reconsider this

When I first watched the Invasion, after a while you stop noticing that it's animated.

I think the old shows have a certain charm about them.
I vote they be left well alone |

Are you really saying that the CGI Mara isn't a vast improvement on the puppet snake in Kinda? To me, the new effects add to the stories not detract from them, but as daveboy says you've got the option to view the original so everyone's a winner.

To be honest when we first saw Prisoner Zero in it's natural state I thought 'Mara'. The CGI this time round hasn't been that brilliant. I loved the 'new' Gallifrey but then I love the 'old' one as well. Some things work, some don't, but there's still no reason to diss the classic series by judging it by recent standards, like some people for some reason have problems watching monochrome so voluntarily miss out on some of the finest films and TV ever made

Do you reckon that the BBC will ever release improved versions of classic episodes?
EG: Changing the exterior shots of the 'Death Zone' in 'The 5 Doctors', to add the orange glow and dome around it, or changing the Dalek Voices/Special effects in from 'The Daleks'-'Remembrance of the Daleks' to be the same as 'Dalek'-'Journeys End'. ![]() |

I think they should do New Who in the style of Old. That forest in last week's episode would have been much improved if it were some potted palms in Studio TC3.

I did a 'Next Time' trailer for 'Terror of the Zygons' - and added in a new Skarasen. I certainly think this story could do with some updated CGI. It's a brilliant story that is spoilt by one particularly bad special effect.
I also updated the Pertwee/Baker regeneration scene with new music and special effects. Not everyone's cup of tea, I know, but an idea of how a Classic episode would turn out with a modern |

and the music over the admittedly improved regeneration sequence is just cheesy and intrusive (as, indeed, it often is in the new series itself) robbing the scene of some of its dignity. Sometimes, less is more.

You're not the only person to have said that. It's a real 50/50 split between those who dislike the lack of music over the original scene and think the Murray Gold music is an improvement - and those who felt the lack of music actually gave the original scene some gravitas.
