There are highs and lows of being a Doctor Who fan. Sure, you have 60+ years of content to keep you entertained during the long breaks between new seasons, but that has a big drawback: not every episode in that long and storied history is available. During the 1960s, the BBC routinely would tape over existing content while making new shows.

According to the BBC, two episodes from the iconic “The Daleks’ Master Plan” arc of Doctor Who have been recovered in an “eclectic” collection by the charity Film is Fabulous. Check out a clip from the lost episodes below:
