As I recall, from seeing color publicity shots from the time, weren't
the Doctor's trousers yellow checks, not the gray shown in those pics?

Hmmm... you've got me on that one. <shrugs> Apart from seeing the actual
episodes in b/w I can't recall any of the colour publicity shots.

I'm sure somebody somewhere will pick up on it if true though.

Yes....looks as if this was how it looked if it was broadcast in color.

If I recall from the recon of Marco Polo which had many colour pics, the
Doctor’s trousers were a pale grey and dark grey check.

Rupert Bear’s were yellow …

He's a special case since nobody is sure if he is even brown or white. But
his trousers are definitely yellow with checks.

You really didn’t know this name
Or all the pages whence he came?

This children’s star in yellow check
With scarlet jumper, scarf round neck

The Daily Express’ cartoon bear
Whose tales were told four panels square

‘Twas very twee but even worse
Each panel’s scene was tagged in verse.

Yet underneath, as if in shame
Each story was retold again!

In much more detail, and in prose
To narrate how the story goes.

I imagine quite a few non-UK readers will have been confused by the

Bravo for the parody, though I think you were rather harsh. It may have
seemed twee to adults, but to millions of six-year-olds (and I was once
one of them) it was great stuff. Almost 70 years later, I still have
fond memories of the annuals.

Memories - I still have 6 of the annuals (including one with “magic
painting”, watercolour bound into the paper of the pages so it coloured up
perfectly when wiped with a wet paintbrush). But even as a child I only
wanted to read the prose version of the stories. The doggerel was terrible
to me.

Dave, there is no 175 minutes colour version... so you can't see it. It's
a 75 minute edit, colourised. Nobody is making you watch it.

You can of course see the original seven episode version of "The Daleks"
in b/w. That is 175 minutes long. But if you haven't seen that version of
"The Daleks" by now (and it's nearly 60 years old), then just what have
you been doing with your time in fandom?

They are not colourising episodes for you. But some of us are actually
interested in how this project turned out.

Watch, don't watch, it's your choice.

We did have the 7" single of "We All Stand Together" by Paul McCartney in
our house... is that acceptable enough to get me in to the Rupert the Bear
Usenet Fan Club? (aka Rupert UFC)

Bom, bom bom ... Bom, bom bom ...

I doubt I was thinking of Rupert Bear, as, until now, I'd never heard
of, much less seen, him.

And, based on the links posted here, he doesn't resemble William
Hartnell even a little.
