I'm interested in comparing notes.Matthew Turnagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115327182071167651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-30059071283433850512012-01-06T15:51:29.900-04:002012-01-06T15:51:29.900-04:00I've read a number of reasons for it, but that...I've read a number of reasons for it, but that's as reasonable as any.<br /><br />I think the statute of limitations on those spoilers has lapsed, we're fine.Siskoidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266365376486695812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-37221716084489543322012-01-06T15:39:47.709-04:002012-01-06T15:39:47.709-04:00My understanding is that the reason for the editin...My understanding is that the reason for the editing was not so much to do with any production issues, but to get to the Daleks as soon as possible. As I understand it, Sidney Newman really wanted to lead of Season 2 with the Dalek Invasion of Earth, but couldn't swap the broadcast order because (SPOILER FROM 1964) of Susan's departure at the end of that story. He decided the next best thing was to trim Planet of Giants from 4 to 3 parts to get the Daleks on screen sooner.Matthew Turnagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115327182071167651noreply@blogger.com
