Nine long-lost episodes of Doctor Who which have not been seen since the 1960s have been recovered after they were tracked down to a store room in Nigeria, gathering dust. 
The discovery will cause much excitement for devotees of the long-running series, for which there are dozens of missing episodes dating back to its early years 
The previously lost nine shows were among 11 traced to a television relay station and the find brings back to life an entire six-episode story, while another is almost complete. 
The newly found programswhich introduce the character of Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart, better known to audiences as The Brigadierwill be available on iTunes from today and will later come out on DVD.

    I got caught up that show in the 1980s. “Campy” would describe it.

    If only they would find the missing Johnny Carson episodes.
They were lost when the studios taped over old shows with new ones to save money.

    They’re obviously looking in the wrong places for those tapes.
They should start in Hollywood.
