MMM is proud to bring you our continuing series of commentary tracks from Season 1 of Doctor Who.  This week starts our look at the fourth ever story of Doctor Who – Marco Polo.

Bit of a tricky one this one.  A bit of a first for MMM – this is the first time ever we have done a commentary for a story that has never had an official release, anywhere.  It’s a missing story you see, the BBC decided in their wisdom to get rid of it.

But luckily some enterprising chaps took many photos of the actual video when it existed, and a lot of other enterprising chaps made audio recordings of the episodes.  Put them together and you have a missing episode reconstruction, which you can quite easily get hold of if you are handy with a particular type of search engine and know how to type in the words Marco Polo.

So please, source out one of the many excellent reconstructions of Marco Polo then join along with the MMM team.

    Wow, I’m impressed by your dedication.

    I commented back when you started this mammoth enterprise, wondering how you would cope with the missing episodes and if you would commentate over recons? I wasn’t being entirely serious so I am very pleasantly surprised to see this commentary appear!

    It’s great to have you guys back and being so prolific.
