Over 100 long-lost Doctor Who episodes found by dedicated fans - in Ethiopia
A group of dedicated Doctor Who fans tracked down at least 100 long-lost episodes of the show gathering dust more than 3,000 miles away in Ethiopia.
It was feared the BBC programmes from the 1960s – featuring the first two doctors William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton – had vanished for all time after the Beeb flogged off a load of old footage.

A television insider said: “It is a triumph and fans everywhere will be thrilled.
