Kazaa stinks!
Yes, you heard me!

Amongst all the porn and other mainstream crap I could care less about, I can't find "The Dalek Masterplan" episode 2, "Day of Armageddon" for the life of me!

It was recovered by the BBC more than a month ago and these recovered episodes manage to get leaked into the general population, and had been even before they were officially marketed...

Waah! :cry:

Should they officially release it, I definitely would buy it. But I hate waiting and we humans just happen to be ephemeral... x(

2. Try Bit Torrent...


Kazaa is for AOL users and inbreds...

Search for Bit Torrent and download it from the official site.

Than go to www.suprnova.org and search for it.

Get rid of Kazaa, it is a joke and full of viruses and spyware.

7. Kazaa Lite is Kazaa for the informed
Edited on Tue Feb-17-04 06:59 PM by RatTerrier
All the crap cleaned out of it.

I've tried other ones, but Shareaza doesn't work on my system (can't get a connection). Blubster used to be great, but is ridden with spyware.

Direct Connect is full of warez snobs that demand you share at least 100GB to jump on their hub. Fuck 'em.

Quite a few file sharing progs are tough to configue on my system due to Norton and my router.

So I'm stuck with Kazaa Lite. It's the only one I have luck with.

What you see on Suprnova.org is real files, no fake stuff like on the other P2P programs.

3. Maybe I can help
Here in Aus the ABC has recently dedicated it's 6:00 pm time slot for the next few years to repeating all episodes from all series.

I'm not such a fan, but if I notice either episode on then I can tape it for you.

Tonight is...
The Dominators
6.05pm - 6.30pm | ABC
(G) Sci-Fi

The Doctor eventually defeats the Dominators by intercepting the seed capsule as it is dropped and placing it on board their ship.

Patrick Troughton, Nicolette Pendrell, Ronald Allen

If you know all the episode orders you might be able to work out when I should keep looking ( as far as I can tell this is from season 6, 1968)

5. You're lucky!!!
You get it regularly on TV. I had to buy all the tapes and watch them degrade in quality over the last 12 years... :D

It's a lovely thought on your part, but they'd already passed the Hartnell era, which included the aforementioned Dalek story. Given how recent it was recovered, I doubt they'd have gotten the clearances required to release it anyway.

6. Oh well :-)
I guess it's the thought the counts, but I'll keep an eye out anyway.

I have to say I love my (publicly funded) ABC though, the 6:00 pm timeslot has always been dedicated to "these types of programs" (Dr Who, The Goodies, Monkey Magic, that sort of thing) and to replay all episodes of Dr Who in what is effectively prime time is pretty big of them. No wonder the right wing govt hates them, ha ha ha.
