The final part of my survey of missing episodes rumours in Doctor Who fanzines is now up on my blog. Please read it here: tinyurl.com/90sRumours2. There’s an amusing (I think) bit comparing a 90s prediction of most likely returns with actual subsequent recoveries. Please share if you enjoy this.

In case you missed it, last weekend I posted the first half of my survey of missing episodes rumours in 1990s Doctor Who fanzines, as a follow-up to the piece about the 1980s rumours. You can read it here: tinyurl.com/90sRumours1. The second half goes up next weekend.
