[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 435552, member: 27"] [I]Spearhead From Space [/I]is the only oldWho story I recall being filmed (on 16mm film) rather than videotaped. Apparently the video cameramen union went on strike around that time but the film cameramen didn't, so they were employed to do this story out of necessity. It is a fortunate situation because it gives the episode an extra "umph" visually as they transitioned to the new, Earth-bound Doctor and to color/colour. [/QUOTE]
