I'm into old internet lore, this mindset is weirdly common with people who discuss it. Someone abandoning an online account needs a Big Reason. People assume death or major scandal before they assume bored or fed up interacting with other fans.

My Dad had a bootleg of The Five Doctors followed by one of these. Definitive memory of Fawlty Towers is the theme tune cutting in, with wobbly picture and highly variable speed after watching 5 Docs for the thousandth time. That thing where the tape lost its mind when you started recording.

I'd be happy to keep all the things you mention, and just change one thing - I wish he wasn't horrible to Peri for no reason. Yelling at or condescending her at random moments is very effective at undermining anything else that might be endearing

Hi Pip! We were talking on twitter about Doctor Who on UK Gold. I'd like to share some new stuff with you. Could you please do the thing that lets me message you on here?

May have aired like this in 1978, 1979, 1984 & 1986. (I have no solid data on when they got new copies from BBC and when they reused their old ones). But I've heard enough separate memories of these green credits to be sure it looked like this for everyone in Australia on at least one broadcast.

Another Spearhead oddity I've never had an explanation for - Episode 1 had green credits in Australia for at least the 1984 airing. Was this some kind of early draft that got replaced with the red version? A very obscure technical glitch?

I think they copied the titles from one of the adjacent episodes. This is an off air of Episode 2 airing in Canada, with no Episode 2 caption. Guess this is why it didn't have one!
