This unique project matches the soundtrack recording of a classic "Doctor Who" television story with a visual slideshow of 'telesnaps' showing images from the lost film recording. Of the 100 plus episodes of "Doctor Who" which are absent from the television archives, only two elements survive: off-air sound recordings and 'telesnaps'. For each 25 minute episode of "Doctor Who", approximately 70 off-screen photographs exist. Since 1998 BBC Audio has successfully published the soundtracks of these missing stories, with addition linking narration. This new MP3-CD series now marries the sound with the telesnaps, to present a slideshow of images from the episodes and going some way to 'reconstructing' the original film episodes. In "The Highlanders", the Doctor (Patrick Troughton) and his companions Ben and Polly arrive on Culloden Moor in 1745. There they become embroiled in the bloody battle between Highlanders and Redcoats, and befriend a new Tardis occupant: Jamie McCrimmon (Frazer Hines).
