This episode, recorded back in January, finds Matthew Kresal and Mary Lang reviewing The Masters Of Luxor from the Lost Stories range. Originally intended to be the second ever Doctor Who story before being replaced by Terry Nation's story introducing the Daleks, the unfilmed script was originally published as book in 1992 before Big Finish tackled the story in 2012. In looking at the story, topics discussed include Nigel Robinson's adaptation of the original Anthony Coburn scripts, toned down subtexts, the story's historical context and what the story would have been like had it been made in 1963-64.
