Classic Doctor Who Director Derek Martinus Has Passed Away


Derek Martinus who has directed some of the more popular stories including the first regeneration story The Tenth Planet has passed away at the age of 82.  His credits include Blakes 7 and Z Cars and 26 episodes of Doctor Who including Galaxy 4, Mission to the Unknown, The Tenth Planet, The Evil of the Daleks , The Ice Warriors and the first color Doctor Who story Spearhead from Space. Unfortunately quite a bit of his stories are missing but those that do exist are some of the classic stories from the shows history and ones I like to watch over and over.
