Animated ‘Doctor Who’ Coming to NZ Cinemas This November

BBC Worldwide ANZ and Rialto Cinemas today announced a limited-run theatrical screening of Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks animated series from Saturday 12 November for one week only. The cinema event will also feature exclusive bonus content including interviews with members of the original cast.

Thought to be lost forever, The Power of the Daleks is the missing third serial of the fourth season of Doctor Who. No complete film recordings or master negatives of The Power of the Daleks are known to have survived an archive purge in 1974. This new animation is recreated from original audio, photographs, and surviving film clips.

Kiwi Whovians will be able to enjoy the event in select Rialto Cinemas. Tickets can be purchased by visiting www.rialto.co.nz for further information on participating cinemas, or at the cinema box offices.
