KTCA PBS Doctor Who Hartnell introduction (1980s)

Captured from an ancient VHS dub of an off-air copy of "An Unearthly Child", as broadcast on the Minneapolis/St. Paul PBS station KTCA 2. KTCA used to show a lot of love for Doctor Who in the late 80s - early 90s, airing Pertwee on Friday nights, Hartnell/Troughton on Saturday mornings, and Baker/Davison/C Baker/McCoy on Saturday nights. This clip is the brief introduction that would run before the Hartnell episodes during the late 1980s

I remember this intro so well. I have this recorded somewhere, too, but thank you for posting it.

Vision and technology of it’s time…yep, cardboard sets, bad acting, effects on a shoestring budget😂

While going through my old VHS tapes, I found a cleaner version of that Hartnell intro. Plus, as an added bonus, it also contained an advertisement for the first Doctor Who convention that came to the Twin Cities: KTCA Doctor Who - May 1986 - William Hartnell Episodes Disclaimer and Festival Advertisement

Much thanks for that! I was first shocked, in 1985, when they went from "Revelation of the Daleks" (where I was hyped and ready to see what would happen next week), to William Hartnell's era. I quickly became a fan of Hartnell's era...
