Arty Facts

Arty Facts with Master J is a show about working in the arts. Today: Master J is joined by music producer, Doctor Who super-fan, missing episode campaigner, unofficial continuity adviser and controversy magnet, Ian Levine. In this first instalment of The Ian Levine Tapes (part of a five hour recording made nearly two years ago), Ian explains his lifelong relationship with Doctor Who, his role in helping identify, preserve and recover episodes once thought lost forever, and his latest mission: using AI, production photographs and surviving soundtracks to reconstruct every missing episode – a project that reportedly cost more than £100,000 and took years to complete. Expect strong opinions, fierce passions, lengthy digressions and for Master J to occasionally get a word in edgeways. For more information visit Master J on Facebook. [Repeats Friday 3.30pm.]
