lyrics

Quest For Web Of Fear 5

When I walked through the gate In 1978, of the BBC video Archive
Come to see if they knew If they had any Who In particular Web Of Fear 5
Well I asked Pamela And she ummed and she ahhed
Then she told me they all had been lost
Yes they all had been wiped Or taped over with "Sykes"
It was something to do with the cost

So I'm on a Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5, Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5.
If it still survives, in a foreign archive, and if we're still alive, then we'll watch it

Well I wrote a complaint, and they said I was quaint, and why should a man care at my age
Cos the memory cheats they're no good for repeats, and with that I flew into a rage,
For how dare they destroy, what I watched as a boy, and helped shape the man i am today, And 'twas then I resolved, that I would find them all, somehow there must be a way.

So I'm on a Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5, Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5.
If it still survives, in a foreign archive, and if we're still alive, then we'll watch it

I wrote to the George Orwell estate, and they told me that I'd have to wait.
I wrote to the John Cura estate,and they told me that I'd have to wait..

So I thought that I'd type this, letter off to Cyprus, 'cos I heard they had "Reign Of Terror" 4,
But they gave me a phone, and they said it'd been blown, up in a recent civil war,
But I was overjoyed when, they found "Masterplan" 10, in the basement of a Mormon church, But it ain't over yet, there's still plenty to get, if you believe just join me in my search.

So I'm on a Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5, Quest for "Web Of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear", Quest for "Web of Fear" 5.
If it still survives, in a foreign archive, and if we're still alive, then we'll watch it

I wrote to the George Orwell estate, and they told me that I'd have to wait.
I wrote to the John Cura estate,and they told me that I'd have to wait..

Quest For Masterplan 8

When I saw the message
From Paul Vanezis
On behalf of BBC Worldwide
Saying that Phil Morris
Had recovered 9 ep
Isodes including Web Of Fear 5

Well I grinned like a loon
And I jumped on itunes
And I watched 5 again and again
But soon just like Peggy Lee
I thought “Is that all there be?”
And in my head I heard this refrain

We got to go on a
Quest For Masterplan 8, Quest for Masterplan Quest for Masterplan 8
Wouldn’t that be great
To see Trantis’s fate
So if it’s not too late
Let’s try and find it

Official info was sparse
As I attempted to parse
An admittance from Paul V’s denial
Cos if I’m not in error
Wasn’t the Macra Terror
One of the originally rumoured pile?

And some are saying that even
Mission and Feast of Steven
Could be part of this omni rumoured haul
So now all bets are off
I’ll shouting like Prof. Zarroff
Nothing in ze vorld can stop me watching them all!

We got to go on a
Quest For Masterplan 8, Quest for Masterplan Quest for Masterplan 8
Wouldn’t that be great
To see Trantis’s fate
So if it’s not too late
Let’s try and find it

Go and ask Richard Bignell
If a transmission signal
Could survive 45 years in space?

Or could a man’s brain retain, the sight
Of Daleks playing trains
And if so could the image be traced?

And if it’s true that you You OLO
Then let’s get Marco Polo
before those who first watched it expire

Cos I’ll tell you this son
When 97 becomes none
Only then am I gonna retire!

And join me now on the Quest for Masterplan, Quest for Masterplan Quest for Masterplan 8
Wouldn’t that be great
To see Trantis’s fate
So if it’s not too late
Let’s try and find it
