"The Feast of Steven" is an episode of the famous British sci-fi television series Doctor Who, from the serial "The Daleks Masterplan", that aired on Christmas, 1965. Unfortunately however, it was wiped, along with many other episodes of the show. Luckily, however, many screencaps, telesnaps, do exist, as well as the full audio tracks, 8mm film recordings, and surviving clips/behind the scenes footage/home videos do exist, and were used to reconstruct these missing episodes, along with some 16mm prints of previously missing episodes. However, "The Feast of Steven" has no surviving footage, since it is the only episode that was never telerecorded (the method of transferring from video tape to 16mm, for sending and broadcasting on television stations overseas), because it had little to do with the actual plot of the serial, and because the BBC didn't want to air a dark and grim episode on Christmas. Though, it is possible that somewhere, exists an 8mm recording of a scene, from that episode.
