This Site Last Modified: 9 October 2003 Updated information is in Red. This site maintained by DeTroyes@Rcn.Com Welcome to the new version of the TARDIS, Hasshin! webpage. Because I have been literally flooded with new images and information, it has become necessary to not only redesign and subdivide the original page in order to make it easier to use, but also to move everything to their own sub-directory on my website. Thus, the redesign of this site. This webpage began as a general information page on something that was really nothing more than a footnote in the history of Doctor Who, namely the show's brief foray into Japan in the 1980's. But yet, because this chapter of Doctor Who history was obscure and almost unknown, interest in the subject has been amazingly high -- and I wish to thank all those people who have expressed interest, provided helpful commentary, and (above all) found the time to provide me with information and especially images. Without them, this site would not be as extensive as it has become. Thank you, everyone. Comments on these and all of my pages are always appreciated. If anyone has anything else they think should be added to this site, please email me at DeTroyes@EnterAct.Com. I am especially looking for a copy of the rumoured DW Doujinshi and of any cameo appearances from Japanese Anime or Manga. Also, screen grabs from the time-travelling sequences of Timestranger would be greatly appreciated. Again, thank you! --Douglas B. Killings GENERAL NOTE: The Japanese use the NTSC broadcast format, which is the same format used in North America (United States, Canada, and Mexico) and much of the Pacific Rim (Taiwan, Phillipines, etc.). |
