Colourised "War games" special will feature actual regeneration, plus "recovered footage"?!
The special edition will also feature recovered footage not seen since the original broadcast.
According to Radio Times,
this new version of the serial will feature a 'lost' piece of Doctor Who history – while the Second Doctor's regeneration into the Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee) originally took place off-screen, the special edition of The War Games will depict the changeover on-screen.
and
We're also promised the new release – which will air on BBC Four and be available on BBC iPlayer – will feature "recovered footage not seen since the original broadcast".

A regeneration is cool, but I hope they go fairly minimalist with it. I like the more...explosive regenerations of the modern era well enough, but I don't think they need to be retconned into past ones.
I really hope they'll do the old fade-aroo like in classic Who...
Oh no wait — after the 60th specials RTD was raving about all the past regenerations potentially being bigenerations? And 2 into 3 was always the vaguest?
...he wouldn't, would he?
I doubt he would, yet I also think he's willing to pull just about anything...
Troughton regenerating into Jo Martin is
confirmeddefinitely on the table.
