Timeline

1969

Stuart Humphryes (born 10 December 1969) is an English multimedia artist for print, film and television, and a social media content creator, chiefly known for his work enhancing early colour photography.

His photo enhancement book The Colors of Life was published in 2023.

He first rose to prominence colourising the British television series Doctor Who.

2005

In 2005 Humphryes colourised Tele-snaps for issue 2 of Nothing at the End of the Lane – the magazine of Doctor Who Research and Restoration – in which he was interviewed about his colourisation work.

2006

He is widely known by his alias "BabelColour", a public persona that was created in 2006 with the launch of his YouTube channel.

Humphryes is principally known for the enhancement of early colour photography, such as Autochromes and Paget plates.

He has popularised the autochrome process amongst the general public, with over 200,000 followers on his autochrome-enhancement Twitter feed.

In interviews, Humphryes has stated that his photographic enhancement work includes the following steps: The digital removal of physical flaws; the restoration/recreation of any missing sections of the image; removal of dirt and blemishes; removal of staining or colour bleed; re-adjustment of saturation and luminance levels; colour rebalancing; noise reduction; and the employment of deep learning neural-network algorithms to remove grain whilst enhancing detail definition.

2008

He returned to this publication in 2008 to colourise the cover of their omnibus reprint of issues 1 and 2.

2012

In 2012 Humphryes wrote a treatise on Doctor Who entitled 'Teatime and an Open Mind' for the non-fiction book You and Who.

The book's editor J. R. Southall wrote in Starburst Magazine, "That internet legend from YouTube, known usually as BabelColour, submitted a much longer essay. It was an excellent piece of writing, and very important for a couple of reasons... it kind of gave the whole project a feeling of legitimacy. Now I could tell people that Stuart Humphryes had made a submission already, and even quote an extract from it as an example".

2014

In November 2014 Humphryes was one of the "big names in the Whovian community" interviewed by the Houston Press for his positive critical opinion of Series 8 of Doctor Who.

2015

In 2015 Humphryes colourised the cover of Mark Iveson's biographical reference book Cursed Horror Stars.

2018

In August 2018 the Edinburgh Evening News ran an interview with Humphryes about his restoration of colour film of 1930s Edinburgh.

2019

In February 2019 the London Evening Standard ran a feature on his colourisation work.

Humphryes stated, "I try to be bold with my colours – most colourisers seem frightened of the medium and make their work pastel and faded. I’m of the opinion that if I’m going to add colour I may as well go the whole hog and make it bold and bright and colourful. That’s what real life should be, after all!"

2020

In May 2020 - to mark the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day - the Royal Mail issued commemorative coin presentation packs which included colourisation work by Humphryes.
