Vengeance on Varos Special Edition DVD
Doctor Who – Vengeance on Varos
With the TARDIS stranded due to a chronic shortage vital mineral Zyton-7, the Doctor is able to make an emergency landing on the planet Varos which is rich in the substance. There he encounters a race of people forced to work hard in the mines and whose only entertainment comes from watching mindless violence on television and voting on whether or not contestants should be killed.
The Doctor discovers that the people of Varos are being exploited by the slug-like alien Sil who represents an unscrupulous company who wish to have the Zyton-7 themselves. However, before the Doctor can do anything he must become a contestant in the Punishment Dome…

McGann is The Doctor
August 4th, 2012 - 4:06pmSo getting this for my birthday. Anyone else ?
gordon
August 5th, 2012 - 1:11amPlanet of giants is my birthdy who dvd
McGann is The Doctor
August 5th, 2012 - 2:52pmHave fun with an old black and white story. 😆
Wouldn’t you rather get a fun Doctor Who story ? Something from the 70s or 80s ? ❓
gordon
August 5th, 2012 - 11:17pmNothing wrong with 60’s b and w who. I find a lot of 60’s who just as enjoyable nd fun as the 70’s and 80’s
McGann is The Doctor
August 10th, 2012 - 11:21pmReally ?
Well good for you.
I just get afew William Hartnell stories on VHS when my Xbox is unavailable. (you know it got taken off me afew times, and it had to be sent away for repairs once).
Anyway, William Hartnell’s first three stories are great I have seen them and hope to see the War Machines and the Time Meddler. Shame Marco Polo is lost, I would have liked to have seen what made that massive footprint ! ❗
McGann is The Doctor.
June 30th, 2012 - 4:07pmThis DVD is AMAZING.
Shame Colin Baker for whatever reason, hasn’t had any further contribution to the DVD.
I always find it interesting to hear what he has to say. Anyway, who else thought this story could have done with a little CGI laser-blaster effects on the laser-blaster guns ? 😉
McGann is The Doctor.
June 30th, 2012 - 4:08pmThey’re not too bad, but a little CGI lasers instead, probably would have looke better.
Why aren’t 2Entertain doing the CGI stuff anymore ?
Gordon
July 2nd, 2012 - 7:52amNo the effects are fine the way they are. I dont know if colin has been interviewed for the dvd but his original commentary is on the new dvd so it wouldnt be a total loss. Main reasons why they havent is cost (invasion of the dinosaurs) or titles not needing cgi effects. Plus they have said that day of the daleks was the last planned cgi story. Terror of the zygons is getting something special planned but its been specificly stated ITS NOT CGI
McGann is the Doctor
July 17th, 2012 - 3:38pmOkay.
Yeah, that’s alright.
Terrible a story as it is, I must say that is would be a waste to have CGI effects on that mess of a story, Resurrection of the Daleks. I’m glad they did Day instead. 🙂

June 23rd, 2012 - 11:52amI think it is more likely to be a nick courtney tribute on inferno special edition.

June 21st, 2012 - 3:02pmI HOPE THEY PUT A FITTING TRIBUTE TO CAROLINE JOHN ON THE AMBASSADORS OF DEATH DVD,SHE,LL BE SADLY MISSED.
KORSAIR
June 21st, 2012 - 3:14pmHas she died? It’s the first I’ve heard of it. I got to meet her a couple of years ago at a convention.
booboo
June 21st, 2012 - 3:17pmyes, on the 5th on June but only announced today
Blink
June 21st, 2012 - 3:36pmI think its very sad that she was only on-screen for four stories. 🙁
gordon
June 21st, 2012 - 10:27pmYeah Its very sad news.As for a tribute on ambassadors sadly not. Its too late for a tribute to appear on that release as everything has been completed. However inferno is getting rereleased next year lets hope for something on that
Anonymous
June 21st, 2012 - 10:46pmSHE DESERVES IT.SHE WAS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE PERTWEE ERA. I,M GOING TO HAVE A LITTLE TRIBUTE OF MY OWN AND SETTLE TO THE 3 WHO DVDS FROM HER TIME, AND THE FIVE DOCTORS. R.I.P. CAROLINE, WE ALL MISS YOU.
gordon
June 23rd, 2012 - 8:10amAll depends on how much of a budget they still have left over from the new restoration of inferno and new extras as they will have been alocated only a certain ammount. Another thing appart from terrance Dicks Derek Shirwan and at a push John Levine there really isnt much regulars they can interview for a tribute on her time on the show. I supose they can have archive footage but most of that will be from other releases.

June 23rd, 2012 - 10:21amWE,LL SOON SEE WHEN BBC WORLDWIDE ANNOUNCE THE RELEASES.
Alex
June 20th, 2012 - 8:16pmLooking forward to this release!
Anyways I’ve got £35 for Classic Who DVDs, and I’ve decided I’ll get Revisitations 1 because Caves and Talons are so highly rated.
This means, that because the other single releases are about £7 each, I can get two of them. I want to get the best of Classic Who I haven’t got, which is alot! I have loads of ‘duds’. The trouble is I don’t want to buy stories that will be re-released in Special Editions in the next few years.
Help me Whovians!
Alex
June 20th, 2012 - 9:09pmThinking of getting The Deadly Assassin and Day of the Daleks? Earthshock and City of Death were possible but because they might be re-released I’m not sure…
gordon
June 20th, 2012 - 9:46pmDeadly assasin and day of the daleks. Especially day as its got a special edition on disc 2 with new dalek voices and cgi. I doubt if earthshock or city of death will get rereleased. both look good restoration wise and both have good set of extras
Alex
June 20th, 2012 - 10:43pmThanks! Is Caves of Androzani so good? I’ve never seen it but the legacy of it is so massive!
gordon
June 20th, 2012 - 11:31pmOh yes. Its a really gripping story.Great performances all round and one of the most sympathetic villians due to his circumstances. Also the cliffhangers of episodes 1 and 3 being some of the best in the show’s almost 50 year history.
prof horner
June 17th, 2012 - 12:03pmI would love the moonbase missing episodes to be amimated.

June 17th, 2012 - 11:21pmBrian Hodgson of the bbc radophonic workshop has just recently claimed he has done a commentary for moonbase so it looks like that be getting a reissue of some sort.
Anonymous
June 18th, 2012 - 12:44pmFROM WHAT I,VE READ, FOR THE POSSIBLE REISSUE OF LOST IN TIME,WHICH GIVEN THEIR REISSUING OTHER OLD TITLES,IT MIGHT NOT BE A BAD IDEA.THEY COULD ANIMATE THE MOONBASE 1 AND 3,AND PUT BOTH EPISODES OF THE UNDERWATER MENACE TOGETHER,AS WELL AS GALAXY 4. THE TENTH PLANET AND THE ICE WARRIORS SHOULD REMAIN STAND ALONE RELEASES
gordon
June 18th, 2012 - 12:48pm@ Anonymos Steve roberts has said on the galifrey base forum there are no plans for a second Lost in time box set and are no plans to update the original lost in time boxset either.
Blink
June 16th, 2012 - 3:12pmCan someone please tell how the will ‘do’the Legacy box set.
gordon
June 17th, 2012 - 12:33amI take it you mean more info on the legacy box. There really isnt much info.Legacy box will contain the unfinished shada and the documentary.There maybe other items in the boxset but nothing has been announced. How the gaps in shada will be filled is currently unknown but it has been hinted its the naration that tom baker recorded for the vhs in 1992. It defenitly wont be the ian levine animated shada project that he worked on as that was turned down.
gordon
June 17th, 2012 - 12:37amShada will come with at least 2 documentarys 1. a making of called taken out of time
2.then and now a look at locations today.
The exact release date has not been comfirmed but was announced by classic dw twitter as a likely release for 2012. Going by the current schedule dont expect a release till october at the earliest
gordon
June 17th, 2012 - 1:01amIt will contain the unfinished Shada and the documentary more than 30 years in the tardis that was supposed to say
Anonymous
June 17th, 2012 - 11:18amI WONDER IF THEY INCLUDE THE ORIGINAL SHADA SCRIPT ON SPECIAL FEATURES. I,M GLAD I GOT THE VHS VERSION WITH THE BLUE BOOK.
Anonymous
June 17th, 2012 - 11:31amTHERES RUMOURS THEY MAY STILL REISSUS THE’ LOST IN TIME’ ON DVD. IF THEY DO I HOPE THEY PUT THOSE MISSING EPISODES ON…I;E:THE UNDERWATER MENACE 2 AND 3 IN ORDER. FANS WOULD HATE TO PAY OUT AGAIN, SO MAYBE FOR THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY THEY COULD INCLUDE ALL NEW COMMENTARIES ON THOSE MISSING EPISODES AND POSSIBLY ANIMATE SAY THE MOONBASE MISSING EPISODES AS A NEW INCLUSION.
gordon
June 17th, 2012 - 11:33amMost likely as a pdf file acsessed by putting the disc in the computer. If its true that they are putting the tom baker linking naration on the dvd that has been hinted by steve roberts then this is 1 release that just doesnt intrest me. Not a fan of it im affraid.

June 18th, 2012 - 12:49pmIF THATS THE CASE I STAND CORRECTED. BIT OF A MISSED OPPORTUNITY THOUGH,GIVEN THERE REISSUING OTHER OLD TITLES FOR THE FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY.THEY COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING SPECIAL.(SEE COMMENTS I MADE ABOVE)
gordon
June 18th, 2012 - 1:27pmIt rules out a lost in time itself getting reissued but i dont think it rules out seperate rereleases of the crusade and moonbase with brian hodgson saying he had done a commentary for moonbase the decision to reissue moonbase might already have been made

June 14th, 2012 - 6:02pmi have never seen Vengance On Varos( although I have got a lot of classic episodes) but in mindwarp(the trial of a time lord) when the doctor reford to her being a bird woman I thought she would have a beak. she just looks hairy not bird like. note bird people need beaks soory about spelling
McGann is The Doctor.
June 15th, 2012 - 4:59pmInteresting.
I LOVE this story, although when I first saw it, I did not quite understand the moral of the story, and did not like it as much at the time. Having rewatched it, Vengeance is now one of my all time favourite stories.
I think if she had a bird beak in the story it would look silly to be honest. Have you seen it yet ?
Anonymous
June 15th, 2012 - 10:53pmI LOVE DOCTOR WHO BIRDS BUT A BEAK WOULD HAVE BEEN A STROKE TOO FAR.

June 13th, 2012 - 9:06pmThis is the only Colin Baker story left that I need!!!!! 🙂
McGann is The Doctor.
June 15th, 2012 - 5:01pmOh dear, did you buy Timelash.
It’s such a bad story I never got it and I’ve never seen the whole episode, it’s furrowly aweful !!
It was badly made (very little money, then again I’m glad they spent little on it because then there was more money for the GOOD stories of the season).
And badly written because the Doctor and Peri are bickering so much, when they had gotten past that stage in the relationship, so why are they bickering like this all of a sudden ?! ❗

the TARDIS
July 8th, 2012 - 5:11pmSome people like me are ‘completists’ who like to have complete collections. And, frankly, I don’t think Timelash is that bad. Not a brilliant story but it does have some interesting ideas and the Borad is a brilliant mask. It’s just a shame that it’s wedged in between The Two Doctors and Revelation of the Daleks. And that it’s a very unfortunate anagram of something rude but accurate.

June 2nd, 2012 - 3:44pmthey should do the underwater mence anmation dvd cos its been found and its four episodes long
gordon
June 3rd, 2012 - 11:08pmI think they will wait till they find out what the sales figures for reign of terror is first before they decide whether or not to animate other stories outwith 10th planet and ice warriors. Even if reign is a big seller its not a garantee of more animated stories.It has to both sell well and make a profit. If it doesnt make a profit i cant see the folk with the checkbooks agreeing to any more animation
Anonymous
June 4th, 2012 - 11:15amI AGREE WITH THE ANIMATION FOR THE UNDERWATER MENACE OR PERHAPS THEY COULD HAVE REISSUED THE LOST IN TIME DVD AND PUT BOTH EPISODES OF THAT STORY AND GALAXY 4 ON THERE INSTEAD OF PUTTING THESE EPISODES ALONGSIDE THE ICE WARRIORS AND THE TENTH PLANET.
gordon
June 5th, 2012 - 8:45amI think a lost in time reissue is a bad idea. Some Fans will get annoyed to get the 2 episodes they have to rebuy a boxset that they already own.It would be a similar situation as when terror of the autons got first announced in a box with a reissued spearhead.The only way fans would be happy if lit was reissued with animated crusade,underwater menace and moonbase with their own seperate cases which i cant see happening as its not financially viable to animate 6 episodes in a box set at this time.That is why i think lit reissue wont happen
gordon
June 5th, 2012 - 9:19amCurrently going by the current financial climate at most we can expect for animated releases is 2 episodes.Providing reign of terror is a sucsess (dan hall has said future animations would depend on how well reign does, if it makes a profit and how well the reception is for the style of animation ) We could potentiallyexpect:
The Crusade
Tenth planet*
The Underwater menace*
Moonbase*
The Ice warriors*
*= Has footage that is unreleased on dvd and is more likely to get animated and in the case of 10th planet and warriors already been hinted
gordon
June 5th, 2012 - 9:30amDidnt include mission the unknown as i see it as part of masterplan. Plus trying to get people to part with 13 quid for 1 ep (they would have to sell it at that price to make money) might be a hardsell (personally id buy it depending on extras but to a lot of folk 13 quid for 1 ep is just too expensive and not financially worth it). Maybe in 5-10 years time animation cost will have come down to animate 3 episode stories so we might get toymaker/galaxy 4 but beyond that i doubt we will get anything that has 4 eps upwards in this lifetime atleast
Anonymous
June 5th, 2012 - 11:02amI GET WHAT YOUR SAYING REGARDING THE LOST IN TIME REISSUE, I PERSONALLY THINK BY JUST BY PUTTING THOSE TWO ‘UNDERWATER’ EPISODES TOGETHER WOULD BE LESS HASSLE AND BETTER TO WATCH TOGETHER RATHER THAN HAVING TO INSERT 2 DVDS,JUST SAVING TIME REALLY. LIKE YOU SAY IT WOULDNT BE DONE UNLESS THEY ANIMATED EPS 1 AND 4.ITS JUST EASIER TO LISTEN THE LOST COLLECTIONS ON CD.
McGann is The Doctor.
June 1st, 2012 - 11:53pm(Gasp !) Awesome, the cover is GREAT ! So cool ! I’m getting this, and I have been looking forward to it and am so glad the cover is GREAT ! 😀
The Silence
May 31st, 2012 - 11:50amThey’re re-releasing ‘Inferno’ again as a Special Edition in 2013.
Gordon
May 31st, 2012 - 1:02pmAnd going by a tweet from katy manning a claws of axos special edition
Gordon
May 31st, 2012 - 1:14pmSteve Roberts of the restoration team has also said the following Could be possible candidates for Special editions:
Aztecs(Picture quality looks poor compared to other black and white stories of that era and its the first B and w story vidfired. Could look muck better )
Ark in space (Didnt get a proper full colour grade,Restoration Looks poor in comparison to other 4th doctor stories No making of)
matparks08
May 31st, 2012 - 8:51pmI think we could see lots of special editions rather in 2013 – not just because of it being the anniversary year but because of wjat’s left to release on dvd – apart from Terror of Zygons what full complete storys are left (that don’t need work) – make it a special year and bring out one ‘special edition’ for each doctor. Now there’s a thread….!
Anonymous
May 31st, 2012 - 9:22pmAll the stories need work, that’s just a fact of it being an old show.
But after these they still have The Ambassadors of Death (which appears to be finished now), The Mind of Evil (which cannot be restored fully) and Terror of the Zygons.
Gordon
May 31st, 2012 - 10:37pmMind of evil is coming out restored fully. Episodes 2 to 6 have been recoloured using colour recovery(still a lot of post processing work to do) plus babelcolour is colourising ep1 with a bit of help with motion estimation. Esentially babelcolour coloursises every fifth frame instead of every single one and motion estimation does the rest.He has about 7000 frames to colourise so we might have to wait till later than 2013
Gordon
June 1st, 2012 - 9:15amAs for Matparks08 suggestion of lots of Special editions. I can see maybe 5 or 6 revisits to give us a full year of releases possibly more if animation on 10th planet/ice warriors (if they get animated) is late or mind of evil restoration isnt on time.
Gordon
June 1st, 2012 - 9:20amIm hopefull for 2013
10th planet (with galaxy 4 ep 3)
Ice warriors
Mind of evil
Terror of the zygons
Special Editions
The Aztecs (Picture quality improvemnt)
Inferno (PQI)
Claws of Axos (PQI)
Ark in space (PQI extras)
The Visitation (extras)
2 doctors (extras)
Silver nemises (extended, only released 2010 so prob wont happen)
Made sure all doctors are covered
Would have put underwater menace ep 2 with ice warriors but its currently rumoured to get animated and if it is so i doubt it will get released 2013 due to length of time animation takes.
SPACE 1999
June 2nd, 2012 - 3:39pmthey could be re releaseing lost in time to put in galexy 4 : air lock and the underwater mencece episode 3 in 2012 or 2013 for the 50th year
BB
June 2nd, 2012 - 4:17pmI hope they put animation to 10th planet. I read they book and the story’s epic! 😆
McGann is The Doctor.
June 9th, 2012 - 5:05pmReally ? They’re going to rerelease Inferno ?! But it already has two discs and the 2Entertain logo !
They should re-release “Two Doctors” and give it a better cover, a big orange picture of a Sontaran isn’t right for the story because the Sontarans aren’t really the main bad guys in it.
It should have a cover that puts more emphasis on the Doctors, and have Peri and Jamie.
gordon
June 11th, 2012 - 7:39pmJust because its got 2 discs and has the 2 e logo doesnt rule it out of a rerelease.The fact is the original version of inferno is the original restoration though good at the time is pretty poor compared to more recent releases. Since the 2006 release the restoration for the RSC technique has come leeps and bounds and inferno will look much better.
gordon
June 11th, 2012 - 7:41pmAppart from a better dvd cover 2 docs wont be improved restoration wise and there isnt much more extras that could be added appart from a making of. And a better cover and making of would probably not be enough to warrent a SE
McGann is The Doctor.
June 15th, 2012 - 5:04pmSurely Inferno does not require any re-release it already has adequate special features, and the DVD WAS made by the 2Entertain company because it has their logo.
The Vistitation, Two Doctors, perhaps Earthshock and also the Ark In Space are due for a rerelease. 😛 Revisitations 5 perhaps ?
gordon
June 15th, 2012 - 10:51pmYes it does require a rerelease. The picture quality could be vastly improved due to technical advances in the restoration process since the original dvd release. Picture quality of inferno is poor compared with what they can acheive now. The picture quality of the new version will be much better

1/ My Mum said that I can only get two paradigm daleks, so I have decided to get the supreme but which else should i get?
eternal, scientist, drone or strategist?
2/ should i ask if i can get the eleventh doctor’s tardis playset or flight control tardis or both?
Please Reply ASAP.
GallifreyRules
May 30th, 2012 - 9:07pmGet drone.
Get both if you can but if you can only get one then get the flight control TARDIS.

May 30th, 2012 - 10:36pmthink forbidden planet have cheapest daleks at mo. u might want to wait til september for release of talking 5″ daleks (im assuming they will launch with start of series 7’s dalek opener).
full size tardis very disapointing as not as detailed as 10th docs one. but junk yard one is better.

Does anyone have any idea what the next release will be after this? 🙂
Erol
May 30th, 2012 - 11:35pmThe Reign of Terror or The Ambassadors of Death I believe, as special features have been cleared for Ambassadors on BBFC website and Reign of Terror is a 2012 release
Gordon
May 31st, 2012 - 9:41amIts ambassadors next (going by the bbfc extras being passed). Its going to either be The legacy box (shada/more than thirty years in the tardis) or reign of terror after ambassadors. Both were announced by classicdw as likely 2012 releases. Unless they have november releases which they havent for about 5 years i doubt they will have enough time to release ambassadors, legacy and reign and expect 1 of them to drop to next year (probably legacy).

May 30th, 2012 - 5:20pmWhy Have They Decided To Release “Vengance On Varos” Again On Dvd But In Special Edition
matparks08
May 30th, 2012 - 5:26pmIf you look at all the original Dr Who dvd releases the very first ones have the most dreadful covers, so for collectors, it’s nice to have a collection that actually looks good! (hence re-released Remembrance of Daleks, 5 Doctors, Robots of Death, etc) – also, after (what, 10 years?) there’s possibly more special features. It also means we get a Colin Baker release (1st one for a few years now)…and if none of that pleases you as an answer it’s because Vengeance is 80s Who at its brutal best and it deserves it!
Gordon
May 30th, 2012 - 9:29pmReasons why they have done a special edition.
1.The original dvd is 10 years old
2.The original cover is awful
3.The pic of colin in the spineof the original is wrong compared to other releases
4.The original didnt have a making of
5. They have added almost 3 hours of new extra features
6.There was an error of the production notes in the original release
7. Fans requested it after it was originally dropped from the rev 2 box set.
8. 4 new audio versions
