Doctor Who Series 8 Episode1 Deep Breath (Blu-ray)
The feature length first episode from the much anticipated Series 8 of Doctor Who, the BBC One show in which Peter Capaldi was revealed as the Twelfth Doctor, a 10 minute behind the scenes feature and more. When the Doctor arrives in Victorian London, he finds a dinosaur rampant in the Thames and a spate of deadly spontaneous combustions.
Who is the new Doctor and will Clara’s friendship survive as they embark on a terrifying mission into the heart of an alien conspiracy? The Doctor has changed. It’s time you knew him.

November 18th, 2014 - 9:08pmShould I buy this for doctor who live the next doctor or should I wait ?

November 18th, 2014 - 9:19pmI bought this and having not seen The next Doctor Live since it aired I found it incredibly melodramatic and quite hard to watch because it was so cringe-y. Half the ‘celebrity fans’ probably don’t know who William Hartnell was. And don’t get me started on Zoe Ball 😆 So… no. (though this is just my opinion 😛 )

September 8th, 2014 - 11:38pmIs this going to be in the cinema’s aspect ratio or the TV 16:9 aspect? A cinema aspect version would make me buy it as the series 8 version will surely be the TV version.

September 4th, 2014 - 9:27pmBREAKING NEWS!!! BBc shop just sent me an email saying due to an unfortunate manufacturing error they have had to hold the release date back a week to the 16th September. No idea what this flaw is but no one will be receiving this til the 16th. Wonder what error it could be. I suppose it could be the wholly unrelated cover or something else.

August 24th, 2014 - 1:09pmI thought it would be rated a 12 since Clara says “Bloody terrified” and the violence etc.

August 24th, 2014 - 8:17amThis was an incredible feature length episode. It felt tonally and visually like a movie plus the camera shots used you don’t find often on Television. Capaldi was amazing in the very complex role of the doctor and really wowed me. I don’t usually buy standalones but it was so good in the cinema it would be an insult to Deep breath not to watch it next on Blu Ray its perfectly suited to that and the cinema.

August 24th, 2014 - 3:03amPG? I was expecting it to be a 12 due to the dark scenes (Clara holding her breath and the villain’s fate) and fan service (you know what I’m talking about).

August 7th, 2014 - 5:51pmIf this sells good numbers, more will come.
This is not a product for fans but for casual buyers in supermarket.
Shane
August 7th, 2014 - 9:23pmI would say it’s the opposite. This is for fans who are avid collectors who will buy this even thoguh the episode will be on the complete set.
Adam
August 18th, 2014 - 1:28amI am getting this and the complete box set. doesn’t really bother me that I will have them both looking forward to having them both really.
Some bloke
August 7th, 2014 - 1:16pmIf they are releasing thins individually, then I hope they continue to release this series individually. If they don’t, if they just release this, then the complete series 8, I will be annoyed!! I need continuity on my shelves!!!!!

Shane
August 7th, 2014 - 5:05pmI guarantee this is the only individual release because it’s feature length. The rest will only be on the complete set.
doctor who crazy ross
August 10th, 2014 - 12:33amIf it was released individually it would cost over £100 so I don’t see the point of each episode being released on its own.
