BBC Shop The Web of Fear DVD / T-Shirt Exclusive
BBC Shop The Web of Fear DVD / T-Shirt Exclusive
Available to order exclusively from www.bbcshop.com
Unseen in the UK for 45 years – marvellously restored and remastered and brought back to life for you to own on DVD.
The TARDIS narrowly avoids becoming engulfed in a cobwebby substance in space. It arrives in the London Underground railway system, the tunnels of which are being overrun by the web and by the Great Intelligence’s robot Yeti.
The Intelligence’s goal is to drain the Doctor’s mind; can the Doctor sabotage the device before the Intelligence’s plan comes to fruition? To celebrate the discovery and release of Doctor Who: Web of Fear, BBC Shop and Dark Bunny Tees have been lovingly working together to bring you a strictly Limited, Exclusively designed T-shirt.
Whisked away to Africa**, location of the discovered tapes designer Alex Chenery has been busying himself on the ultimate design and tribute to the six-part tale unseen on these shores for 45 years. With finishing touches being placed on the designs right now, (we’ve waited this long, we didn’t want to rush!) keep your eyes peeled!
All designs will be screen-printed on a Ring-Spun, Soft Style, Euro cut t-shirt.
**The office we nicknamed downstairs.

September 27th, 2014 - 4:55pmi enjoyed the story on dvd as it was new material. However i thought the artwork was a bit naff i thought the bbc shop artwork for outer slipcase was much better-would have prefered that as cover instead! Also very disapointed with the telesnap reconstuction would have prefered animation!!!

February 25th, 2014 - 1:11pmI got this on Saturday and watched it straight away. I give the episode 4 stars out of 5 because I thought the story, the acting and the monsters were superb. The only that let me down was the ending. The ending was terrible.
The reconstruction of episode 3 was very good and the special feature was a trailer for The Enemy Of The World – ‘Available Now’ Trailer

There’s only one way to find out…

February 10th, 2014 - 1:06pmLike others, really looking forward to the release of Web of Fear in 2 weeks and whilst I’m disappointed at no extras – we have the episodes back, I know – the question needs to be begged, given that a commentary of episode one has been done and was on the Lost in Time DVD, why couldn’t it have been added for this release? I suppose the BBC will re-release in a few years knowing we’ll buy it again.

February 23rd, 2014 - 9:22amIn a few years time dvds in general might not be profitable so there is no guarantee

February 7th, 2014 - 8:01amLast night I pre ordered the Web of Fear, can’t wait to watch it!!!
Also my copy of the Moonbase arrived, and I was blown away by how good the animation was!

January 26th, 2014 - 8:51pmI ordered this from BBC and I used the voucher code; it’s cheaper than the standered edition. 😀
ONLY ONE TO GO!!!!!!! 😀

December 19th, 2013 - 9:53pmI think this DVD will include a animation or at least a recon because if you take a look at the normal DVD cover you will see 2 disc set
on the second disc may be episode 3 or at least more special features unlike “THE ENEMY OF THE WORLD”
No More
January 26th, 2014 - 8:58pmI don’t care what people say about The Enemy of the World, I enjoyed it. I’d give it an 8/10. I like how it joins on The Web of Fear. Even though I’ve got the Lost In Time box set, and that it contains episode 1 of The Web of Fear, I haven’t watched it yet (I got Lost In Time for Christmas) because I feel that when I do get The Web of Fear when it , I’ll enjoy it even more. Now, the special features situation, I don’t care about them, as long as it contains a coming soon trailer OR a spoof (like Blue Peter on The Mind Robber DVD) then I’m happ

November 17th, 2013 - 10:10pmWHO WANTS AN ANIMATION OF EPISODE 3?
Ollie
November 19th, 2013 - 3:27pmYeah but I doubt we’ll get one. No special features at all on TEOTW DVD either which I’m really annoyed about. Got it on iTunes already so why should I pay £14 for a DVD cover, insert and case? I reckon they’ll be special editions of these (possibly as a boxset) in a couple of years time. I’ll either wait till then or when they come down in price on Amazon.
skaroman
November 23rd, 2013 - 8:12amDon’t you want to watch it on a nice big tv, sitting on your comfy sofa, proud to have a limited edition dvd?
Ollie
November 23rd, 2013 - 9:32amJust HDMI my laptop up to my 37″ tv. Still really good quality. You can’t tell me you’re not disappointed to have special features on it? I know I’ll have to buy it again in six months time as a special edition. A box set of both would be nice as they’re back to back stories.
skaroman
November 23rd, 2013 - 6:15pmBut what do you value more? The episodes or the special features?
Lest I remind you, this is the greatest DW haulage since 1992, I’ve just watched the enemy of the world and thought it was brilliant! the only special feature was a coming soon trailer for the web of fear, but I still enjoyed it.
Remember, quality is a lot more important than quantity mr Ollie sir. 🙂 sleep on it ollie.
Ollie
November 28th, 2013 - 4:30pmI’m aware of the significance of the find… That doesn’t mean I’m going to be duped into paying more for something I already have. Once a special edition comes out or it decreases in price on Amazon, then I’ll get it on DVD. You want an animation of episode 3 of ‘Web’ so you too must value the special features that 2Entertain offer. They are exceptional and one of the main reasons the DVD range has been as popular as it has been. A vanilla release of ‘Enemy’ is just an excuse to get more money out of fans.

December 2nd, 2013 - 11:14pmI bought the itunes version because I couldn’t wait to see it. I then got the DVD, not just to have it on the shelf/watch on TV but also so I could watch the VidFire restored version which wasn’t on itunes.

November 6th, 2013 - 1:17pmHey, is this just a slipcase? I prefer the original edition, very atmospheric and striking. Thenemy of the world l.e looks good though.
The Other Scarman
October 19th, 2013 - 9:49amI contacted the BBC Shop and they said the iTunes reconstruction will be on the DVD
Some bloke
October 29th, 2013 - 5:45pmperhaps they’re not allowed to give out information regarding an animated episode. Perhaps they don’t even know and are just guessing… To be honest, I don’t mind 🙂

October 13th, 2013 - 10:47pmI may buy but see the t-shirt and if i like it
I will buy it if not I buy the DVD alone

October 13th, 2013 - 3:51pmreally looking forward to seeing the t-shirts. Just browsed through the other Dr Who Dark Bunny tees and ended up ordering the Kandyman one!!

October 12th, 2013 - 9:15pmI wish that was the real cover it looks amazing !
Nicholas
October 12th, 2013 - 11:57amThis one is out of stock on BBC Shop. Has it been up for pre-order or has it only shown it to be out of stock? Would hate to only get Enemy of The World slipcase and not this as well.
booboo
October 12th, 2013 - 12:02pmsaw that, a bit odd
BBC shop are pretty good though, they must know the quantity available, i’m sure it would say sold out (which would be remarkable)
the DVD’s seem to be selling extremely well from what i can see
Grand Marshall Luke
October 16th, 2013 - 7:56pmIt was up for stock. Orginally I had special slipcase Enemy preordered and assumed that was the only one they were doing. I had Web prerordered via Amazon. I checked back like 2 days later though and found the BBC shop had special slipcase for Web as well and yes it was in stock as I bought one. Seems you are just too late I’m afraid!
Anonymous
October 12th, 2013 - 8:17amSo is that just a slipcase cover or will it be the DVD cover also?
The TARDIS
October 12th, 2013 - 7:55amI hope the Moonbase and the Underwater Menace get the same slip cases! It would be nice to collect together all of these special 50th anniversary “missing episodes” DVDs together. Just a shame about the Tenth Planet and the Ice Warriors.
WouldYouLikeAJellyBaby
October 11th, 2013 - 11:16pmWOW!!! Cover looks Great!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on this, comes off Pre Order on BBC Shop 2 days after my Birthday so will make an absolutely FANTASTIC BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!!
Cpl Hicks
October 11th, 2013 - 7:18pmWhat I find a little baffling is that they have apparently just found these episodes, yet artwork and release dates are already out, whilst no sign of pre-order for Moonbase and Underwater menace which I thought had been known about for some time!
Mr Clever
October 11th, 2013 - 9:32pmNo the news has been around all week, the BBC obviously found it and made the artworks before it was announced, and then wanted to get the DVD out as soon as possible
Some bloke
October 29th, 2013 - 5:51pmNope mr. clever, by the sounds of it work on Enemy and Web began months ago, sometime before june. The news of Underwater menace’s release only came out in september and even though rumours of the moonbase dvd came out in march, they still needed time to animate the missing episodes, so it seems more likely that they would announce dates and reveal artwork for these two before moonbase and underwater 🙂
The TARDIS
October 11th, 2013 - 6:31pmWill this still have the blue cover inside as well as the slipcase?
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 6:33pmthat’s what I wanna know
Doctor Who Crazy Ross
October 11th, 2013 - 7:25pmIt says on the BBC shop slipcase so I should think that it has the original artwork (a bit like the Daemons DVD)
matparks08
October 11th, 2013 - 5:12pmbooboo – just want to say thanks for all your hard work over the last 24 hours – it’s been an amazing day, not just with the announcement at 00.01 but the listings for the dvds, dw magazine, et al – you’ve really kept us all informed and bang up to date – I’m sure I speak for us all when I say thanks again!..and so it’s relevant, really looking forward to seeing the t-shirts!!
booboo
October 11th, 2013 - 5:18pmits been a pleasure
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 4:47pmIs this slipcase on both the enemy of the world and web of fear different to the cover in the actual case?
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 4:56pmalso I pre-ordered web of fear before the slipcase art was revealed. Will that make a difference?
booboo
October 11th, 2013 - 4:57pmi would cancel and re order
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 4:59pmok thanks
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 5:00pmdone it!
Henreeee
October 11th, 2013 - 5:00pmreally? But the product reference hasn’t changed? I thought it was the same but updated?
booboo
October 11th, 2013 - 5:04pmyes i can see its overridden the old listing now so you should be OK, wont do any harm though
Some bloke
October 11th, 2013 - 5:02pmhey booboo, I’ve been designing some covers for a collectors set, bu I don’t know whether to continue until we know if that was all the missing episode finds or if there are more. Here’s what I’ve done so far – http://dwboy16.deviantart.com/art/The-First-20-Chronicle-Covers-405968346
Henreeee
October 11th, 2013 - 4:33pmoh cool. They’re including both covers on the release! Personally prefer the blue but nice to have both
Doctor Who Crazy Ross
October 11th, 2013 - 4:32pmI need both of these, do you think that the gold with be a slipcase (like for the Daemons)? Cos if it is then I’ll get them!
booboo
