    Ambassadors of death has to be the dvd of this year! As its the first time since broadcast in 1970 that it will be avalable in full colour Dont see a problem with a spearhead reissue as its been 10 years since its dvd release and restoring picture and sound have come leaps and bounds since then plus it will be choc full of new extras. End of this year will have 15 complete and 4 incomplete left. Have 3-4 box sets next year and about 6-7 single releases all the complete stories could be done. So dont worry about zygons or galaxy. should be 2012

    YAY

    I own all doctor who stories on VHS or DVD apart from a few.

    Being Released This Year That I havent Got:

    The Mutants
    Planet of The Spiders (At Last)
    Terror of the Autons ( I hate boxsets with stories i have already got)
    The Sun Makers (Compleating Televised Tom Baker stories)
    Ambassadors of Death (Got black & white VHS)

    By the way if there is a “/” does it mean it is part of a boxset? 😎

    I was hoping that the third revisitations box would include Vegeance on Varos.

    Would be nice if it had some additional features (“Violence in Dr Who” doco?) but at least complete production subtitles!

    Fingers crossed for 2012 perhaps!

    Dont waste your time answering lewis. All he does is ask for dvd release dates. Ive told him repeatedly that day of the daleks isnt out till late 2011 and he still asks. (See day of the daleks page)

    Last year they had no release in april wonder if its same this year. Have heard that may will be a box set as the US isnt getting an extra release to catch up so it will probably be autons in that month. Its too early to tell when the official date for some of the dvds are. Normally its about 3 months before the official release date is revealed

    At last Paradise Towers, a story I have always loved since I first saw in in 1987. Perhaps Character Options can release a Cleaning Robot figure to accompany the DVD release?

    Looks like I will have to wait till 2012 for Dragonfire though still never mind.
