Doctor Who Day of The Doctor DVD
Please note An adventure in space and time is now NOT included as it has been given a separate release.
The Doctors embark on their greatest adventure in this 50th anniversary special. In 2013, something terrible is awakening in London’s National Gallery; in 1562, a murderous plot is afoot in Elizabethan England; and somewhere in space, an ancient battle reaches its devastating conclusion. All of reality is at stake as the Doctor’s own dangerous past comes back to haunt him.
Written by Steven Moffat, Directed by Nick Hurran, Executive produced by Steven Moffat and Faith Penhale, Produced by Marcus Wilson,
Additional content includes:
- The Last Day – exclusive mini episode
- The Night of the Doctor – Day of the Doctor prequel starring Paul McGann
- Doctor Who Explained
- Behind the lens
- Early trailer
- 50 year trailer.
The disc also contains English subtitles for the hard of hearing, audio description and audio navigation.
The main feature contains a 5.1 soundtrack.
Starring Matt Smith, David Tennant, Jenna Coleman with Billie Piper and John Hurt, the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special will be titled The Day of the Doctor, and has been confirmed as feature length, with 75 minutes of adventure.

Doctor, 13
September 21st, 2013 - 6:38pmI’m really annoyed because they’re not selling normal blu-ray, but I’m happy with Adventure that’s with it!

September 20th, 2013 - 4:47pmI’m very pleased about this as I won’t be able to watch An Adventure in Space and Time. In my country we only get to watch BBC 1, and all the other BBC channels can only be looked at by paying an enormous extra amount of money. So to add this to the DVD is very welcome.

September 19th, 2013 - 10:39ambooboo i ordered the day of the doctor before this news will i have to buy the adventure in space and time separate
booboo
September 19th, 2013 - 10:42amno its included so no nee to re order
Have to admit i am surprised, would have thought it would have justified a separate release
I would have preferred a stand alone on to be honest

September 18th, 2013 - 10:04pmThis post is a little confusing….the title references the documentary, Adventure in Time but there is no mention of it in the body. Is this a special edition release or is this the same as what was posted a few days ago with updated information.
I’ve already preordered this and want to know if I need to cancel so I can order the version with Adventure in Time.
booboo
September 18th, 2013 - 10:08pmits included, we have just been told by BBC worldwide so have no don everything yet

September 15th, 2013 - 11:31amthis is kind of copying the three doctors aniversary special, but im sure it will be good anyway
The 11th dalek
September 14th, 2013 - 1:23pmit sounds so cool and the picture looks great
Clayderman
September 11th, 2013 - 7:53pmI’m so wanting to get the Normal DVD and the 3-D BluRay one. Also, who’s still up for getting the 10th Doctor Universal Remote?
ParadigmDalek1325
September 11th, 2013 - 6:03pmSo getting!
dalekwho
September 11th, 2013 - 5:39pmSo there using the first poster for the 50th as the cover. Where its got John Hurt its got Bad wolf in the back ground.
Doom Dalek
September 11th, 2013 - 7:44pmMaybe it has something to do with bad wolf! Also at the end of the Shakespeare Code queen Elizabeth I said the Doctor was her greatest enemy,… She is in this special so answers to her 2, can’t wait till 23rd November 2013
Anonymous
September 12th, 2013 - 3:16pmI don’t think the Liz One problem will be sorted here, the Doctor didn’t know during The Shakespeare Code and if he’s travelling with Rose here then he won’t find out at this point.

September 12th, 2013 - 10:16pmThat was kinda explained in The End of Time Part 1.
callum simmons
November 19th, 2013 - 12:39pmIt has been pretty much confirmed by a clip that the 10th doctor in this is 904 so this is set two years in his timeline before the end of time where he was 906. As he was 903 in series 4 this is clearly set between waters of mars and end of time from his perspective. Billie piper isn’t playing rose by the look of it looks more like her character will be a physical manifestation of bad wolf guiding john hurt’s war doctor as we have seen in trailers him talking with her and the other two doctors don’t appear to be able to see her.
Callum
September 11th, 2013 - 5:22pmI’m going to pre-order the complete series 7 and the day of the doctor on dvd from amazon.co.uk
Rose
September 11th, 2013 - 4:15pmI can’t wait. It’s going to be awesome!
bigfin20
September 11th, 2013 - 8:28amWhen I get some money, I’ll definitely pre order this.
Sebatron
September 11th, 2013 - 1:07amI defiantly want this! I hope they do a 3D version that you can use the 3D glasses with!
Even if they don’t I’m still getting it!
Sebatron
September 11th, 2013 - 1:08amThe glasses that you get at the cinema
11matt
September 11th, 2013 - 6:17pmno i think you’ll need a 3d tv not cinema glasses
jaketorwho
September 11th, 2013 - 9:40pmtheres two types of 3d, i have the cinema style at home, but theres also active 3d which is the electronic glasses that flicker!
Danny Brown
September 12th, 2013 - 7:47pmto watch it in 3D your’ll need a 3D TV.

callum simmons
September 10th, 2013 - 10:01pmFor exclusive slipcovers for each blu ray/dvd version they could have one being the three doctors rested against smith’s Tardis. Then john hurt surrounded by fire and ash in a wasteland for the 3D version. The john hurt picture could also feature on the back of the 2D version
callum simmons
September 10th, 2013 - 9:57pmThis is how I could imagine the cover: John hurt in the middle looking resolute, matt smith on one side running holding Clara’s hand and David tennant on the other holding rose’s hand. The whole place with fire and ash in the air and the galifrey domed city in the background on fire with the Tardis in mid air in the distance on fire. at the top the 50th anniversary doctor who logo with the cast names at the top like with most film posters. then under the characters at the bottom “day of the doctor in gold but burned and
rusted galifrey font.

September 10th, 2013 - 6:38pmI hope they release a special or limited edition of this

September 10th, 2013 - 5:13pmWhen I was lucky to go on the set of the current Tardis in Cardiff, one of the BBC staff told me she was fortunate to see some of the 3D footage as it was being filmed and it looked awesome 🙂
Nicholas
September 10th, 2013 - 4:51pmAny news on a Blu-Ray or a Blu-Ray 3D pre-order?
booboo
September 10th, 2013 - 4:54pmnot yet
Whovian
September 10th, 2013 - 4:54pmCan’t wait!!
Nicholas
September 10th, 2013 - 5:00pmOkay.
I have a feeling this episode is going to look marvellous on Blu-Ray. Just a shame I don’t have a 3D telly, as I’d snap up the inevitable 3D Blu-Ray straight away!
callum simmons
September 10th, 2013 - 9:52pmI hope the blu ray will not only be 3D. That would be a disaster!! I’m hoping for a 2D blu ray and a separate 3D version like they do with most films. Wonder what the cover will be like. I hope they don’t just do a generic who cover like the rest of the releases after 2010. What would be cool is a cover that is the film style poster for it which is rumoured to be appearing soon.
BigBangTwo
November 18th, 2013 - 6:01pmThe Blu-ray has both the 2D version and 3D version on the same disc.
Scott the Raptor
September 10th, 2013 - 4:41pmDay of The Doctor! I’ll probably get it on Amazon so that I’ll get it the day it comes out.
Scott the Raptor
September 10th, 2013 - 4:45pmI’d like the cover to be David and Matt, then behind them are Jenna and Billie, and on top of them are the Zygons and the Daleks. It will probably have the 50th TARDIS logo on it.

September 10th, 2013 - 5:21pmWhat about John Hurt’s “Doctor”?
Scott the Raptor
September 10th, 2013 - 6:10pmWhat about him?
drjakeyoung
September 10th, 2013 - 4:28pmI think they will release this and the Christmas special as vanilla releases then some time in February release a box set with this, the Christmas special, an adventure in space and time and an unearthly child: 50th edition all in a box set with tones of extra’s. It would be 4 disks and include other stuff like mini episodes, Dr who at the proms (2013) and maybe even the 50th anniversary advent held at excel latter this year.
Cyber lords
September 10th, 2013 - 4:25pmMaybe sammi was right.
George The Lovebirds
September 10th, 2013 - 5:04pmIf you say something is being announced every day chances are you will get in right once.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Anonymous
September 10th, 2013 - 5:58pmUnless one of the hands is broken off that is.
The Nose
September 10th, 2013 - 11:32pmWell, if it’s the minute hand, the clock will be right twice a day. If it’s the hour hand; it’ll be right 24 times a day. If only the second hand remains, it’ll be right 1440 times a day. So all positive for the broken clock
Caturanga
September 10th, 2013 - 4:11pmWatch them ship the DVD early again.
