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.

    Do you think or know if they’ll release a special edition or limited edition version of this, like they do with the series DVDs? Limited to the bbc shop or something.

    I am still betting my money on a boxset in February with this, an adventure in space and time and the Christmas special. With lots and lots of extra’s, like an unearthly child – 50th edition, dr who live, the next doctor, the proms, all the programs on this month and loads more!

    mmm would’ve liked more special features, as have seen all things, and I’m sure the exclusive clip will be on youtube. I doubt there’s any news about an adventure in space and time and this being in a box set?

      It says right at the very top ‘Please note An adventure in space and time is now NOT included as it has been given a separate release.’

      Too bad that separate release isn’t coming to America so now we have no way to see it on disc.

    Not very many special features! Quite disappointed actually; couldn’t it even include the two Doctor Who Live episodes?

    I would have liked more special features with the DVD. I really hope they have a decent-lengthed interview with both Tennant and Smith in it.

    Still not happy with this cover at all….
    Is that cover TBC or the real thing?
    if it’s the real thing they sure better release a special edition one or something, like the five doctors SE.

      Not that I am saying it’s bad artwork, just that this DVD is the 50TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL DVD! and it is simply not enough…

    • drjakeyoung

      November 18th, 2013 - 3:53pm

      I am pretty sure they will release this in a boxset with an adventure in space and time and the Christmas special with lots of extra’s. Sort of like the 2009 specials.

      Yeah that is what I hoped too but I would have preferred this single release to be something that makes people double back when walking down the DVD isle in ASDA 😆

    If they only have one main extra on this DVD release it HAS got to be Night of the Doctor. Wasn’t that amazing to see Paul McGann back as the Doctor. Another rumour turned out to be true!!

    This officially has the potential to be an amazing release, but I get the feeling it’ll be bog-standard and all the features kept for a future e box set – but it could have a host of special features – Adventure in Time and Space, Night of the Doctor, Science of Doctor Who and An Unearthly Child…..etc
