BBC Studios announces Season 10 as the next installment in the DOCTOR WHO: THE COLLECTION Blu-ray range
BBC Studios continues to offer Doctor Who fans the opportunity to build their own home archive on Blu-ray. The first jam-packed release for Jon Pertwee’s Third Doctor, Doctor Who – The Collection: Season 10, debuts on Monday 8th July, the very day after Pertwee himself would have turned 100.
In 1973, Doctor Who celebrated its tenth anniversary with a very special story reuniting the first two Doctors – William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton – with Jon Pertwee’s then-current Doctor. The Three Doctors kicks off an explosive, colourful series of adventures across all of time and space as the Doctor and Jo Grant (Katy Manning) encounter the rogue Time Lord Omega, the terrifying Drashigs, the noble Draconians, fearsome Ogrons, deadly Daleks and slithering giant maggots. Season 10 also includes the final appearance of Roger Delgado as the Doctor’s arch nemesis The Master, plus adventures alongside Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart (Nicholas Courtney) and UNIT.
Starring alongside Jon Pertwee are Katy Manning, Nicholas Courtney, Roger Delgado, Richard Franklin and John Levene.
With all episodes newly remastered from the best available sources, this Blu-ray box set also contains extensive and exclusive special features which include:
- A brand new feature-length documentary examining the Third Doctor’s Era, with archival contributions from Jon Pertwee, Barry Letts and Terrance Dicks plus all-new interviews with Katy Manning, Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, presented by Matthew Sweet.
- Updated special effects and surround sound mix for Planet of the Daleks.
- Five new instalments of Behind the Sofa, featuring Katy Manning, Richard Franklin (Captain Yates) and John Levene (Sergeant Benton), along with 21st century Doctor Who panel Phil Collinson (Producer/Executive Producer), Pete McTighe (Writer) and Joy Wilkinson (Writer).
- Looking for Lennie, a documentary investigating the life of director Lennie Mayne.
- Keeping up with the Jones’, which sees Katy Manning with Stewart Bevan (Cliff Jones) pay a return visit to the Welsh locations from The Green Death.
- Plus: a repeat omnibus of The Green Death unseen since Christmas 1973, rare Panopticon convention footage, Blu-ray trailer, HD photo galleries plus scripts, production files and rare documentation provided as PDFs.
- The six-disc box set also includes hours of extensive special features previously released on DVD including two episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures that saw Katy Manning’s Jo Jones meet the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith).
A specially shot announcement trailer – and sequel to classic adventure The Green Death – has debuted on the Doctor Who YouTube channel; written by new series contributor Pete McTighe (Kerblam!) and starring original Doctor Who companion, Katy Manning.
DOCTOR WHO: THE COLLECTION – SEASON 10 includes the following stories from 1972/73:
- The Three Doctors
- Carnival of Monsters
- Frontier in Space
- Planet of the Daleks
- The Green Death
RRP: £56.16 and available from www.zoom.co.uk , www.amazon.co.uk and www.zavvi.com

April 16th, 2019 - 6:41pmTo enjoy them on b&w doesnt mean they couldnt be turned into colour someday, or that me or others that would like to see it released officially in color as well have to “just enjoy them in B&W” with all respect mr anonymous, your opinion it’s respectable but “no, just no” to you sir, as not everyone agrees that just black and white it’s great to enjoy, and equally cinema born itself from just adding strokes of color to showcase emotions…The cabinet of dr. caligari anyone? besides here’s a list with more than 600 films that have been colorized so the argument it’s ambiguous as the taste of the watcher, on economical,capitalist or whatever scale you wanna call it, would assure a re-release of the basic b&w blu ray stories that will be the starting material for a colorized release..
Besides the interior of the tardis would look very great, as well as the chase and the web planet psychedelic scenery (again, quoting namely clayton hickman’s colorised pictures and kieran highman’s video with stuart humphryes collaboration for an idea of what it could be someday —> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMJEzf-ehlI <— the video makes for a full regular episode resuming the best from unearthly child to war games in color even the regeneration from tenth planet and the final shot from troughton in the war games) and that's a "fan" made thing mate…
Again with the respect of your taste, im open to enjoy both as surely the whovians that have followed claytons, kieran and stuart would do as well if someday a couple of stories could get their deserved color release…the production department making the dream of some come true doesn't excuse that some want them b&w like you and will get them and some would enjoy a colored version as well for an almost 60 year old show cause maybe some lil kids wouldnt find it as tedious to see an "old show", that's how things get renewed for the next generations without of silly remakes.
To finish; as said now i know that at least we'll get the b&w stories in hd and that's the blueprint, so with all respect mr, yes for you right now as you'll get what you want, yes for us the "we want em colored too" as we'll get them in blu ray and enjoy them in b&w too, but "no, just no" to blatantly deny the chance to classic doctor who to trascend to the classic b&w cinematography that have been colorized. Good afernoon.

April 16th, 2019 - 6:44pmforgot the list with the colorized films: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_black-and-white_films_that_have_been_colorized
TigerMan1995
April 16th, 2019 - 7:28pmYou just are so used to colour that you’d rather watch the Season 1-6 in Colour. Sure it’s nice but the B&W is the great and original.
Daz
April 16th, 2019 - 7:50pmI’d rather they use the money to animate the missing episodes than colour black and white who. In particular the missing Dalek ones.
That way we get more who to ‘watch’.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 8:30pmI like the idea of having the b&w episode in colour, but after watching the laurel and hardy box set with colorized versions, I think the novelty wears off after a while because I found I’m enjoying the film’s content, how the acting and comedy plays out rather than thinking wow look at the colour. Admittedly these films were colorized a few year go so they have probably improved now. But what I’m saying is that the enjoy comes from story, be it in b&w as is. And Daz your right animate the missing one instead.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 9:11pmHonesty just to keep people happy. Colour the first episode of a unearthly child as a bonus
Lee
April 17th, 2019 - 1:09amMy guess is it would have the opposite effect though. If you colour one episode, people will say “look it can be done with one, so now what about the rest!?”.
You’ll never keep people happy as they’ll always want more these days.
I’ve never understood the need for constantly wanting to change old film/TV programmes. I’m just happy with B&W episodes as they are. I just think some things are best left alone.
If they were originally broadcast in colour and only B&W survived, then I’d agree they need re-colouring. But, I’d rather they just left the B&W episodes as they originally were.
Plus, it’s costly anyway. Use the budget for better restorations as Gordon mentioned.
Pertyay
April 16th, 2019 - 5:38pmLooking forward to this one, I hope the BBC keep making Second Doctor animation reconstructions, and the First Doctor too, the 60s era is my favourite and I’d really love those Blu Ray sets. I wonder if after they’ve released all 26 seasons they’ll re-release the new series in the same style
Rob W
April 16th, 2019 - 5:16pmZavvi have the soundmix as 5….
Rob W
April 16th, 2019 - 5:17pmWhoops, that’s 5.1…
The 14th Doctor!!
April 16th, 2019 - 4:23pmjust pre ordered can’t wait
dalekinium
April 16th, 2019 - 4:20pmAs a very detailed economical and would even dare, ideas for the bbc marketing department and their colleages pushing the next releases, just to push forward this bluray thing, get your economy dept as well to greenlight and commisionate for the classic B&W serials in hd as well as colored, yeah it’s difficult cause of the lost serials rendering a full season impossible as well as “should they just leave it in B&W a la twilight zone blurays? or maybe why not both?”
Seriously fellas, with all the respect being 2019 and almost in the verge of the 56th anniversary it’s incredible how many fans and past workers of the show itself joined to colorise the classic era and have shared their work trought facebook, twitter and other social media but their effort hasn’t been put together and turned into an official release of a blu ray with color, in hd, upscaled and all the grace of the 70’s colored days just like the pertwee seasons were restored.
You know, as even incomplete some hartnell blu ray with a colored option could someday be made and at least just for the fun, include the first 3 serials with extra material as well as leaving an updated collection to hartnell’s intact dalek trilogy (invasion earth and the chase in 2 other separate discs with their special editions extra new material etc) That could be a kickstart to make honor to the original you might say…
But seriously guys just call clayton hickman, ( https://twitter.com/claytonhickman ) kieran highman ( https://twitter.com/The66Ramblers ) and the guy from babel colorur stuart humphryes ( https://twitter.com/StuartHumphryes ) put them to work together with more of their contacts that surely will help just for the love of the series (and to get free copies for themselves) just like the chaps that remade mission to the unknown and there you have your hartnell blu ray even if not a complete season.
Could we get the definitive “the first doctor:early journeys/ the daleks trilogy? (as it equally fits perfectly for being a susan and barbara trilogy anyway) Could we get that at least for the 60th anniversary? just for the joy of those fans that could get to see the lost serials in their original glory and those younger like me that maybe wont see them recovered at all.
That way maybe those in different generations who share the same passion could get to have the option to see the daleks either in their silver and blue 60’s coat or in monochrome before someone finds the master plan.
To the generations that are going away dont worry, the younglings will carry the torch with honor. #ReleaseTheHartnellBluRay 😛
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 4:37pmThey will release seasons 1-6 as sets, a panel with the restoration team confirmed they will be working on the whole classic series including the black and white ones. Whether or not they will recolour stories is unknown but very unlikely due to the costs involved. Personally I couldn’t care less about recoloured Hartnell and Troughton stories, I love the atmosphere of watching those early serials in Black and White. They will fill gaps where stories are missing with animations, telesnaps etc. unless Phil Morris has some more episodes up his sleeve of course.
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 4:51pmI’d rather see them get hired to improve on ambassadors 2-7, mind 2-6 and dinos 1 personally. Doing a full story would take years of work from scratch. At least with ambassadors etc a lot of the work has been done already
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 4:57pmI genuinely couldn’t care less about colouring B&W TV & films. If it was broadcast in B&W then I’m happy to watch it like that.
It’s like when people say they want to see them converted to widescreen. Why? They weren’t filmed or broadcast like that.
Just because you can do it, doesn’t mean you should.
Others will have different opinions, maybe I’m just old fashioned, but I say just leave them how they are.
I don’t even watch these classic episodes in 5.1 as the mixes always seem a little forced to me on mono or stereo programmes. Just my preference though.
Vortexsurfer
April 16th, 2019 - 5:30pmFor the sake of novelty I would quite like to see just the first episode, An Unearthly Child, colourised but I agree it would be time better spent sorting out Invasion of the Dinosaurs Part 1.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 5:40pmRight. Just for the 60th anniversary. Release An Unearthly Child / The Daleks / The Edge of Destruction in Colour. And see what you get. Maybe just colourise the opening episode of an unearthly child
dalekinium
April 16th, 2019 - 6:02pmoh sorry, got excited ian* and barbara daleks trilogy should be a thing, just saw some days ago the full 21 minute video that kieran highman did for specific stories of the first and second doctor eras. Scott has a point, but when you watch that video it gives you a lot of emotions cause the colored lights reflecting on the characters are very vivid, the scenes from the celestial toymaker in color are magestic, and the daleks bits are really awesome, the right pigments of blue and silver like the character options figures.
thanks for the info fellas, i hope to get this bluray as its a landmark for the show itself, and again, just crossing fingers here for the extras to include 1st and 2nd doctor timelines or something like that in the docus 🙂 just to get their scenes to make it to blu ray
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 6:11pmNo. Just no. They were made in black and white so just enjoy them in black and white. Some of my all time favourite movies are in black and white and I would not buy them in colourised formats.
Ollie
April 17th, 2019 - 7:54amNot interested in colourising b/w episodes. More restoration of Pertwee’s episodes and missing episode animations please.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 3:36pmOk. The rest of the boxset looks gorgeous. I love the colour scheme and everything. Discs look amazing. The thing is. Pertwee looks really really bored and dull and his neck is so small. Minor complaint. Also, The Three Doctor could have had some special effects options. That episode really needs it. In fact. I would have paid to have seen Frontier in Space get some too. If they were making these to be the definitive sets. Please take time on getting these out and don’t rush. But then again. I never use the optional special effects so it doesn’t bother me. It’s just a lot of releases (Macra Terror mostly) have let’s put it, Cut a lot of Corners recently. And cut because of time. This is the last time you could do anything with these episodes so make sure it’s 99.99% complete. Not too sure about the behind the sofa guest list. But I never watch them so it doesn’t matter.
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 4:13pmI’ve seen others say they would have liked CGI for Three Doctors and Green Death but I personally don’t see the need for either of those stories.
The ergon
April 16th, 2019 - 6:47pmCGI as an alternative vastly improves those old style and sometimes really ropey effects but i think should be replaced on a separate disc/segregate the two, and not as optional as it often feels like something that is brushed under the carpet.You just know deep down that something is just being covered up and so its easier to accept these were the best effects they could muster at the time. Even on the DVDs i rarely play them with optional effects unless i,m playing to an audience who don,t fully appreciate how TV was made back then and would find it laughable.
dalekinium
April 16th, 2019 - 3:24pmwell that was a bit of a missed chance to include 1st and 2nd next to omega, i mean, this will be the closest we’ll get to see them on bluray (specially hartnell, as at least pat can get 2 more blu rays to pop in.
By the other hand, i really hope that the new docus and extras to include linking scenes from the 63-69 era,at least for planet of the daleks being a “direct sequel” of the original daleks serial.
dalekinium
April 16th, 2019 - 3:28pmwell, maybe on the infold, hopefully the designs i’ve seen on the reviews are amazing, so totally crossing fingers for some artwork of the 3 doctors besides the classic promotional pictures like the disc one.
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 4:06pmNot sure what you mean regarding last chance to see Hartnell and Troughton on Blu ray? There will be Blu ray sets of seasons 1-6.
dalekinium
April 16th, 2019 - 6:11pmdidnt know about those sets scott, so not only the seasons are being made into blu rays,mmm dear dear… well as said before on the other reply, could imagine at least the first serial in color, B&W its awesome but truly as i’ve seen on (very impressive) fan colorizations, the lighting effects and their colors reflecting on characters or surfaces are worth to imagine that it could be done “officially” someday for full serials releases, they can re-release them anyway if by the moment a B&W version exists (thinking about maybe a re-issue of those blu rays with the same cover picking the material from the original release but with an added subtitle or sticker or whatever “now in color and b&w”) … i just dream about that one not that much secretly anymore. 🙂
Daz
April 16th, 2019 - 2:22pmIf anyone still doubts Zoom. I got the last 2 sets from them. They package them really well so no damage and last one arrived day before release because I pre-ordered it. And at £35.09 you can’t go wrong. Sign Up code can be used again and again.
I love the artwork but agree it does look slightly odd. Head too small maybe. Or if it is flipped like some say that might be why.
Roll on Season 26…
David
April 16th, 2019 - 2:31pmI agree, Zoom are brilliant, I only ordered season 18 from them as hmv were in trouble and amazon it was too much money, so I went to them and couldn’t be happier with the condition and price as mentioned!
And S26 will be great! I’d like a Colin Baker or a Peter Davison in between 10 and 26 though but that’s just me 🙂
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 3:15pmYep same experience here, have been ordering from them since season 12 and couldn’t be happier! 🙂
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 3:20pmApparently, there’s another set before Season 26 this year
Daz
April 16th, 2019 - 3:59pmSeason 22 seems likely from stuff I’ve read but I’m happy if we get another set from any Doctors this year
James
April 16th, 2019 - 5:27pmYes there must be another set in between. If you look at the turnaround, we got Season 12 in July last year so within 13 months we will have had 4 sets so it would be extremely unlikely that they would leave a 5 month gap between Season 10 and Season 26. It is likely we’ll get the next one in late September/early October. My money is on Season 22 which would be good for me because I love Colin’s Doctor, and it also means that when we get Season 26 in December we will have at least one season of each Doctor from 3 to 7 on bluray.
Robert Sienicki
April 16th, 2019 - 6:23pmHeard rumours about season 23, so who knows. I ham happy we will get Pertwee season now, and I am still hoping for season 17 in the near future.
The Jamie
April 16th, 2019 - 2:18pmJust pre ordered from Zoom and thanks to the code only had to pay £35
Judooning
April 16th, 2019 - 2:11pmI dont recall seeing this image of the 3rd doctor before. Stands out to me due to it being the version from the Eleven Doctors 5″ figure set!
Tyler Prescott
April 16th, 2019 - 3:27pmExcept this image has a bow tie, not the cravat. This is more The Time Monster than Carnival of Monsters.
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 3:32pmActually it’s from Frontier in Space not the Time Monster. The figure from the 11th Doctor set was from Carnival of Monsters.
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 3:34pmJust realised Tyler I assume you mean the Time Warrior, inc which case yes correct from the promo pics of that story though he never wore the cloak in the story and he had a green shirt in Frontier
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 1:57pmUp on Zoom now £38.99 😉
Kenny
April 16th, 2019 - 1:49pmAs a US fan, I preordered the “Jon Pertwee – Season 4” US edition from Amazon. Odd that for us it seems to be coming out in October instead of July? The other sets come out fairly close together? Do You think this is just a dating error or are they really releasing them that far apart now? I hope not.
TigerMan1995
April 16th, 2019 - 3:49pmIf the UK set is in July, the US SHOULD be August, but maybe they got mixed up. Hopefully it’s brought up to August.
Kenny
April 16th, 2019 - 4:45pmI hope. I can’t wait! October is too far away for some Pertwee on my shelf.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 1:37pmIt would be nice to see new series, sja and torchwood get updated releases, whether that just be on steelbook as I’m longing for a series 4 steelbook
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 1:23pmI’m thinking 11 or 9 will be the next pertwee seeing as those 2 aren’t so challenging restoration wise compared with 7 and 8. Quite probably Admittedly 11 has dinos ep 1 but with using the dvd version as a starting block and restoration techniques having moved forward since then it’s hopefully going to look nicer than the dvd
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 1:32pmI hope that the optional special effects for season 11 will be updated dinosaurs for the invasion of the dinosaurs.
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 1:34pmYes! Dinosaurs is one story that DEFINITELY needs some updated effects! 😀
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 2:07pmThink the costs of redoing the dinosaurs story might be rather a lot.
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 4:45pmCorrect. The cost of doing alternative effects will be extremely expensive. Add on the expensive restoration of dinos ep 1 and it might not be feasible to do both. As much as I’d like alternative effects the priority of the budget should be going towards getting ep 1 the best it’s ever going to look. If the budget comes to an either or there the choice should absolutely go on a colour ep 1
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 7:50pmI definitely don’t think it would ever happen, but if one story really needed updated effects – then that’s the one I would pick! 😀 And I rarely pick the updated effects options, as I always like them as they were broadcast.
But my god do those Dinos look hilariously dodgy in that story! 😀
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 1:22pmCan’t believe the number of complaints about the cover!
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 1:30pmNobody has really complained about it. I just thought it looked a little odd. Looking at the comments, it seems the image is flipped and that’s why it looks a bit strange. Nothing to get cheesed off over though.

April 16th, 2019 - 1:31pmJon just looks a bit too broad, either his chest is too big or his head is too small!

April 16th, 2019 - 1:22pmBest season best artwork! Love it
bryan
April 16th, 2019 - 1:04pmOoh. more Beautiful Box art ,,more Fantastic extras, These Trailers are so lovely and everything is so lovingly done, from the Box/booklet are to the Hard work, scrubbing these up for Blu Ray.
Its interesting it says and Jo said in the trailer, that Planet of the Daleks has Surround sound ,rather than 5.1 ,is there a difference (ignorant Tecchy here)
Wonderful.
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 1:20pmNo difference. 5.1 and Surround Sound are the same thing, just different terms.
2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, centre for dialogue and subwoofer.
Bryan Simcott
April 16th, 2019 - 4:33pmThanks lee. It is gob smacking to think we can have 5.1 for This, it was not long ago, it had a B/W episode. Bet that looks great on Br
DoctorTen
April 16th, 2019 - 8:53pmActually, there a slight difference, technically, but I’m sure not one intended by Jo’s comment. When surround sound systems first came out, it was just a single audio track to both rear speakers to create a surround sound effect. However, 5.1 typically refers to 5 separate audio channels (plus sub-woofer), creating a greater sense of audio perspective behind you as well as in front. This is particularly noticeable with, say, the sound of a helicopter in the background moving from one side to the other.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 12:59pmIt looks as if they’ve reversed that image of Pertwee on the cover art.
Hope they change it before release.
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 1:04pmIt’s promo artwork. It will be sorted for the final version
Sean Bassett
April 16th, 2019 - 12:51pmGreat news, but they’ve put the wrong age certificate on the box art. It should be the ’12’ certificate, not PG, because one of the discs is rated 12.
TigerMan1995
April 16th, 2019 - 3:59pmTwo of the discs are, unless Frontier is also.
Either way it should be 12 on the main cover.
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 12:49pmGreat! I love Season 10! Just pre-ordered on Amazon UK as the link for Zoom just takes me to all the Doctor Who releases, so can’t see it yet.
Will probably cancel it and order from Zoom again though, as they did a great job on getting me out a season 18 boxset even though I only ordered a few hours before release.
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 12:54pmYa I can’t for it and it comes out in 8th July that’s when my birthday is and I’m so happy and I can’t wait for it
booboo
April 16th, 2019 - 12:58pmfor whatever reason zoom don’t seem to be on the ball with these releases and probably loose a large amount of orders because of it.
Scott Martin
April 16th, 2019 - 1:08pmZoom are very on the ball when it comes to dispatching in time though and that’s why I will be holding out for them to put it up 😉 they have a loyal customer here i expect others will wait for them too
booboo
April 16th, 2019 - 1:12pmThe vast majority of these sets are ordered in the 1st few hours, mostly from Amazon and then people move on.
Zoom were on the press release for the 1st time so they should have had it up ready, many people have never heard of zoom so if they want the big business they need to be ready.
This is even more important now as Amazon have gone straight in at £39.99
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 2:23pmCancelled with Amazon. Just ordered from Zoom for £35 using the signup code again. I’m surprised they are still letting people use that on every order though.
Sons of Skaro
April 16th, 2019 - 12:41pmOhhhh yeaaaahhh!
I want it now.
I’m really loving these box sets. Currently on the Warriors Gate disc at the moment.
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 12:30pmDue for release the day after Jon’s 100th birthday. I’d imagine they wouldn’t want this getting delayed. With the 24th of June date Hmv had listed I’m hopeful this time that they have actually waited till it’s ready
DPHill
April 16th, 2019 - 5:39pmIt seems that way – time will tell, then again not only does it always, but Troughton’s Macra Terror was released on his 99th birthday – imagine if they pull the Pertwee date off – we may very well see the next animnation for Troughton’s or even – finger’s crossed – Season 6! I think the next animation as a DVD is more likely than a collection installment
DPHill
April 16th, 2019 - 12:26pmInitially not very warm toward the cover – Pertwee looks strange (anyone think that too?) – I was hoping for red but actually green is very nice; good see his sonic too! Sad that Delgado is not in the front – he must be on season 8 & 9 or that would be sad; hope he’s on Frontier in Space disc. Anyone know if keeping up with the Jones’s is a full version of the sequel teased as the announcement? And is Death of the Doctor upscaled at all?
Really hope the Sarah Jane adventures and torchwood get this treatment too. Can’t wait to get this and especially on Pertwees 100th- hope they get it on properly for this one as it’s a nice tribute
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 12:51pmI did think his shoulders and head do look a bit odd! His shoulders seem a bit hunched up. 😀
Lee
April 16th, 2019 - 12:57pmJust looked at it again. Think it’s more his head that looks a bit strange. It’s like when they CGI a face onto another person’s body and it doesn’t quite look realistic. Plus, it’s not the best expression of Jon’s to pick.
But, not going to stop me from buying it! 😀
Gordon
April 16th, 2019 - 1:00pmThe textless artwork version does look a lot better. Death of the doctor was filmed in hd so it will be hd on the disc. Delgado will probably be on s8 seeing as he’s in every story
DoctorTen
April 16th, 2019 - 9:00pmDeath of the Doctor shouldn’t need upscaling as it was shot in HD in the first place (I believe that SJA was filmed in HD from Series 3 onwards, and this story was from Series 4).
Anonymous
April 16th, 2019 - 12:26pmOl, you’re telling me that this box set includes a multi doctor story, a huge milestone for the show and it doesn’t have updated sound and effects?
Yeah, thank’s but no!!
Would have got this otherwise.

April 16th, 2019 - 2:39pmBang and I’m sorted, £35 Zoom pre order was what I was waiting for (though ordered with Amazon as soon as it was listed just to cover myself lol, will cancel that now) looks fabulous as usual.
And I love Zoom, they’ve never let me down.

April 16th, 2019 - 12:16pmI still really want them to re-release season 12 for those of us who didn’t get it.

April 16th, 2019 - 2:32pmHonestly, I can’t see it happening. I think people might be disappointed if they are waiting on a re-release. Some people have emailed the BBC, and they did say they were only going to be limited releases in the UK. Not sure why the BBC decided to do that for the UK, but that’s their decision.
Your best bet of getting it now is to pick up the US version. That doesn’t seem to be a limiters release so far. Not ideal, but at least it’s better than nothing if you really want to get.
I don’t know if they are region locked on the US version though, maybe somebody else knows about that.
You could always pick it up and sell it “IF” the UK version ever does get a re-release.

April 16th, 2019 - 2:34pm*LIMITED release!
I wish there was an edit button for my clumsy fingers! 😀

April 16th, 2019 - 9:02pmBy all accounts the US release is not region locked. I’ve seen this confirmed on several forums.

April 16th, 2019 - 12:12pmSeason 26 is the next set I think, but in terms of the next Pertwee set; I think Season 7 would be a good choice!

April 16th, 2019 - 12:25pm7 is a while off. Ambassadors needs a lot of work and there is none of the 3 main s7 regulars left in terms of getting new extras. Russel Minton said recently he hasn’t looked at what new can be done extras wise for that season so I’d take that as a sign it’s a couple of years off
Who Knows
April 16th, 2019 - 12:07pmBeautiful promotional advert – there’s a reference to “Devil’s End”, I wonder if Season Eight will be the next Pertwee Box Set to be released . . .
