Colony In Space. Written by Malcolm Hulke, this is still quite a relevant tale of stripmining and greed and blind obedience.
this is the diffenrence between old and new Who really, the writers had their own bugbears (ecology, workers rights etc) and worked them into the scripts with a deft touch (mostly, The Sunmakers cough cough) whereas the new writers are merely hacks writing to a formula, though i shouldn't complain as no doubt this US redo will make them look like Joyce

AAAnyway.

Pertwee, Delgado (and Helen Worth!!) what's not to like??

So, with the full stories that still exist that have not been announced for release...

•The Fourth Doctor: Shada - existing footage to form part of the provisionally entitled Legacy Boxed Set alongside documentary More Than Thirty Years In The TARDIS
...what do people think will be the last of the classic releases on DVD?

A few years ago, because of it's classic nature, I would have put large amounts of money on 'The Deadly Assassin' being the final release. And then they went and released it!

A few months ago, because of it's title, I would have put large amounts of money of 'The Greatest Show in the Galaxy' being the final release. And then they announce the release date for July!!

Now, I think I am leaning towards 'Terror of the Zygons' being the final release

I think Terror of the Zygons will be released to coincide with their upcoming appearance in the spring.

The last release may well be a reconstructed Tenth Planet or Ice Warriors.

I'd say Tenth Planet with an animated version of episode 4. Hopefully animation techniques will become more cost effective in future which would allow them animate the likes of Power of the Daleks and Web of Fear.

Blu-ray releases of the two Cushing Dalek movies would also be very nice.

I'm reading the new edition of the Target Tenth Planet novel at the mo'. Great stuff.

Animated episodes of missing adventures would be a dream come true ( apart from finding the originals somewhere that is )

Remaking some of the missing stories with Matt Smith would be nice as in some ways he's quite simillar to Patrick Troughton.

The Web of Fear would make a terrific two parter.
