'Genesis Of The Daleks'

Did you spot the re-used Ice Warrior costume during part 2, representing one of the mutant creatures produced by Davros in his experiments.?

I think that counts Dire out.

I do think they have re-watch value, both the stories and the special features. Once you decide you like them (hopefully you do) then i'm sure you'll watch them all several times.

The blu of spearhead doesnt have the extras of the DVd but it has a documentary you can only get on the blu ray.

BBC Worldwide are apparently sending surveys to those who bought Power online asking how they feel about future animations.

"In this short survey we'd like to know what you thought of 'Power of the Daleks', and how you would feel about further animations. "

Selected questions:
"If the BBC commissioned more animations of unaired or lost Doctor Who episodes, one option would be to edit the original stories into shorter versions for the purposes of the animation. How would you feel about this hypothetical situation?"

""Another option might be to combine live action scenes from the original televised episodes (where available) with animated sections in areas where no original film still exists. How would you feel about this hypothetical situation?"

"Are there any unaired or lost episodes that you would particularly like to see animated in the future? If so, please list them below."

I don't mind the idea of combining them really but they can bugger off with shortening them. Looks like we're in for more anyway.

We are in total agreement...for a change.

Unless there's something on the horizon we don't know about, as in a story animated already, it seems unlikely we'll get a new release this year.

I can imagine one perhaps next Autumn when series 11 is airing unless they rush release the series 11 box set in time for Christmas. That's the market they will want to aim at.

Of course i'm only guesstimating though.

It's not only people who bought the online version of POTD. It's part of the BBC fan panel, which anyone can join - https://www.bbcworldwidefanpanel.com/ You need to register, and then every few weeks you are sent a new survey about a BBC show. I have been sent ones about the Christmas episode of 'Sherlock' and 'Class'

I've just completed it. Took about 10 minutes

Pretty much what I said, although my language wasn't as colourful!
