Do think the sub heading should have been ' The Tardis - Inside the Doctor's wife'

This is a rip off. Just upscale your dvds. It was never filmed in HD.

Are they going to do this with every season? If not it's a waste of time.

New docs on Sontaran Experiment and Revenge of the Cybermen - two of the worst Baker stories.

I can only see this of interest to those who haven't bought the dvds.

Note to BBC Worldwide.

There's no need to announce that you are making an announcement a month in advance only for it to be the same stuff you've released previously.

You're not f*cking Arrow Video!

I don't see the downside here, personally.
Happy to upgrade myself.

More TARGET mis-prints

'The Ambassadors Of Death' must have been novelised by Lucio Fulci, if "The same brown-gloved hand took his eyes"!


Meanwhile, the control room has been invaded by aquatic mammals
