About this deal

The Doctor’s separated from Steven and Vicki for most of this one, but that may have been to spotlight the two companions as they get to know each other. The comfortable back and forth as seen through the first and second season especially is a testament to the superb writing as well as its lead actors. The quality of sound and vision is remarkably good considering the age of the episodes and watching them in this quality on a big-screen TV is certainly a very different experience to watching them on the 12 inch screen with poor reception we had when I was a kid. Give-A-Show Slides: The Give-A-Show set featured 112 slides over 16 stories that played out like short comic strips.

The disc's are NOT region coded and the episodes will play on most (if not all) North American region-A/1 Blu-ray players.Opening the set, PLANET OF GIANTS with its INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN influence still manages to delight and impress with its over-sized sets and gargantuan fauna. All the DVD extras have been ported over in standard definition from the DVD set so you're not missing anything. In some cases, visual effects have been improved - improved exterior shots of the Pharos Project were used to replace models in some instances, including brand-new location shots filmed using drones.

Additionally, new features such as Behind the Sofa are produced in HD, and where possible previously unreleased versions of serials, such as the omnibus edition of Genesis of the Daleks, are included as well. million viewers, the highest in the series to date; it maintained high viewership across the six weeks. Tales of Isop - Featuring William Russell, Maureen O'Brien, Martin Jarvis, Verity Lambert, Richard Martin, John Wood (Designer) and Sonia Markham (Make-up Designer).Picture restoration has again been completed by Peter Crocker/ SVS and they have done a superb job especially in the context of the age of the material.

Coming Soon: The Rescue/The Romans - A trailer for the next two stories, previously available on Full Circle, State of Decay and Warrior's Gate. Audio Commentary - Featuring William Russell, Christopher Barry (Director), Raymond Cusick (Designer) and moderated by Toby Hadoke. This is a list of Bonus Features available on the original DVD releases but not ported over to this Blu-ray release.

Together they face off against the dreaded Daleks, the marauding Mechonoids, the ant-like Zarbi and the meddling Monk, while visiting fantastic alien worlds and turbulent times in the Earth’s history.

Even if the budget had somehow allowed for the stretch of animating the two episodes (it doesn’t – Richard Bignell’s been clear enough about that. I heartily recommend getting this box set and enjoying it episode by episode even more so than story by story. Of course, some of that’s the writing, but some of it’s also how O’Brien carried herself as Vicki, refusing to be a useless, screaming hostage, I salute her for that. Sur le reste du contenu, rien à redire, les disques fonctionnent bien, et c'est plaisant de pouvoir avoir les arcs 009 à 017 (Planet of Giants à The Time Medler) en moins compressé, et par conséquent de bien meilleure qualité. Whilst it might not have the head-spinning effect that it possessed in 1965 due to a rather turgid third episode, there is still much to like – particular the sprightly performance of CARRY ON film stalwart, Peter Butterworth as the Meddling Monk.The Lost Twelve Seconds - Twelve seconds from the fourth episode are still missing, excised by overseas censors prior to recovery of the print.
