Doctor Who: The Daleks in Colour Limited Edition Blu-ray Steelbook - 1

Doctor Who: The Daleks in Colour Limited Edition Blu-ray Steelbook

Originally transmitted from December 1963 to February 1964, The Daleks introduced one of the Doctor’s most formidable and enduring foes. The story follows the very first crew of the TARDIS as they land in a petrified forest on an alien planet. Determined to explore, the Doctor (William Hartnell) leads his companions into the metal city, where they discover danger at every corner and what will become his deadliest enemy, the mutant Daleks.

The seven original 25 minute episodes have now been colourised and weaved together into a 75 minute blockbuster. With brand new sound and a new score – created by Mark Ayres – The Daleks has been gloriously updated, whilst ensuring the original classic story remains as thrilling as it was when it was first seen back in 1963.

This release also includes the original seven episodes on DVD in black & white, as they were first broadcast plus a 15 minute exclusive featurette and all special features from the previous release.

Credits:

Starring William Hartnell, Carole Ann Ford, Jacqueline Hill and William Russell.

Written by Terry Nation.

Directed by Christopher Barry and Richard Martin.

As they travel together through time, encountering new adversaries, the Doctor shows her things beyond imagination. The trip of a lifetime begins!

SERIES 2

Doctor Who: The Power of the Doctor — premiere in London
Doctor Who: The Power of the Doctor

A time slot for Jodie Whittaker’s final episode of Doctor Who has been revealed.

Fans will know that the star’s regeneration episode ‘The Power of the Doctor’ will be airing later this month on October 23.

The BBC has now confirmed that the adventure will air at 7.30pm that evening, lasting 90 minutes until 9pm.

The episode’s trailer was released last week, where the Master (Sacha Dhawan) warns the Doctor of “the end of your existence”, while we also get a glimpse of Whittaker’s regeneration scene.

The episode’s full synopsis reads: “Who is attacking a speeding bullet train on the edges of a distant galaxy? Why are seismologists going missing from 21st century Earth? Who is defacing some of history’s most iconic paintings?

“Why is a Dalek trying to make contact with the Doctor? And just what hold does the mesmeric Rasputin have over Tsar Nicholas in 1916 Russia? The Doctor faces multiple threats… and a battle to the death.”

The episode will see a number of returning faces alongside the Doctor and Yaz (Mandip Gill), including Tegan (Janet Fielding), Ace (Sophie Aldred), Kate Stewart (Jemma Redgrave) and Vinder (Jacob Anderson).

The next incarnation of the Doctor is due to be played by Ncuti Gatwa, with Russell T Davies returning to oversee the series for its next era, including the upcoming 60th anniversary specials.

Those will also see the return of David Tennant’s Doctor alongside companion Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate.

The series 13 specials including The Power of the Doctor can be pre ordered here!
